Functional testing is the basic and the most critical part of the software testing. Implement the testing from the uses perspective can find the defects and bug, which developers unable to detect during the code review process. No matter how the code quality is, the defects that found in the functional testing are not acceptable.
UniTesting China Company from the autonomous point of view, and not biased on client’s development team, to helps clients implement the product functional testing to measure software product quality, and to help them improve software product quality. These kinds of testing are from professional testers’ perspectives; it cannot be replaced by client's own development team and business team.
UniTesting China Company has a complete test methodology and the appropriate tools to ensure software functionality testing.
Function tests include:
1. Solution and Plan
Before the functional testing project starts, or in the first step, is to make sure the testing solution and plan.
In test plan, the project team has to make clear who is going to do the test, when the testing work start, and the resources that the project team needs.
Project manager has to keep a principle in mind: time and resource are limited, so you have to carefully control the range of testing work.
That is why, in test solution, the project team must answer the question: what is to be tested, how to test.
For example, to determine:
- The emphasis to be focused on
- The difficulties we might to have
- The key techniques we are going to use
- Which part is the one that errors are easily exposed?
- Which part is more concerned about by the customer?
2. Understanding the Functional Requirements
Understand the functional requirements from the user's perspective. This process normally requires obtaining specification from the customer and then having a further study and discussion, which in order to ensure our test team is able to understand software requirements.
A very important step is to determine the functional requirements test coverage. UniTesting China company divide coverage into three types, which to better ensure coverage:
|
Test Execution
|
Defect Type
|
Comments
|
|
Test Case Guided
|
Case Covered
|
Significant for Customer
|
|
Test Criterion Guided
|
Case Uncovered Conventional
|
Easily to Detect

3. Functional Test Design
After totally understanding the requirements, we will perform the testing in the form of writing testing cases. The design content is not only including function descriptions from client, but also involves some required test criteria which based on our testing experiences. For the test implementation, it also needs to design and create the effective test data.
4. Test Execution
Execute functional testing, and run all the test cases and entry defects/issues/bug into bug tracking tool. Regularly monitor bug resolve situation.
UniTesting China Company takes the advantage of test automation solution to help client save cost and time at the appropriate time and at the appropriate area. Regarding on testing automation, please refer to……
5. Report
UniTesting China Company is not only focusing on functional testing of software, but more importantly, we make the analysis of software quality and present a comprehensive evaluation based on the testing results. Meanwhile, we will offer our suggestion from the technical point of view to help our customers to improve their software products.
