4 principles of software testing

Software  testing is the procedure of assessment a product thing to recognize difference between given input and expected output. Likewise to feature of a product item. Testing evaluates the quality of the product. Software testing is a procedure that should be done during the development process. Now the software testing job opportunities are increasing. many principles are using  for software testing. They are
  • Testing shows the presence of bugs
  • Exhaustive testing is impossible
  • Early testing
  • Defect clustering

1.Testing shows the presence of bugs
Testing an application can just reveal that one or more defects exists in the application, be that as it may, testing alone can't demonstrate that the application is error free. Therefore, it is essential to configuration test cases which find as many defects as possible.

2.Exhaustive testing is impossible
Unless the application under test (AUT) has an exceptionally basic logical structure and limited input, it isn't conceivable to test every possible combination of information and scenarios. Consequently, risk and needs are utilized to focus on the most important aspects to test.

 3.Early testing
The sooner we begin the testing exercises the better we can use the accessible time. When the initial products, such the requirement or design documents are accessible, we can begin testing. It is regular for the testing phase to get squeezed toward the finish of the advancement life cycle, i.e. when development has completed, so by beginning testing early, we can get ready testing for each level of the development lifecycle.


4.Defect clustering
During  testing, it can be observed that the vast majority of the detailed defects are related with small number of modules within a system. i.e. small number of modules contain the majority of the defects in the system. This is the application of the Pareto Principle to software testing: roughly 80% of the issues are found in 20% of the modules.
