information assets that are being generated in
various forms. It enables enhanced insights for

- Velocity Every minute, hours of test data is
being designed, authored, executed, logged, and
processed. The rate at which data gets generated
is unfathomable. - Volume Everyday almost 2 quintillion bytes test
data that equals to 40000000GB data gets
generated. - Variety Data gets generated even through
different types of test data such as performance
testing, functional testing, security testing, or
any kind of testing. - Veracity The test data generated via various
sources can be structured and unstructured. This
data needs categorizing, analysis and
visualization to make it relevant and usable. - Value Value can be derived from Big Data, which
can happen only when the data is structured and
streamlined. - Relevance of Big Data Testing for enterprises
- With Big Data Testing, major amount of testing
effort is spent on data validation rather than
testing the system. To overcome this and minimize
the efforts there are different ways to process
big data. - Testing Strategy Draw better test strategy that
automates the process to collect valid data in
required format (structured format) to analyze
and understand. The test automation strategy must
be in line with the ultimate business objectives.

meet customer expectations/requirements. - Performance Testing Test the performance to
gauge the Speed, Scalability, Stability under
variety of data Structured, Unstructured and
semi-structured. It involves processing large

and monitor the time consumed under varying data.
The goal is to find the defects and delete the
blockers that might affect the performance. - Read Full Blog at
