Bug Reporting

Strategies For Software Test Documentation by Suriya G of Vishwak.com for Anna University Workshop on testing

A defect life cycle outlines the journey a defect takes from being reported to being resolved. It varies by organization and project. Common states include: New - A potential defect is reported but not yet validated. Assigned - The defect is assigned to a development team to address but not yet resolved. Closed - The final state where the defect is closed after being retested and verified as fixed. Reopened - If the defect is not actually fixed, the QA team can reopen the defect.

A brief that includes the following: - Software Testing - Quality Assurance - Quality Control - Types of Testing - Levels of Software Testing - Types of Performance Testing - API - Verification & Validation - Test Plan & Testing Strategy - Agile & Waterfall - Software Development Life Cycle - Career Path

Functional testing is a type of software testing that validates software functions or features based on requirements specifications. It involves testing correct and incorrect inputs to check expected behaviors and outputs. There are different types of functional testing including unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and acceptance testing. Testers write test cases based on requirements and specifications to test the functionality of software under different conditions.

The document discusses the phases of the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC). It begins by introducing the group members and defining software testing as a process to find bugs by executing a program. It then outlines the six main phases of the STLC: 1) Requirements analysis to understand requirements and identify test cases, 2) Test planning to create test plans and strategies, 3) Test case development to write test cases and scripts, 4) Environment setup to prepare the test environment, 5) Test execution and bug reporting to run tests and log defects, and 6) Test cycle closure to review testing artifacts and lessons learned. Each phase is described in 1-2 sentences with its activities, deliverables, and examples provided.

Priority and severity are key components of a bug report. Priority indicates the order in which bugs should be fixed and how much retesting time is required. Severity refers to a bug's impact on the application. Testers set priority based on retesting needs and how much testing is blocked. Severity is less likely to change and refers to functionality impact. Different combinations of priority (low, medium, high) and severity (critical, major, moderate, minor, cosmetic) indicate different types of bugs.

Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test. I hope this ppt will help u to learn about software testing.

The document discusses regression testing, including its definition, benefits, when it should be applied, types, techniques, challenges and best practices. Regression testing involves re-running all tests to ensure new code changes have not introduced new bugs or caused existing bugs to reappear. It helps find bugs early, increases chances of detecting bugs, ensures correctness and that fixed issues do not occur again.

Testing involves finding errors in a program. The goal is to assume a program contains errors and test to find as many as possible. Different testing techniques include white box testing by developers and black box testing by testers. Testing levels include unit, integration, system, and user acceptance testing. Developers and testers have different goals - developers want code to work while testers try to make code fail. Good development practices from a tester's view include doing own acceptance tests, fixing bugs, writing helpful error messages, and not artificially adding bugs. Good relationships between project managers, developers and testers help ensure quality.

The document contains interview questions and answers related to software testing. Some key points: - It differentiates between QA and QC, describing QA as process-oriented and preventative, while QC is product-oriented and focused on defect detection. - A bug is defined as an error in a computer program that prevents correct functioning or results. A test case is a set of inputs, execution conditions, and expected outputs used to test specific objectives or conditions of a program. - The purpose of a test plan is to outline the testing strategy, scope, approach, responsibilities and more to guide testing for a project. - Relationships between testers and developers involve the developer writing code and sending it

The document provides an overview of software testing basics, including definitions of key terms like testing, debugging, errors, bugs, and failures. It describes different types of testing like manual testing, automation testing, unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and more. It also covers test planning, test cases, test levels, who should test, and the importance of testing in the software development life cycle.

The document contains responses to questions about software testing terms and concepts. Key points discussed include: - Cyclomatic complexity is a white box testing type that analyzes the complexity of code. - Monkey testing tests software without test cases by randomly interacting with screens and inputs to find bugs. - Severity refers to a bug's seriousness while priority refers to which bug should be fixed first. - A login screen bug example is provided where severity is low but priority is high due to usability issues. - System testing is a type of black box testing that tests the full application and includes functionality, regression, and performance testing.

The document discusses various basic interview questions for manual testing. It covers the differences between functional and non-functional requirements, severity and priority, types of severity levels, priority vs severity, bucket testing, entry and exit criteria, concurrency testing, code coverage, branch coverage, high vs low level test cases, localization testing, risk analysis, two tier vs three tier architectures, static vs dynamic testing, use case diagrams, web application testing phases, unit, interface and integration testing types, alpha, beta and gamma testing, and security testing methods like black box, white box, penetration testing and input validation.

Testing is the process of validating and verifying software to ensure it meets specifications and functions as intended. There are different levels of testing including unit, integration, system, and acceptance testing. An important part of testing is having a test plan that outlines the test strategy, cases, and process to be followed. Testing helps find defects so the product can be improved.
