Types of testing

Answer Posted / mercy

Testing techniques can be broadly classified into two:
1. Structural Technique
2. Functional Technique

Both of these should be performed ideally for adequate
testing.

Structural Testing Technique: This is to uncover defects at
the coding phase. The purpose of this is to assess the
implementation by finding data that will force sufficient
coverage of the structures present in the implemented
appliccation.

Examples: Stress, Recovery, Execution, Operations,
Compliance and Security testings.

Functional Testing Technique: This is to uncover defects
that occur in implementing requirements or design
specifications. This ensures that requirements and
specifications are achieved.

Examples: Unit Test, Assembly and UAT.

Structural Testing is also called White box testing and
Functional as Black Box Testing
