Study Notes
Test Types
Unit Testing
- Testing individual units of code (functions, methods, classes) in isolation
- Focuses on ensuring each unit functions correctly
- Typically performed by developers during the development process
- Benefits:
- Fast and inexpensive
- Helps catch bugs early
- Improves code quality
- Tools:
- JUnit (Java)
- PyUnit (Python)
- NUnit (.NET)
Integration Testing
- Testing how multiple units of code work together
- Focuses on ensuring interactions between units are correct
- Typically performed after unit testing
- Benefits:
- Ensures correct data flow between units
- Helps catch integration bugs
- Improves overall system reliability
- Tools:
- Selenium (Web)
- Apache JMeter (Performance)
Acceptance Testing
- Testing the entire system to ensure it meets requirements
- Focuses on ensuring the system meets user expectations
- Typically performed by testers or QA teams
- Benefits:
- Ensures system meets business requirements
- Helps catch defects that affect user experience
- Improves overall system quality
- Tools:
- Cucumber (BDD)
- TestComplete (Functional)
