    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)
