Test execution is the way toward executing the code and looking at the normal and real outcomes. Following components should be considered for a test execution process −
- In light of a hazard, select a subset of test suite to be executed for this cycle.
- Dole out the experiments in each test suite to analyzers for execution.
- Execute tests, report bugs, and catch test status persistently.
- Resolve blocking issues as they emerge.
- Report status, modify assignments, and reevaluate plans and needs day by day.
- Report test cycle discoveries and status.
The accompanying focuses should be considered for Test Execution.
- Right now, QA group performs genuine approval of AUT dependent on arranged experiments and contrasts the stepwise outcome and the normal outcome.
- The section criteria of this stage is consummation of the Test Plan and the Test Cases Development stage, the test information ought to likewise be prepared.
- The approval of Test Environment arrangement is constantly prescribed through smoke testing before formally entering the test execution.
- The leave criteria requires the effective approval of all Test Cases; Defects ought to be shut or conceded; experiment execution and deformity outline report ought to be prepared.
Activities for Test Execution
The goal of this stage is continuous approval of AUT before proceeding onward to creation/discharge. To close down from this stage, the QA group performs various kinds of testing to guarantee the nature of item. Alongside this deformity announcing and retesting is additionally pivotal movement right now. Following are the significant exercises of this stage −
System Integration Testing
The genuine approval of item/AUT begins here. Framework Integration Testing (SIT) is a discovery testing procedure that assesses the framework's consistence against indicated prerequisites/experiments arranged.
Framework Integration Testing is generally performed on subset of framework. The SIT can be performed with least use of testing apparatuses, confirmed for the associations traded and the conduct of every datum field inside individual layer is likewise examined. After the mix, there are three primary conditions of information stream −
- Information state inside the joining layer
- Information state inside the database layer
- Information state inside the Application layer
Note − In SIT testing, the QA group attempts to discover whatever number imperfections as could be expected under the circumstances to guarantee the quality. The primary target here is discovering bugs however many as could reasonably be expected.
DefectReporting
A product bug emerges when the normal outcome doesn't coordinate with the real outcome. It tends to be a mistake, imperfection, disappointment, or deficiency in a PC program. Most bugs emerge from mix-ups and mistakes made by designers or modelers.
While performing SIT testing, the QA group finds these kinds of deformities and these should be accounted for to the concerned colleagues. The individuals make further move and fix the deformities. Another bit of leeway of revealing is it facilitates the following of the status of imperfections. There are numerous mainstream instruments like ALM, QC, JIRA, Version One, Bugzilla that help deformity revealing and following.
Imperfection Reporting is a procedure of discovering deserts in the application under test or item by testing or recording criticism from clients and making new forms of the item that fix the deformities dependent on the customer's input.
Imperfection following is likewise a significant procedure in programming designing as intricate and business basic frameworks have many deformities. One of the most testing factors is overseeing, assessing and organizing these deformities. The quantity of deformities gets duplicated over some undefined time frame and to adequately oversee them, imperfection following framework is utilized to make the activity simpler.
Defect Mapping
When deformity is accounted for and logged, it ought to be mapped with the concerned fizzled/blocked experiments and relating necessities in Requirement Traceability Matrix. This mapping is finished by the Defect Reporter. It assists with making an appropriate deformity report and break down the naughtiness in item. When the experiments and necessities are mapped with the imperfection, partners can examine and take a choice on whether to fix/concede the deformity dependent on need and seriousness.
Re-testing
Re-testing is executing a formerly bombed test against AUT to check whether the issue is settled. After a deformity has been fixed, re-testing is performed to check the situation under the equivalent natural conditions.
During re-testing, analyzers search for granular subtleties at the changed region of usefulness, though relapse testing covers all the fundamental capacities to guarantee that no functionalities are broken because of this change.
Regression Testing
When all deformities are in shut, conceded or dismissed status and none of the experiments are in progress/fizzled/no run status, it tends to be said that framework incorporation testing is totally founded on experiments and necessity. In any case, one round of speedy testing is required to guarantee that none of the usefulness is broken because of code changes/deformity fixes.
Relapse testing is a discovery testing procedure that comprises of re-executing those tests that have had an effect because of code changes. These tests ought to be executed as regularly as conceivable all through the product advancement life cycle.
Types of Regression Tests
- Last Regression Tests − A "last relapse testing" is performed to approve the construct that has not experienced a change for a while. This fabricate is conveyed or sent to clients.
- Relapse Tests − A typical relapse testing is performed to check if the construct has NOT broken some other pieces of the application by the ongoing code changes for deformity fixing or for improvement.
