The process of identifying and fixing errors, bugs, and defects in software code or hardware systems.
A point in the code where program execution can be paused for debugging purposes.
A report that shows the sequence of function calls leading up to a specific point in the code, used to identify the cause of an error or exception.
The practice of recording events, actions, and messages in a software application for debugging and troubleshooting purposes.
A type of testing where individual components or units of a software application are tested to ensure they function correctly.
A type of testing where multiple components or units of a software application are combined and tested as a group to ensure they work together correctly.
A type of testing where the entire software application is tested to ensure it meets the specified requirements and functions as expected.
A type of testing where previously tested functionality is retested to ensure that changes or fixes have not introduced new bugs or issues.
A type of testing where the performance and responsiveness of a software application under various conditions and workloads are evaluated.
A type of testing where the security vulnerabilities and weaknesses of a software application are identified and addressed.
A set of conditions or variables under which a tester will determine whether a software application is working correctly or not.
A document that outlines the objectives, scope, approach, and schedule of testing activities for a software application.
A collection of test cases that are grouped together for execution and reporting purposes.
A software development approach where tests are written before the code is implemented, driving the design and development process.
A development practice where code changes are frequently integrated into a shared repository, allowing early detection of integration issues.
A measure of the proportion of code that is executed during testing, used to assess the effectiveness of test cases.
A technique where small changes, or mutations, are made to the code to evaluate the quality of the test suite by checking if the tests can detect the changes.
A type of testing where the code is analyzed without executing it, typically using automated tools to identify potential issues and improve code quality.
A type of testing where the code is executed to observe its behavior and verify that it meets the specified requirements.
A testing technique where the internal structure and implementation details of the software application are not known to the tester.
A testing technique where the internal structure and implementation details of the software application are known to the tester.
A testing technique where the tester has partial knowledge of the internal structure and implementation details of the software application.
A testing technique where test cases are designed based on the boundaries or limits of input values to ensure that the software handles them correctly.
A testing technique where test cases are designed based on dividing the input domain into equivalent classes to reduce the number of test cases while still achieving good coverage.
A testing technique where test cases are designed to cover all possible combinations of input values, reducing the number of test cases required.
A type of testing where the software application is subjected to extreme workloads or conditions to evaluate its stability and performance under pressure.
A type of testing where the software application is subjected to normal or expected workloads to evaluate its performance and response times.
A type of testing where the software application is evaluated for its ease of use, intuitiveness, and user-friendliness.
A type of testing where the software application is evaluated for its accessibility to users with disabilities, ensuring compliance with accessibility standards.
A type of testing where the software application is evaluated for its compatibility with different operating systems, browsers, devices, or databases.
A type of testing where the software application is tested by a select group of users before its official release, providing feedback and identifying issues.
A type of testing where the software application is tested by a larger group of external users before its official release, gathering feedback and identifying issues.
A type of testing where the software application is tested to determine whether it meets the specified requirements and is ready for deployment.
A type of testing where a subset of test cases is executed to quickly determine whether the software application is stable enough for further testing.
The use of software tools and scripts to automate the execution of test cases, reducing manual effort and increasing efficiency.
A setup or configuration that mimics the production environment, allowing testing to be performed in a controlled and representative environment.
The input values, files, or databases used during testing to ensure that the software application behaves correctly under different scenarios.
A document that provides an overview of the testing activities, including test results, issues encountered, and recommendations for further improvement.
An issue or flaw in the software application that deviates from its expected behavior or functionality.
The process of recording, managing, and resolving issues or defects identified during testing or development.
A systematic examination of the code by peers or experts to identify issues, improve code quality, and ensure adherence to coding standards.
The process of analyzing the code without executing it, typically using automated tools to identify potential issues and improve code quality.
A practice where testing activities are integrated into the software development process, allowing for early and frequent testing of code changes.
A software development approach where tests are written before the code is implemented, driving the design and development process.
A software development approach where tests are written in a natural language format to describe the expected behavior of the software.
The process of creating simulated objects or components to replace real dependencies during testing, allowing for isolated and controlled testing.
A development practice where code changes are frequently integrated into a shared repository, allowing for early detection of integration issues.
A software development practice where code changes are automatically built, tested, and deployed to production environments.
A software development practice where code changes are automatically built, tested, and deployed to production environments without manual intervention.
