Master the Art of Quality Assurance with Our Comprehensive Software Testing Course!
Software Testing Training in Pune
Software testing is the process of systematically evaluating a software application or system to ensure it functions correctly, meets specified requirements, and is free of defects. It involves executing the software with the intent of identifying bugs or issues, improving its quality, and ensuring it meets user expectations. The ultimate goal is to deliver a reliable, secure, and efficient product.
Course highlights:
Error Detection: Identifies bugs, errors, or defects in the software before it is deployed.
Quality Assurance: Ensures that the software meets the required quality standards and functions as expected.
Validation & Verification: Confirms that the software meets both functional and non-functional requirements (e.g., performance, security).
Cost-Effective: Detecting defects early in the development process saves money and effort by preventing future complications.
Automation & Manual Testing: Testing can be manual or automated, with automated testing being faster for repetitive tasks
Types of Testing: Includes various testing methodologies like unit testing, integration testing, system testing, acceptance testing, and more.
