Quality Assurance (QA):-
QA is a means of preventing mistakes or defects in
manufactured products and avoiding
bugs when delivering a project or a product to the client.
It is also a mind set that focuses on doing everything as well
as possible.
QA requires high levels of interaction and an ability to
understand the needs of multiple people,
groups and stakeholders to make effective decisions on
quality.
Requires a passion for excellence and an ability to
work jointly with teams.
QA should be able to answer if the business requirements
are an accurate reflection of the
customer's needs?
And should represent the customer and present their
needs regarding measurable business value.
Testing:-
Software testing is a set of activities that involves planning
and preparing on what and how to
test the software.
Role of Test Engineer/Analyst is finding defects and
validating the software against the
requirements.
Testing is also a process of validation and verification:-
Validation: Answering to the question "Have we built the right software?" is validation.
Verification: Answering to the question "Have we built the software right?" is verification.
Software Testing Methods:-
There are two types of testing 1. Black box testing and 2. White box testing.
Black box testing:- Testing does not require understanding of
internal logic of the software. It purely validates the output of
the software based on the inputs.
Test inputs are derived from business rules using techniques
like Equivalence Partitioning and
Boundary Value Analysis.
White box testing:- This kind of testing needs understanding internal code, underlying algorithms and is
usually performed by developers.
