The Basic of Software Testing (Week 4)

This post is dedicated to the fundamentals of software testing. First is important  to learn and practice the basic of software testing techniques before you step into the advanced testings. In this article, I'm listing the eight most important basics of software testing that are very important to master before you move forward.

1. Software Quality-Software quality is the degree of conformance to explicit or implicit requirements and expectations.
2. Dimensions of Software Quality- There are so many dimensions, here I listing some of them: Accessibility, Compatibility, Concurrency, Efficiency, Functionality, Functionality, Installability, Localizability, Maintainability, Performance, Portability, Reliability, Scalability, Security, Testability, and Usability, there are more dimensions but this is the most useful dimensions to know before you step forward with software testing.
3. Software Quality Assurance- Software Quality Assurance is a set of activities for ensuring quality in software engineering processes.
4.  Software Quality Control- Software Quality Control is a set of activities for ensuring quality in software products.
5. SQA and SQC Differences- SQA is process-focused and prevention-oriented but SQC is product-focused and detection-oriented. 
6. Software Development Life Cycle-Software Development Life Cycle defines the steps/ stages/ phases in the building of software.
7. Software Testing Life Testing- Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) defines the steps/ stages/ phases in the testing of software. 
8. Definition of Test- Merriam Webster defines Test as “a critical examination, observation, or evaluation”. 

These eight basic concepts are important to go more in depth because can help us to be beter software tester in the future.
