Answer Posted / amandeep singh

HI All,

Database testing is required in the following cases:
-> Whenever we need a migration of Database from one
DataBase to another Database ex. From MYSQL to SQL Server
5, in that case we need to check that All the Tables are
migrated, Data should be properly migrated, No loss of
data, The Data type used in the Previous DB should be same
in the new DB, Mantissa for the Floating point no should be
same and etc.....

-> In case of Commit and RollBack we need to check the data
in the DB

-> ex... In wikipedia all user have option to edit the
information.. suppose two user click on the same EDIT
button one after another and write their views and
submit... then the information of only the first user
should be stored... for this we need to check at the back
end..

-> there might be the case where whole application is not
developed or the application is still under developement
phase and we dont have any front end to check the Output in
that case we need to check at the back end...

-> and many more scenarios are possible..
