Learn the Fundamental Testing Process through Software Testing Training Summary: Software testing is an important activity in a software development life cycle done to verify and validate the software, its quality and reliability for real time work. There is a fundamental process of testing which the testers usually use to validate the software system against specific conditions to ensure it meets the specific design requirements and is best applicable to the needs of the customer. Through software testing training one can get the best knowledge of this process and various requirements and activities to be done in the process for best software verification. ************************************************************************************* Article: Software testing is an important activity in a software development life cycle. The process is done with an intention of improving the quality of software, verifying and validating the software to ensure it meets the specific design requirements and for estimating the software reliability for work in real time. The basic intention here is to provide the customer with software which is reliable and best applicable to the specific need for which it has been developed. There are different types of testing processes like regression testing, black box testing, usability testing, white box testing etc., adopted for testing of different kinds of software but there is only one basic fundamental process that is adopted in every organization for software testing. In order to learn this fundamental test process of software validation, one needs to enroll to a software testing training course that can provide a learner basic understanding of the necessity of testing and also the essential steps taken in the fundamental test process. A software testing course for training individuals on fundamental testing process would be focused on the following steps. These are as follows. Test Planning and Control In the fundamental software testing process, individuals are imparted the knowledge of planning the activities and controlling the software verification process. Students are taught about the five major tasks to be done in initial phase of the process to ensure that the process is well-planned and better controlled. First and foremost being the determination of scope and objectives of the process. Here the learners would be taught on how to understand the real purpose of testing a software project and what would be steps to determine the scope of this project. Following this one would be taught of determining the test approach that would be most appropriate to validate a specific kind of software, how the test strategy is prepared and ways to determine resources required for testing. Designing the test cases and determination of the finishing level for testing is also taught in this course. Analysis & Design Software testing training would teach an individual how to analyze the software system requirements and design the tests. Hence, Identification of test cases, designing the tests and test environment and identification of infrastructure and tools required for testing are some of the things one will get to learn in this course. Test Implementation and Execution


Test case is a set of conditions under which the application may or may not work correctly while test data refers to the input that is provided to the software for testing purpose. In software testing training the individuals are provided knowledge of how to design these test cases and create the test data for tests. Test automation, creating software test suites for execution of the test and implementation and verification of the test environment are some of the few essential things that are taught in this training course. Apart from this, the final procedures like test criteria evaluation process and all the test closure activities during the final stages of the process are also taught in this training course and hence for this reason, one should definitely go for this kind of training where the detailed process of testing is taught to the learner. ************************************************************************************* Author Box: TOPS Technologies is a leader in software testing training offering the best courses for those looking to possess a career in software testing field. The courses are designed keeping in mind the software testing jobs and hence are excellent sources of learning for the freshers and students willing to become software testers.
