Software Testing Updates

Unit testing is not a new concept; it’s been there since the early days of programming. But sometimes we see cases where unit tests fail. One of the reasons for this can be a poor implementation or lack of best practices. If you are also struggling with the same problem then you should read the keys that are mentioned below that will help you in ensuring the success of the unit test. What is Unit Testing? Unit testing is one of the software testing types in which developers use manual or automated methods to verify the smallest single testable unit/module of the software. It is done to check whether the functionality, usability, security expectations are fulfilled or not. What are the keys to a successful unit test? Below mentioned are some of the keys to a successful unit test: 1. Ensure that your code is strong: Many times we see cases where code gets broken and test gets failed or even worst does not get executed due to this broken code. 2. Ensure that your code is easy to understa...

  Functional testing is a form of software testing which is examined against operational requirement. It mostly defines black box testing and it is not considered about the source code. Each and every functionality of the system analyzed by providing Input, check output and comparing actual result with the expected outcome. It also ensures to deliver bug-free Solution that has all functionalities working as custom requirements Types of Functional Testing : ·          Unit Testing ·          Component Testing ·          Smoke Testing ·          Integration Testing ·          Regression Testing ·          Sanity Testing ·          System Testing ·        ...

  Python is currently more popular than other contemporary programming languages. The interpreted and object-oriented programming language can be hugely popular among programmers across the planet as a strong server side scripting language. Since Python enables developers to express concepts by writing less and readable code, it becomes a lot easier for developers to decrease the development time significantly. At the same time, the programmers have choice to use popular web frameworks such as Django to make high-performing and complex Python web applications rapidly. However, the developers still will need to appraise the appearance, feel and functionality of the Python web application thoroughly to boost its popularity and profitability. Whilst studying the net applications the developers have option to select from a number of browser automation tools such as PAMIE, PyXPCOM, windmill, SST and Selenium. But most programmers prefer Selenium to other frameworks to check their own ...
