  • Random Testing in Software Testing

    Random Testing  is a black box testing technique where all of the test inputs are generated randomly (often using a tool) and used for testing.

    Random Testing in software Testing
    • It is a type of functional testing and it is beneficial when the time needed to write & run directed tests is too long.
    • It is also known as Monkey Testing.
    • There is no specific approach to perform the Monkey Testing because it is an ad-hoc way of software testing
    • In Random Testing a tester or a developer can test the system to confirm whether it performs the desired set of actions.

    Reason to use Random Testing:

      • Easily estimating software reliability from test outcomes.
      • Test inputs are randomly generated according to an operational profile, and failure times can be recorded
      • Use of random test inputs may save some of the time and effort.

    Characteristics of random testing:

      • It is performed where bugs in a software
      • Application is not identified by the regular intervals.
      • Random input is used to test the system performance and its reliability.
      • Saves time and effort than actual tests.

    Benefits/Advantages :

      • Automatic generation of random input data can be used, allowing many more test cases to be executed
      • Can generate good results by using the correct algorithm.

    Some drawbacks of Monkey Testing:

      • They are not realistic
      • Many of the tests are redundant 
      • You will spend more time analysing results
      • There is no measure of risk
