What is Security testing?

It is a process used to look out whether the security features of a system are implemented as designed and also whether they are adequate for a proposed application environment. This process involves functional testing, penetration testing and verification

What is Cookie testing & Security testing???

We will first focus on what exactly cookies are and how they work. It would be easy for you to understand the test cases for testing cookies when you have clear understanding of how cookies work? How cookies stored on hard drive? And how can we edit cookie settings? Explain Cookies? Cookie is small information stored in text file on user’s hard drive by web server. This information is later used by web browser to retrieve information from that machine. Generally cookie contains personalized user data or information that is used to communicate between different web pages. Why Cookies are used? Cookies are nothing but the user’s identity and used to track where the user navigated throughout the web site pages. The communication between web browser and web server is stateless. For example if you are accessing domain http://www.example.com/1.html then web browser will simply query to example.com web server for the page 1.html. Next time if you type page as http://www.example.com/2.html the...

What is Installation testing?

Installation testing is done to verify whether the hardware and software are installed and configured properly. This will ensure that all the system components were used during the testing process. This Installation testing will look out the testing for a high volume data, error messages as well as security testing

Software Testing - Boundary-value analysis

Boundary-value analysis is a variant and refinement of equivalence partitioning, with two major differences: First, rather than selecting any element in an equivalence class as being representative, elements are selected such that each edge of the EC is the subject of a test. Boundaries are always a good place to look for defects. Second, rather than focusing exclusively on input conditions, output conditions are also explored by defining output ECs. What can be output? What are the classes of output? What should I create as an input to force a useful set of classes that represent the outputs that ought to be produced? The guidelines for boundary-value analysis are: · If an input specifies a range of valid values, write test cases for the ends of the range and invalid-input test cases for conditions just beyond the ends. Example: If the input requires a real number in the range 0.0 to 90.0 degrees, then write test cases for 0.0, 90.0, -0.001, and 90.001. · If an input specifies a numb...
