Software systems are playing important role in society and becoming more challenging to build. New methods, techniques and tools are available to support development and maintenance. Because software has such an important role in our lives both economically and socially. So there is a pressure for software professionals to focus on quality issues. Software testing is used to ensure the quality of the product. Even though, the Test Life Cycle consists of several steps, test case design plays a vital role. There are two types of testing namely manual testing and automated testing. The process of testing with the help of human is known as manual testing. The process of testing software by another testing tool is known as automated testing. There are lot of automated tools are available to test the software.
