Software development... for all? (keynote at ICSOFT'2024)miso_uam
Our world runs on software. It governs all major aspects of our life. It is an enabler for research and innovation, and is critical for business competitivity. Traditional software engineering techniques have achieved high effectiveness, but still may fall short on delivering software at the accelerated pace and with the increasing quality that future scenarios will require.
To attack this issue, some software paradigms raise the automation of software development via higher levels of abstraction through domain-specific languages (e.g., in model-driven engineering) and empowering non-professional developers with the possibility to build their own software (e.g., in low-code development approaches). In a software-demanding world, this is an attractive possibility, and perhaps -- paraphrasing Andy Warhol -- "in the future, everyone will be a developer for 15 minutes". However, to make this possible, methods are required to tweak languages to their context of use (crucial given the diversity of backgrounds and purposes), and the assistance to developers throughout the development process (especially critical for non-professionals).
In this keynote talk at ICSOFT'2024 I presented enabling techniques for this vision, supporting the creation of families of domain-specific languages, their adaptation to the usage context; and the augmentation of low-code environments with assistants and recommender systems to guide developers (professional or not) in the development process.

2. What is Testing?
Testing is the process of evaluating a system or its component(s) with the
intent to find that whether it satisfies the specified requirements or not. This
activity results in the actual, expected and difference between their results. In
simple words testing is executing a system in order to identify any gaps,
errors or missing requirements in contrary to the actual desire or
requirements.
Testing can be defined as “A process of analyzing a software item to detect
the differences between existing and required conditions (that is
defects/errors/bugs) and to evaluate the features of the software item”.
3. Who does Testing?
It depends on the process and the associated stakeholders of the project(s).
In the IT industry, large companies have a team with responsibilities to
evaluate the developed software in the context of the given requirements.
Moreover, developers also conduct testing which is called Unit Testing. In
most cases, following professionals are involved in testing of a system within
their respective capacities:
Software Tester
Software Developer
Project Lead/Manager
End User
4. Diff between V&V
Verification Validation
Are you building it right? Are you building the right thing?
Ensure that the software system meets all
the functionality.
Ensure that functionalities meet the
intended behavior.
Verification takes place first and includes
the checking for documentation, code etc.
Validation occurs after verification and
mainly involves the checking of the overall
product.
Done by developers. Done by Testers.
Have static activities as it includes the
reviews, walkthroughs, and inspections to
verify that software is correct or not.
Have dynamic activities as it includes
executing the software against the
requirements.
It is an objective process and no subjective
decision should be needed to verify the
Software.
It is a subjective process and involves
subjective decisions on how well the
Software works.
5. QA QC TESTING
Activities which ensure the
implementation of
processes, procedures and
standards in context to
verification of developed
software and intended
requirements.
Activities which ensure the
verification of developed
software with respect to
documented (or not in some
cases) requirements.
Activities which ensure the
identification of
bugs/error/defects in the
Software.
Focuses on processes and
procedures rather then
conducting actual testing on
the system.
Focuses on actual testing by
executing Software with
intend to identify
bug/defect through
implementation of
procedures and process.
Focuses on actual testing.
Process oriented activities. Product oriented activities. Product oriented activities.
Preventive activities It is a corrective process. It is a preventive process
It is a subset of Software
Test Life Cycle (STLC)
QC can be considered as the
subset of Quality Assurance.
Testing is the subset of
Quality Control.
Diff between QA,QC & TESTING
6. Diff between Testing & Debugging
Testing: It involves the identification of bug/error/defect in the
software without correcting it. Normally professionals with a
Quality Assurance background are involved in the identification
of bugs. Testing is performed in the testing phase.
Debugging: It involves identifying, isolating and fixing the
problems/bug. Developers who code the software conduct
debugging upon encountering an error in the code. Debugging is
the part of White box or Unit Testing. Debugging can be
performed in the development phase while conducting Unit
Testing or in phases while fixing the reported bugs.
7. Testing Types
Manual Testing
This type includes the testing of the Software manually i.e. without using any
automated tool or any script. In this type the tester takes over the role of an
end user and test the Software to identify any un-expected behavior or bug.
There are different stages for manual testing like unit testing, Integration
testing, System testing and User Acceptance testing.
Testers use test plan, test cases or test scenarios to test the Software to
ensure the completeness of testing. Manual testing also includes exploratory
testing as testers explore the software to identify errors in it.
