What is Functional Testing?
- Software testing that assesses an application’s functionality by confirming that it functions as intended and satisfies the requirements is known as functional testing. The goal of functional testing is to make sure that the Application works properly from the user’s perspective and serves the purpose for which it was created.
- By giving inputs and analysing the outputs to make sure the findings are accurate, functional testing entails evaluating the specific features or functions of an application. It determines if the user’s expectations are met by the software programme and whether it responds effectively to user inputs and delivers accurate results.
- Manual or automated technologies can be used to carry out functional testing. Black-box testing, white-box testing, or a combination of the two could be a part of it. White-box testing entails evaluating the programme while being aware of its internal workings, such as code or logic, whereas black-box testing involves testing the software without being aware of its internal workings.
- Functional testing contributes to the overall quality and dependability of software applications and is a crucial step in the software development life cycle.
Our Functional Testing Procedure
- Gather Functional Requirements: Determine the system’s functional requirements before evaluating the system’s functioning. It’s critical to know the functional specifications that the system is expected to satisfy. Reviewing the system requirements and specifications documentation will help with this.
- Test Scenario Designing: The next step is to create test scenarios based on the functional requirements. A series of procedures known as test scenarios must be followed in order to evaluate the system’s functionality.
- Test Case Designing: A test case is a particular instance of a test scenario that has a particular set of input parameters and an expected set of results. These were developed to test particular system elements or functionalities.
- Test Case Execution: Execute the tests: The functional testing procedure may start after the test cases have been developed. The tests are run, and the outcomes are noted.
- Result Analysis: Following the execution of the tests, the outcomes are examined to see if the system is operating as anticipated. Any discovered flaws or problems are submitted to the development team for correction.
- Repeat the entire Process: It could be necessary to repeat the testing procedure numerous times until all flaws and problems are fixed and the system is completely operational.
- Final Sign off: The system can be certified as satisfying the functional criteria once it has successfully completed all functional testing.
