Difference between use case and the test case

-









Use case:


  Defined as the path that an user might adopt in order to achieve the goal. The use case will describe multiple paths that the user can follow within the use case. The use case are prepared in the form of actor and system.

Test case:

A test case represents one set of inputs that exercises a single use case scenario.For example:Lets consider account creation.An user might fill in all the fields and try creating or might not likely to produce some of the information while creating. such types of path that a user initiates are known as use case and the steps that are being performed by an user for a successful completion of use case are the test case.

Type of Performance Test

-
Image
The focus of Performance testing is checking a software program's Speed - Determines whether the application responds quickly Scalability - Determines maximum user load the software application can handle. Stability - Determines if the application is stable under varying loads Below are the type of performance tests that you could perform to determine the above factors: Load testing -  checks the application's ability to perform under anticipated user loads. The objective is to identify performance bottlenecks before the software application goes live. Stress testing -  involves testing an application under extreme workloads to see how it handles high traffic or data processing. The objective is to identify breaking point of an application. Endurance testing -  is done to make sure the software can handle the expected load over a long period of time. Spike testing -  tests the software's reaction to sudden large spikes in the loa...

SDLC - Software development life cycle

-
This is an approach generally adopted for any application development process which is being recognized and accepted globally. It is a set of structured program or task that any organisation would follow for an efficient and productive product, they deliver in each release. The SDLC consist of the following framework as follows, 1.Planning and requirement analysis. 2. Defining the requirement: Developing the SRS (Software requirement specification) from the gathered requirement. 3.Designing the product architecture.: With the complete SRS document a design document specification is prepared which is composed of all the architectural modules even the communication and data flow with in the. 4.Development: The development phase is totally in relationship with the DDS. 5.Testing: In modern SDLC model testing is being implemented over all the stages. 6.Maintenance: This is mainly done for the existing customers once the product is being released and b...

What are the Fundamental Test Process?

-

  Planning and Control: Test planning  has following major tasks: i.  To determine the scope and risks and identify the objectives of testing. ii. To determine the test approach. iii. To implement the test policy or the  test strategy . iv. To determine the required test resources like people, test environments etc. v. To schedule test analysis and design tasks, test implementation, execution and evaluation. vi. To determine the  Exit criteria  we need to set criteria such as  Coverage criteria.  (Coverage criteria are the percentage of statements in the software that must be executed during testing. This will help us track whether we are completing test activities correctly. They will show us which tasks and checks we must complete for a particular   level of testing before we can say that testing is finished.)  Test control  has the following major tasks: i.  To measure and analyze the resul...
