Testing

5. Testing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Software development is a complex and sizable team activity simulating several human capabilities. The importance of testing is therefore self- evident. As every single software development aims at different functional walks of life, the need for testing is further stressed.

There are various type of testing such as unit testing, integration testing, system tests, user acceptance tests and many more.

Such test and review are done by different people(analysts, designers, programmers, specialist testers and users, too) at various phase of the SDLC (like design, programming, implementation), using a variety of techniques (like black-box, white-box, etc.) and by deploying a range of procedures/ methods and automated tools.
