Answer / shivani behere
In testing ,tester first approaches the valid conditions
and all valid inputs. But when after the Valid Approach he
turns through on Invalid Approach,like if there is a site
tester test that where this site fails ,all the steps taken
by him to make that site fail is called the Negative
Testing.

Hi,
Nagative Testing:
Take an example suppose ur in ur Login screen u
have username and Pwd text fields are availabel .The
requirement says that suppose if u enter any invalid value
in user name field , the system should display an error
message as "Enter value is invalid".
we are inputing the negative values and we are checking
that the error is getting displayed or not...
let me know if it is wrong..

Negative testing is nothing but the testing with invalid data.
when we do adhoc testing at that time it is more useful.
In adhoc testing user dont know what is valid or
invalid.During such adhoc testing system should not
crash.For this purpose negative testing is done.
clear me if i m wrong.

Answer / shakun garg
One of the main testing principle:
"Destructive approach for constructive testing"
Some time tester should think like a hacker to identify loopholes in application.
To fulfill this tester should follow negative testing to justify system behavior of system in negative conditions.
