Question { 3530 }

Is there any testing named as Comprehensive testing

Answer

testing happens in various levels..
like
level 0 : sanity testing/Build verification testing/Tester
Acceptance Testing
level 1 : is comprehensive testing
level 2 : is regression testing
level 3 : is Acceptance testing.

in level 0 : all p0 testcases are executed
level 1 : All p0, p1 and p2 testcases as batches
level 2 : selected p0, p1 and p2 testcases w.r.to
modification
level 3 : selected 0, p1, and p2 testcases w.r.to bug
densitry

comprehensive testing...after level 0 testing and selection
of possible testcases for automation, test engineers
concetrate on test suite and test set. every test batch
consists of a set of dependent testcases.during these test
batch execution test engineers create test log document
with these types of entries like no. of pass, failed and
blocked.
{during comprehensive test execution, test engineers are
reporting mismatches to developers as defects. After
resolution of the bug, developers release modified build to
testers. testers reexecute their test to ensure bug fix
work and occurences of side effects }...is is according to
mindq material i had gone thru...if wrong plz do
comment

Question { 6293 }

Hi.. I am working as a tester in a small company. I have 2+

Question { CTS, 7465 }

What are the Testing types can Follow for Web application
Project ?Please Help me .....Urgent ....

Answer

Web Application test includes following tests
1) functionality - sanity, smoke, functionality
2) UI based testing - GUI testing
3)Performace - Load, Stress, Volume
4) Security - Penetration & security ( acess,
authorisation & encryption/decryption)

Question { Sonata, 6101 }

Diff between stress and load testing with example?

Answer

Load testing we check for scalibility & performance of the
application in customer expected Environment and
configuration.

Stress we try to check the performance of the application
under unintended loads / peaks hours to see at which point
the application fails to support customer expected
performance

Question { Sonata, 12117 }

Clear definition of boundary value analysis

Answer

Boundary Value Analysis is a category under input domain
testing which is a kind of functional testing.
Using BVA we can test hw the AUT behaves at their
boundaries.That is u test the functionality by giving
inputs at their boundaries : Eg : if test box can accept a
character string of length 2-8 then your BVA would be,
i. i/p :2= pass
ii. i/p : 2-1 = Fail
iii. i/p : value btn 3-7 , any one value - Pass
iv. i/p : 8 = pass
v. i/p 8+1 = Fail

if X is the limit you will check values at X-1, X and X+1

Question { CTS, 25662 }

What is the Difference between Client Server and a web
Application?

Answer

few more points on client server application and web
application.

Client- server applications: Application is loaded at the
server. In every client machine, an exe is loaded to call
this application.

Web Based application : Application is loaded at the
server.but,No exe is installed at the client machine. We
have to call the application through browser. usually we
use http protocols to communicate.

Question { CTS, 25662 }

What is the Difference between Client Server and a web
Application?

Answer

In web Application,we will use any one of the webse5r and
we will deploy all the web components into that server.
Even client components also will be in server only. Once
the user send the request through browser then only the
appropriate component will download to user machine and it
will execute in browser. eg : yahoo mail

but in clientserver application, the client application
will be in client machine and one machine in remote place
acts as a server. in that server pc one server application
will run, whenever client requests then it will receive
that and send the response to client. eg : yahoo messenger.

Question { CTS, 25662 }

What is the Difference between Client Server and a web
Application?

Answer

Hi Friends,

I am also hunting for job like you guys. Thanks for the
requests for clarification of web application as 2-tier.

for eg : lets us take an example of user logging into
portal.

the webpage(where you are providing username and password)
is a front end page and its clear we treat it as one tier.
Once you enter username and password, these must be
validated. There are two options, you can validate in the
same jsp page or you can use another servlet to validate
these user credentials and delegate the request to
appropriate page on success.

Here the point is if you are validating the username and
password in the same jsp which means the frontend page(lets
think as a jsp) is directly interacting with
database...then we can treat it as a two tier. Incase if
this jsp is again talking to other servlet saying..."hey
servlet...please validate this user id and password and
decide yourselves what ever you want to do if success or
failuer? " then simply this servlet will validate and
forward to database if success otherwise it will forward
to error.jsp saying invalid username and password..so this
can be treated as three tier.

Most of the time two tier is not recommended
because..According to Jsp specification..jsp are good to
use as presentation purpose but not for controlling and
performing bussiness logic..This is what all I know

Question { 16704 }

Differentiate regular regression testing and final
regression testing.

Answer

Regualar Regression testing is a process of re executing
the test cases on the modified build. Mainly we chect its
functionality and also to check if the inclusions or
modifications has any impacts on the existing software
functionalities.

Final regression testing is done at the end of test closure
reviews mainly concerned with high bug density areas.its
aslo knwn as pre-acceptance testing ...the test lead
conducts a test closure review to estimate completeness and
correctness of testing applying coverage analysis, bug
density and analysis of deferred bugs.

Question { HCL, 14099 }

What are the differences in testing a client-Server and a
web Application

Answer

hi

i want to add to dharshana's answer....
the tier has nothing to do with client/server or web
application. we can go for 2-tier in web application too
like fetching of static html pages from server. so plz dont
not use all client.server applications are two tier. one of
my project is a client server application built on n-tier
architecture...that is the business logic on server is
spilt into many units...i wish viewers tooo add to this
answer.

Answer

venky,

darshan is not clear, he is not specific about the
technology used in the eg he has considered. i wish he does
it for us to discuss more

if its web based den we could go for browser based else
we could go for .exe installation on clients we could use
remote logins to connect to the server. do correct me if i
am wrong. I wish someone throw highlight on thin or thick
client concept of client server architecture.
