Now we move on to system testing, which evaluates the entire software system as a whole, focusing on its behavior and functionality from end to end.
System testing verifies that the integrated components and subsystems of the software work together seamlessly and meet the specified functional requirements. It validates that the system performs its intended tasks, handles data correctly, and provides the expected outputs. System testing is essential for identifying problems that may arise due to component interactions or data dependencies throughout the system.
This type of system testing is the most comprehensive, as it basically verifies the entire sequence of actions within a software application, from the initial user input to the final output. It involves testing the application’s functionality across multiple systems, servers, and interfaces, ensuring the smooth integration of all components.
Sanity testing is a software testing technique typically performed after receiving a software build that contains minor code or feature changes. Its purpose is to verify that recent updates to the code base have resolved previous problems. Basically, it checks whether each update makes sense from a practical point of view.
This form of software testing evaluates the functionality of the essential or core features of a software application, verifies their expected behavior, and determines the stability of the application for subsequent testing phases. Performing this type of testing helps to avoid spending time and resources on an unstable or broken state, ensuring a more efficient use of resources.
This approach does not require knowledge of an application’s internal functions or processes. Testers execute pre-defined test cases to identify functionality issues rather than internal implementation issues. The focus is purely on inputs and outputs.
This rather funnily named software testing technique aims to interrupt application processes in order to uncover potential errors or bugs. Also known as ad hoc testing or gorilla testing, this approach is done at random and is typically an unplanned activity that does not use software documentation or test design methodologies to construct test cases.
