Alpha testing

Alpha testing is a type of software testing that involves a group of external users testing the software to ensure that any detected bugs or issues are resolved before the software is released to the public.The “alpha” in alpha testing stands for “alpha version”, which typically indicates a preliminary or incomplete version of the software. A successful alpha test will identify problems that can cause the software to crash or become unreliable when it is made available to the public. To find those problems, the team conducting the alpha usually provides detailed feedback to the software developers who created the software.

What is UAT (User Acceptance Testing)

Before a product is made available to the public or an organization, User Acceptance Testing, or UAT, is an essential stage of software testing that ensures that it satisfies user requirements and functions as expected. UAT is the final stage of software development and is typically carried out by a customer or end user.

UAT, or User Acceptance Testing, is a process where users test software or other IT systems in order to validate that it meets the specified requirements and satisfies their needs. It involves testing for usability, performance, accuracy, consistency, and other criteria as determined by the end user or customer. The goal is to ensure that the system meets its goals and that it is acceptable for deployment in the customer's environment.

Beta Testing

Beta testing is the process of testing a pre-release version of software or hardware in a real-world or laboratory environment with real users. It typically happens toward the end of the development phase, when the majority of the coding has been finished and the majority of bugs have been ironed out. Beta testing is an invaluable tool for software and hardware developers and provides them with a realistic picture of how their product will be received in the real world. 

Earlier I had written about Software Testing Life Cycle to improve the quality of the product and also automated testing tool, today I will share my thoughts related ‘Testing Methodology’ which I experienced while I performed the tests. There are primarily two testing methodology to test software today I will discuss about the ‘Black Box Testing’ method. 

Application Programming Interface (API) testing is a sort of software testing that examines APIs, or application programming interfaces. These testing services attest to the accuracy, functionality, security, and dependability of an application. When running test cases with the aid of API testing tools, QA teams gain from API automation. You utilise software to submit requests to the API, retrieve output, and record the system's answer rather than utilising typical user inputs (the keyboard) and outputs. 

We all know Managing Large Scale Projects are very challenging. As we face many challenges that an organization faces while deploying and managing the computer software testing process (STLC) software testing life cycle these challenges can be overcome using the following best practices available in the testing industries.

Software Testing | Security Testing

What is security testing?

Security testing is a type of software testing that identifies vulnerabilities in systems and ensures that the system's data and resources are secure from potential intruders. It ensures that the software system and application are free of threats or risks that could result in a loss. Security testing of any system is focused on identifying all potential loopholes and weaknesses in the system that could result in the loss of information or the organization's reputation.

What is Cross Browser Testing?

We've all probably noticed that some websites do not display correctly in some browsers, leading us to believe that the website is malfunctioning. However, as soon as you visit the website in a different browser, it loads without any issues. Therefore, this behaviour explains why a website is compatible with many browsers.

What is React Native?

React Native is a powerful and versatile open source technology for building mobile applications. It enables developers to create native apps for both iOS and Android using the same source code. React Native has become increasingly popular due to its cross-platform capabilities and user-friendly interface.

Introduction to Selenium:

Selenium is most popular open-source automation testing tool. It allows testers to create automated tests in different programming languages to check the functionality of web applications because it offers compatibility with a variety of programming languages, including Java, JavaScript, Python, C#, and more. Various operating systems and browsers are compatible with Selenium.

On multiple browsers and operating systems, it may be used to test how well web applications work. The Selenium framework helps testers to provide test cycles more rapidly by automating repetitious test cases. Selenium integrates well with CI/CD pipelines and can help with a dependable, bug-free release deployment workflow.
