TESTING METHODOLOGIES (Types of Testing)

Depending upon the application, we decide what type of testing we do for the various features of the application. We should also define and describe each type of testing we mention in the testing methodologies so that everybody (developers team, management, testing team) can understand, because testing terminologies are not universal.

For example, we have to test  www.quickr.com, we do the following types of testing,

Smoke testing                                Functional testing                           

Integration testing                          System testing

Regression testing                          Globalization testing                      

Accessibility testing                        Usability testing

For standalone applications, like Cadence, we do the following types of testing,
