Testing Stretegy

Developing a testing strategy means to plan testing before we actually perform testing. Because different application have different testing requirements e.g. real time systems, client server applications, web applications, cloud applications and there are wide variety of testing techniques available targeting different aspects of software including usability testing, regression testing, fault based testing, unit testing it is very important to understand the nature of the application to be tested and define testing objectives accordingly and devising suitable strategy.

Different applications have different needs for instance for one application availability is big issue but for another application user satisfaction is most important. Testing strategy depends upon the requirements, where the application is deployed and which architecture and tools are being used for developing the application.

A testing strategy may be:

1. Defining testing objectives
2. Starting testing from module level
3. Using different testing techniques at different stages of application development
