Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test.[1] Software testing can also provide an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software implementation. Test techniques include, but are not limited to the process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding software bugs (errors or other defects).
Software testing can be stated as the process of validating and verifying that a computer program/application/product:
- meets the requirements that guided its design and development,
- works as expected,
- can be implemented with the same characteristics,
- and satisfies the needs of stakeholders.
Software testing, depending on the testing method employed, can be implemented at any time in the software development process. Traditionally most of the test effort occurs after the requirements have been defined and the coding process has been completed, but in the Agile approaches most of the test effort is on-going. As such, the methodology of the test is governed by the chosen software development methodology
In current software development situation where agile approached is adopted, a few new testing strategies have been developed or reintroduce. Therefore a detail and through review about this strategies need to be conducted and evaluated. The TWO software testing strategies are:
1. Exploratory Testing
2. Grey Box Testing
Instruction:
In a group of 4 students choose only one topic to be explore in detail about this strategies. Develop a review documentation to understand this strategies. You must refers/uses min 25 literature from index paper or journal, books or other relevany material to come development the reviews.
