The Theory of Software Testing

Adtha Lawanna

Open publisher page 16 citations

Abstract

Software testing is the process of testing bugs in lines of code of a program that can be performed by manual or automation testing. The theory of software testing involves problem definitions of testing such as test team, failure after testing, manual testing, uncertainty principle, participation, and incorrect test case selection. This article shows the details of a critical part of software testing, which is how to test the performance of new software and the entire system. The outcome of this article is the whole picture of three phases for software testing as follows: preliminary testing, testing and user acceptance testing.
