What is Software Testing?

Software testing is the process of evaluating a software system to validate that it is working as per requirements and to find and prevent defects.

It involves various activities such as:

• Planning and control

• Choosing test conditions

• Designing and executing test cases

• Checking results

• Evaluating exit criteria

• Reporting on the test process and system under test

• Finalizing activities after testing, including reviewing documents and conducting static analysis

The goal of software testing is to gain confidence about the level of quality of the software system. By thoroughly testing the system, we can ensure that it meets the requirements and specifications, and functions as expected.

This helps to detect and prevent defects early in the development process, reducing the overall cost of development and improving the quality of the final product.
