    Use the
    Student Book
    to answer the
    following
    questions
    WHY SOFTWARE TESTING IS
    IMPORTANT?
    enables you to see what the software does and how well it does it so that the
    business can measure the quality of the software before it goes live.
    WHEN SOFTWARE TESTING APPLIED?
    • Look at the figure and answer for
    the two SDLC Waterfall
    methedology

    process of evaluating and verifying that a software product


    or application does what it is supposed to do.
    TYPES OF TESTING
    • Read page 28 – 29
    • Differentiate between manual testing, and automation testing.
    • When each type can be used?

    • manual testing, and automation testing. In manual testing, the software is tested by
    humans and in automation testing tools are used to perform test cases. See the table below.
    METHODS OF TESTING

    • Mention the three methods of testing

    black-box, grey-box, and white-box testing methods.
