Is Validation Test & Negative Tests have same meaning???Are both same???..

Answer / murali

Validation Test does not mean a negative test. When we are
testing any application... for example on click on
button "Submit" a pop up should be displayed. We will check
if the pop up is displayed or not.
Validation testing can be both positive testing as well as
negative testing.

Answer / shuba

Validation test means testing the data on the front end and
as well as on the back end to see both are matching.
Negative testing is testing the application with various
negative scenarios E.g. username field should accept only
lower case and minimum 8 characters, testing with negative
input like with upper case and with 6 charachters.

Is Validation Test & Negative Tests have same meaning???Are both same???..

Answer / siri

they r not same, but validation includes positive testing
and also negative testing. for example: there is a username
field in the form which only accepts min. 8 characters and
only the combination of alphabets and numeric values;
in this case
the positive testing or scenario is ;
enter 8 characters with the combination of letters and
numbers(abcdef01;123456ab;)
enter 9 characters with the combination of letters and
numbers. (abcdefgh1 or 12345678a)
in this positive scenario, it should accept the input data.

the negative testing or scenario is;
enter 7 characters with the combination of letters and
numbers(abcdef0; 123456a;)
enter 8 characters with no combination of letters and
numbers(abcdefgh;12345678;)
enter 8 characters with the combination of letters,numbers
and special characters(abcde_12; 1234:abc)
in this negative scenario, it should reject or show an alert
message saying invaid input data.
