    System testing

    This article will present you with a complete idea about Integration Testing ,Unit Testing and System testing.

    We will learn below topics in this article

    Integration Testing

        • Testing the interfaces between components
        • Tests communication between 2 components, not individual component functionality
        • Integration Testing can be performed after unit testing and before system testing
        • To validate to if different pieces of the modules work together as a whole.
        • Scope is broad and puts the whole application under test
        • Integration Testing is carried out by testers

    Approaches to integration testing:

        • Big Bang Approach
        • Incremental Approach
        • Sandwich Approach

    Some features of integration testing

          • Testing done to verify communication of data and actions across different systems, hardware, software or environmental components.
          • It also tests nonfunctional aspects.
          • Performed after integration of modules, software and external components.
          • Integration techniques are used.Preferably this should be in incremental mode rather than a BIG BANG approach as it’s harder to isolate failures
          • Aims to remove defects and performance issues due to integration of various systems.
    Test levels in Software Testing Integration testing

    Unit Testing

        • It is a level of the software testing process where individual components of a system are tested.
        • Objective is to validate that each unit of the software performs as designed.
        • Concerned with functional correctness and completeness of individual program units

    Objective

    Isolate each part of the program and show that the individual parts are correct.

    Why Unit Test?

        • Faster Debugging
        • Faster Development
        • Better Design
        • Reduce Future Cost

    Who performs it?

        • Performed by software developers
        • May also independent software testers (Understanding of code, architecture and design is required)
    Some important points of Unit testing:
          • Used to check or defects and functioning of an individual piece of code like object or class.
          • Done at  the time of code development. Defects are usually fixed straight away.
          • Run or check of code using stubs, drivers and Simulators, Test Driven Development (Test First approach), unit test framework, debugging tool
          • Unit testing mainly targets on checking functional and non functional aspects like unit code, performance, robustness, memory leakage etc.
          • Performed by Developers.

    System Testing

        • Testing complete, integrated system to evaluate the system’s compliance with its specified requirements.
        • Carried out by specialists testers or independent testers.
        • Covers both functional and non-functional requirements of the testing.
        • Objective is verify and validate both the business requirements as well as the applications architecture
        • Testing application thoroughly to verify that it meets the technical and functional specifications

    Types of system testing

    The mainly using types are

        • Usability testing
        • Stress testing
        • Regression testing
        • Functional testing
        • Load testing
        • Sanity testing
        • Security testing

    Entry criteria for system testing

        • Complete software system should be developed
        • Unit testing and Integration testing must be completed Specifications for the product have been completed
        • Test scripts are ready

    Exit criteria for system testing

        • All the test cases for the system should be executed
        • No critical defects should be opened

    Application meets all the document requirements and functionalities
