1. What is load testing?

Load testing is to test that if the application works fine with the loads that result from large number of simultaneous users, transactions and to determine weather it can handle peak usage periods.



2. What is Performance testing?

Timing for both read and update transactions should be gathered to determine whether system functions are being performed in an acceptable timeframe. This should be done standalone and then in a multi user environment to… Continue

Build Verification Testing or Smoke Testing is a set of tests that run on new build to verify that whether the build is testable or not. It is done prior to its release to test team for further testing. This testing is done for Build Validation and Build Acceptance.



The test cases of Build Verification Testing can include core functionality test cases that ensure software / application is stable and can be tested thoroughly. Some key points for this kind of Software Testing… Continue

Test Cases are the implementation of a test case design which will help the software tester to detect defects in the application or the system being tested. This should be the primary goal of any test case or set of test cases. When I write a test case, I think of both types of test cases, positive test cases and negative test cases. Positive test cases are those which execute the happy path in the application and make sure that the happy path is working fine. Negative test cases as the name… Continue

Sharing some of the useful tips on QTP I used while working and found from sqaforums.I urge the readers to share their experiences/tips they have used while working on QTP. You can use the comments section to do the same.

This is more to do with MS excel then QTP!! but useful to know because at times it becomes frustrating to the novices.

Just append ' to the number

Ex: if you wish to enter 1234567 in datatable then write… Continue

The following schematic outlines the key phases in methodology, spanning the entire software development life cycle. With the cost of defect fixing rising as a product evolves, our life cycle spanning test services enable you to catch errors earlier in the cycle, saving on both time and cost. We bring to the table, the following benefits



* The no compromise attitude to QA

* Vendor neutral, un-based opinion

* Taking ownership to the code quality. No more "my gut feel says,… Continue
