Manual Testing vs Automated Testing

  • Manual Testing is a process carried by testing team to find the defects  and to confirm that application works as per the requirements.

  • Testers manually execute test cases without using any automation tools.

  • Tester plays an important role as end user and verify all features of the application work as per requirements.

  • Identify any unexpected behavior or bug

  • Manual testing is necessary find feasibility of automation. 100% automation is difficult task for any software.

  • In Manual testing the designed test cases or test scenarios will be executed and any differences between actual and expected results are reported as defects. Once the reported defects are fixed, the testers will retest the defect to make sure that the defects are fixed It is preferable to execute User Interface test cases using manual testing.

  • Manual testing is slower than automation. Running tests manually can be very time consuming.


What is Automated Testing

  • Automated testing is performed by using tools which are capable of executing tests, reporting outcomes and comparing results with earlier test runs. Tests carried out with automation tools can be run repeatedly, at any time of day without need of human being to be present.

  • Automation is expensive initially but eventually cost effective.

What is unit testing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9RvPN3kiHk&feature=youtu.be   Testing of individual software components or units or modules. Typically unit testing is done by the programmer and not by testers. Unit is smallest and complete set of code which accepts input, processes and gives output The primary goal of unit testing is to take the smallest piece of testable software in the application, isolate it from the remainder of the code, and determine whether it behaves exactly as you expect.

Regression Testing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaANTCZt20g What is Regression testing? It is a type of software testing that verifies that software performs correctly after the change or defect fix. Changes may include software enhancements, patches, hardware, networking, data structure, configuration changes, etc. In other words purpose of regression testing is to identify that  new defects are not introduced in the system after the change. 2) At what levels regression testing should be done? At all levels mainly Unit Testing, Integration testing and System Testing: Focus on testing is different at different levels. 3) What are the types of Regression testing techniques? Corrective Regression Testing: Progressive Regression Testing: Retest-All Strategy:. Selective Strategy: (dependencies between a test case and the program entities it covers) 4) What should be the frequency of regression testing? Ideally Regression testing should be done after bug fix and after any change to the syste