8. Testing Types
Automation Testing
Automation testing which is also known as “Test Automation”, is when the
tester writes scripts and uses another software to test the software. This
process involves automation of a manual process. Automation Testing is
used to re-run the test scenarios that were performed manually, quickly and
repeatedly.
Tools are,
Selenium (Functional, Database, Security, Performance & Web service Testing)
QTP (Functional, Database, Security, Performance & Web service Testing)
Load Runner (Stress & Load Testing)
SoapUI (JSON & XML Web Service Testing)

10. Introduction to SDLC
What is SDLC?
The software development life cycle (SDLC) is the entire
process of formal, logical steps taken to develop a
software product.
Levels of SDLC
Requirements Gathering
Systems Design
Code Generation
Testing
Maintenance/Evolution
12. Waterfall Model
Waterfall Model
The waterfall model derives its name due to the cascading effect from
one phase to the other as is illustrated in Figure. In this model each
phase well defined starting and ending point, with identifiable
deliveries to the next phase.
13. Prototyping Model
Prototyping Model
The Prototyping Model is a systems development method (SDM) in
which a prototype (an early approximation of a final system or
product) is built, tested, and then reworked as necessary until an
acceptable prototype is finally achieved from which the complete
system or product can now be developed.
14. Incremental Model
This model combines the elements of the waterfall model with the
iterative philosophy of prototyping. However, unlike prototyping the
IM focuses on the delivery of an operational product at the end of
each increment.
15. Spiral Model
The spiral model is a software development model combining
elements of both design and prototyping-in-stages, in an effort to
combine advantages of top-down and bottom-up concepts.
16. Agile Model
Agile software development is a group of software development
methods based on iterative and incremental development, where
requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-
organizing, cross-functional teams.
18. Functional Testing
This is a type of black box testing that is based on the specifications of the
software that is to be tested. The application is tested by providing input and
then the results are examined that need to conform to the functionality it was
intended for. Functional Testing of the software is conducted on a complete,
integrated system to evaluate the system's compliance with its specified
requirements. There are five steps that are involved when testing an application
for functionality.
Step I - The determination of the functionality that the intended application is
meant to perform.
Step II - The creation of test data based on the specifications of the application.
Step III - The output based on the test data and the specifications of the
application.
Step IV - The writing of Test Scenarios and the execution of test cases.
Steps V - The comparison of actual and expected results based on the executed
test cases.
19. Functional Testing Types
Unit Testing
In Unit testing user is supposed to check each and every micro function.
All field level validations are expected to test at the stage of testing.
In most of the cases Developer will do this.
Integration Testing
The primary objective of integration testing is to discover errors in the interfaces
between Modules/Sub-Systems (Host & Client Interfaces).
Minimizing the errors which include internal and external Interface errors
Types of Integration Testing
Top-Down Approach
Bottom-Up Approach
20. Functional Testing Types
System Testing
The primary objective of system testing is to discover errors when the system is
tested as a hole.
System testing is also called as End-End Testing.
User is expected to test from Login-To-Logout by covering various business
functionalities.
Acceptance Testing
The primary objective of acceptance testing is to get the acceptance from
the client.
Testing the system behavior against customer’s requirements
Customers undertake typical tasks to check their requirements
Done at the customer’s premises on the user environment
Types of Acceptance Testing:
Alpha Testing
Beta Testing
21. Non-Functional Testing Types
Performance Testing
Primary objective of the performance testing is “to demonstrate the system works
functionally as per specifications with in given response time on a production sized
database.
Types of Performance Testing:
Load Testing
Stress Testing
Load Testing
Estimating the design capacity of the system within the resources limit
Approach is Load Profile
Stress Testing
Estimating the breakdown point of the system beyond the resources limit.
Repeatedly working on the same functionality
22. Non-Functional Testing Types
Usability Testing
To test the Easiness and User-friendliness of the system.
Reliability Testing
Reliability is considered as the probability of failure-free operation for a specified
time in a specified environment for a given purpose
To find Mean Time between failure/time available under specific load pattern.
Mean time for recovery.
Regression Testing
• Objective is to check the new functionalities has incorporated correctly with out
failing the existing functionalities.
• RAD – In case of Rapid Application development Regression Test plays a vital role
as the total development happens in bits and pieces.
• Testing the code problems have been fixed correctly or not.
23. Non-Functional Testing Types
Security Testing
Testing how well the system protects against unauthorized internal or external
access.
Verify how easily a system is subject to security violations under different
conditions and environments
During Security testing, password cracking, unauthorized entry into the
software, network security are all taken into consideration.
