Best Practices in Software Testing
You know, testing software is extremely important in development. It makes sure the end product is top-notch. In this article, I'm gonna discuss five important testing terms: automated testing, performance testing, security testing, usability testing, and regression testing.
Automated testing is very popular recently because of its extremely efficient and dependable. You utilize these as wellls to execute in an automated manner execute test cases, conserves time, and prevents those foolish mishaps at bay.
There was an instance where I had a sizeable quantity of laborious hand-on testing that as wellk an eternity, so I converted to automated testing using Selenium. I quickly created this testing suite that zipped throughout everything in a brief period of minutes rather than hours, and it improved tests much faster and accurate as well.
You have to do performance testing to find any large problems and make sure the software can manage the heavy load it's expected to face. It's all about checking how the application acts and how stable it stays under different situations.
I can recall a project where the app was running slower than usual during busy times. I used Apache JMeter to simulate the heavy usage and locate the actual issue. Then we fixed it and increased the app's speed large-time.
Security testing is super important, like securing a house so no unwanted guests infiltrate. It's about finding and fixing the security flaws in the software.
Back in the day, I dealt with a project that was way too prone to those SQL injection attacks. I used Open Web Application Security Project-Zed Attack Proxy to eradicate those issues, and the dev team got it fixed. It's a message in why security testing is such a large deal in software.
User testing is like making sure application feels good in the hand of someone who doesn't even know application that well, you know? It's checking out the app's user interface, how easy it is navigate, and the entire user experience.
So, I participated on User testing for a mobile app, gave my opinion about the user user interface, and then the programming team used those ideas to produce the app way more accessible.
Backward compatibility testing is where you produce sure that new versions don't mess things up by creating new glitches or breaking old features. It's just retesting everything to ensure it works as planned.
There was this mess-up where an version included by a programmer got in a group of glitches. I used the Continuous Integration tool to get Backward compatibility testing automated execution, catching the flaws early like a investigator.
