The testers should catch the bugs in software that they’re
testing. Testers should try to catch as several vital bugs as soon as possible.
Catching the crucial bug earlier on Product-Life-Cycle can save the Projects
from financial losses & mitigate the risks as compared for catching the
same at a later stage in SDLC.
Steps to hunt the
bugs:
Sometimes it’s useful
to break the rules:
The following test cases, which were predefined a tester can
miss the bugs so it makes it impossible’s to provide the product i.e. 100
percent bug free. If you-follow pre-determined test cases you risks becoming
blind to outside the bugs. A first secret is to check the functionality under the
test. It’ll be an effective channel to discover the more bugs, because
functionality is not generally covered by the test cases.
Examine the patterns:
You might have noticed that the bugs can be often met in the
groups, one can call them-gregarious. The testing a new but the similar
functionality you should turn to the previous testing ideas or decisions. It is
also a better advice to note the test ideas that’ve already helped you in the bugs
fixing.
Bring the bug to its
knees:
Don’t be in a hurry for log the bug you’ve found in your
bug-report. It can be just the start. Bug indicates software loose the link. Feeding
the huge number of insane-inputs, firing up the data of inputs, reducing the system
resources you can soon the witness presence of another earlier bug.
Listen for the
footsteps of approaching the bug:
This enables to hear the several background-sounds. It helps
in couple of fronts. In such path you’ll be able to hear the warning messages,
error-boxes and etc. which can’t appear at your screen for few reasons but be
witnesses of the bug’s presence.
Two heads’re better
than one:
By a tester is required to be full of ideas’, nevertheless
there can be the cases when a tester has no one for un-cover bugs. It’s time for
ask your colleagues to help. Testing-together at same time and it helps
generate the new testing ideas. The other plus of the pair testing is that you
work more intently having a feeling of being watched. But the collaboration
which lasts to a long time can lead for tunnel vision.
