Testing

Question	Answer
Testing....	It's vital that any new system is thoroughly tested before it goes live. testing involves working step-by-step through the test plan, with the test data produced in the design and recording the results of the tests. Any tests that dont produce the required result will be the subject of a corrective action.
Module/unit testing...	something known as unit or component testing, and it involves testing the individual sections of the software to make sure that each section works as intended.
Integration testing...	when module testing is completed, the modules are combined one at a time at each integration stage and debugged.
Functional testing...	This is intended to test the operation of the system and may pick up errors that were missed at the module/unit testing stage.they are the first indication that the solution is likely to meet its user requirements specification.
System Testing...	this tests the complete, integrated solution in preparation for user testing. it checks that all the modules operate together properly and that a transaction is processed correctly throughout the system from beginning to the end.
User testing...	This is were the actual users of the system will put it through its paces and offer their comments.
Operational testing...	this is conducted in the actual environment in which the solution will be working, or perhaps a simulated version of that environment.
