WHAT IS SOFTWARE TESTING ?

• Software is a set of instructions or programs
  that tell a computer what to do. It can be
  divided into two main categories ie., system
  software and application software.
• Testing is the process of determining how
  effective something is.
• Software testing is a process, to evaluate the
  functionality of a software application with an
  intent to find whether the developed software met
  the specified requirements or not and to identify
  the defects to ensure that the product is
  defect-free in order to produce a quality product.

STATIC TESTING
DYNAMIC TESTING

• It is also known as Verification in Software
  Testing. Verification is the process, to ensure
  that whether we are building the product right
  i.e., to verify the requirements which we have
  and to verify whether we are developing the
  product accordingly or not.

• It is also known as Validation in Software
  Testing.
• Validation is a dynamic process of testing the
  real product.
• Validation is the process, whether we are
  building the right product i.e., to validate the
  product which we have developed is right or not.

BRIEF EXPLANATION ABOUT SOFTWARE TESTING

• Software testing is the process of verifying a
  system with the purpose of identifying any
  errors, gaps or missing requirement versus the
  actual requirement. Software testing is broadly
  categorised into two types - functional testing
  and non-functional testing.
• When to start test activities Testing should be
  started as early as possible to reduce the cost
  and time to rework and produce software that is
  bug-free so that it can be delivered to the
  client. However, in Software Development Life
  Cycle (SDLC), testing can be started from the
  Requirements Gathering phase and continued till
  the software is out there in productions. It also
  depends on the development model that is being
  used. For example, in the Waterfall model,
  testing starts from the testing phase which is
  quite below in the tree, but in the V-model,
  testing is performed parallel to the development
  phase.
• Testing deadlines
• Completion of test case execution cycle
• Completion of functional testing and code
  coverage to an agreed limit
• No high-priority bug is found and the rate of
  finding bug declines after a certain level
• Management decision A software test process
  consists of the activities listed below
• Planning and control
• Analysis and design
• Implementation and execution
