Boundary Value Analysis Benefits

Boundary Value Analysis is a software testing technique which is used to create the test cases for required input field or we can say that BVA used for test cases design(between the valid boundary partition and invalid partition). BVA is also a part of stress and negative testing. Boundary value include the border value means minimum and maximum value for example an address text box which takes 500 character but if create the test cases for each character then it’s very difficult to design so here we will use the BVA technique means take the boundary values. Another example for this technique at office a very important tool which is used for take valid user name and password field in which minimum 8 characters and maximum 12 characters so here we can partition  valid range will be 8-12 and invalid range 7-13.Most important thing it is used for Black box testing. Many application errors create at the boundaries.  ‘Boundary value analysis’ testing technique is used to found errors at boundaries rather than finding those occur in middle of input given. Where a boundary value has taken the invalid partition the test case is designed to assure the software component hold the value in a managed manner. Boundary value analysis is also used for the testing cycle and is also similarly applicable for all testing phases. We cannot test all the possible input domain values, because if we try to complete all, then number of test cases becomes large. In this method, input data is partition into different part; each part gives the input range from the equivalence. Then select one input from each partition. So this technique is used to reduce large number of test cases to a minimum number, while assuring that the selected test cases are effective test cases which would be the whole scenarios.
Benefits of Boundary Value:
1.    It reduces the number of test cases for a tester.
2.    It is used for black box testing.
3.    It is use for find the bugs occur at boundaries rather than exist in the center.
4.    It is give the technique in which input domain divided into different class and select each class for testing so we can say that we can easily find the bugs.

Mobile Application Testing: Strategy for Development

There are a huge number of demands and lots of competitions in the mobile application industries. In that demands and competitions, the mobile application testing has become more important. The testing phase of the mobile application testing looks like evil between the creative process and excitement of new products in the market. According to the survey, “In US, on an average 2-3 hours per day people spends their time on smartphones and tablets. On that time, they spent 80% on mobile application and remaining 20% on web applications.” Few list of key factors for successful mobile application testing strategies are: Selection of Device for Testing : Before introducing the mobile application test activities, first select the devices for testing the application. Selection decision is very important because only devices can help to targets maximum numbers of the customers for accessing the application. There are two parts for device selection: §   Device Model ...

Cross browser testing Tools

Cross Browser testing It is a process to test the web apps across multiple browsers. It involves the checking compatibility of the app across multiple web browsers & ensures that your web app’s works correctly across different web browsers. Tools for Cross Browser Testing Browser shots: The browser shots might be most exhaustive cross browser-testing tool that exists. Browser Shots includes all of most popular-browsers, like Firefox, Chrome, & Safari, along with the tons of another browser’s that might sound unfamiliar, like Sea Monkey, Flock, & Iceape. You can adjust the resolution, color-settings, & even Flash and JavaScript settings. Cross Browser Testing: It allows users to test their websites with over the hundred resolution or browser and Operating System combinations. This also has support to mobile web-browsers, which is crucial because the web traffic is making shift from the primarily desktop computer users to primarily mobile ...

Want to know about Mobile Application Testing? Came to right place

What is Mobile Application Testing ? Mobile Application Testing is a phenomenon of testing functionality, usability and consistency of application software designed for mobiles. It is done in two ways: Automated and Manually. When you buy a new mobile, various applications came pre-installed and some you install as per your need from mobile software distribution platforms such as Google Play, Nokia Store etc. In the recent years, mobile devices had shown a rapid growth rate .  Factors that give an open challenge to Mobile application Testing : 1. Mobile devices models : Different models have different hardware configurations, input methods (some are QWERTY, some are touch while others are normal). 2. Several different operating systems (OS) : Market  is full of availability of different operating  systems  (   Android , IOS, BREW, BREWMP, Symbian,   Windows Phone , and   BlackBerry   (RIM)).Each operating system is unique in ...
