Difference between Manual and Automation?

MANUAL TESTING:
Manual testing is time consuming, not robust, uses human resources, harder to repeat a test and costly.

AUTOMATED TESTING:
Automated testing is faster, robust, easily repeatable, Reusable and cost efficient. Therefore, Company should use automated testing for save their time, money and human resources.

What is automation?

Automation is a process that executes manual test cases into automation script and Execute that same Functionality without user interact.

Example: Lets say we have test case for login to an application. For perform this test manually we need open browser, we need to navigate to the application URL, then insert valid credentials to the WEBEDIT and finally we need to click on login button.

Instead of doing manually we can easily automate this test case and run it for multiple number of users without any human interact.

What is Business Requirements Document (BRD)?

BRD is written by the Business Analysts. It details the business solution for a project including the documentation of customer needs and expectations.

The most common objectives of the BRD are:

==> To gain agreement with stakeholders 

==> To provide a foundation to communicate to a technology service provider what the solution                 needs to do to satisfy the customer's and business’ needs 

==> To provide input into the next phase for this project

==> To describe what not how the customer/business needs will be met by the solution

What is a test cases and what is the purpose of a test cases?

Test Case:

A test case is a document that describes step by step process how to test the application.

Test case includes:

Test case ID, Step Name, Step Description, Test Data, Expected Output, Actual Output, Pass/Fail and comments.

The purposes of the test case are:
Ø To achieve the 100% RM coverage

Ø Reduce the defect in the application

Ø Verifying standards guideline

Ø Validating users need

ITCloud Demo :-

We are excited to let you know that our orientation will be held on May 16, 2015 at 8:00 PM (EST). 
Shortly we are going to provide DEMO joining URL to all attendees.

Also training session going to be start from May 19, 2015. Our regular online session will begin 8:00PM – 10:00PM (EST). 

As you already know, this session will take place on every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Before the session begins, our admin will send you meeting links through email. If you have any concern, please feel free to call our admin at 954-861-9365.

What is a test scenario?

A test scenario is a functionality of the application that can be tested. Test scenario also called Test condition or Test possibility.

Example: scenario for the user login functionality:

Scenario for positive testing:

i) Enter valid user ID & password in the login window then click login. User able to login.

Scenario for negative testing:

i) Leave blank user ID & Password field, click login – Error message displays.

ii) Enter invalid user ID & wrong password, click login – Error message displays.

iii) Enter valid user ID & wrong password, click login, - Error message displays.

iv) Enter invalid ID & right password, click login - Error message displays.

What are the common solutions in software development process?

The common solutions in software development process are:

Ø  Solid requirement

Ø  Sufficient tools

Ø  Good communication

What are the common problems in software development process?

There are some problem in software development process, most of them are:

What is your day to day activity as a tester?

Well, it is actually depends on what kind of methodology you are using. And what kind of environment you are working?

Generally day to day activities are:

1)      Check the email and replay back if needed

2)      Check calendar for make sure any meeting scheduled or not

3)      Join the Daily Stand-Up Meeting. Where we basically ask 3 question each other:

Ø  What you have done so far?

Ø  What you want to do today?

Ø  Any blockers?

4)      Preparing test scenarios, writing the test cases, prepare test data and executing the test cases.

5)      If I found any bug then log to my lead.

What Is the Uses Of SQL?

• SQL can create new tables in a database
• SQL can insert records in a database
• SQL can update records in a database
• SQL can delete records from a database
• SQL can create stored procedures in a database
• SQL can retrieve data from a database
• SQL can create views in a database
• SQL can set permissions on tables, procedures, and views

What is SQL and why tester need SQL?

What is SQL and why tester need SQL?

SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is an ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standard computer language for accessing and manipulating database systems. SQL statements are used to retrieve and update data in a database. SQL works with database programs like MS Access, DB2, Informix, MS SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase, etc.

Why tester need SQL:

Yes, a tester needs to know SQL. When we do the back-end testing, we need to write SQL queries to retrieve the data from the database and compare this data to the one with reports or output.

Another scenario is, if something goes wrong in the application, for example, if there is an error, then we might have to write SQL queries to retrieve the data from the database and check what went wrong. Let’s say, we need to check in the Error Log table what went wrong. To check this, we query to the database, go to Error Log table and find out that happened. In the Error Log table, there are many records, so which one is your error then? To find out which one is yours, we need to write SQL queries. Example, you logged in to the application with User ID=devin99 and password=sn992jj. Now, to retrieve your record, you can write a query something like this: select * from Error_Log where userID=devin99; this query will retrieve your record only so that you can see what happened.
