DESCRIPTION

Software testing denotes to a series of tests to assess any software product’s quality. There are many types of tests that can or should be performed to find out if an application runs as it is intended to. Any company that develops software products will also have a separate unit for testing the products. But some companies also outsource the testing procedure to specialized testing companies that specialize in it. There are many companies that provide testing solutions. Whether it’s a same company that develops and tests its products or outsource the testing job to testing companies, they all follow certain procedures to test any software product.

Ajax Development – Use Web Services Testing Tools for Great Results

Software testing denotes to a series of tests to assess any software product’s quality. There are many types of tests that can or should be performed to find out if an application runs as it is intended to. Any company that develops software products will also have a separate unit for testing the products. But some companies also outsource the testing procedure to specialized testing companies that specialize in it. There are many companies that provide testing solutions. Whether it’s a same company that develops and tests its products or outsource the testing job to testing companies, they all follow certain procedures to test any software product. Software testing is so important that it has to be done in all phases of software development to ensure all components and modules of the application are working properly. Usually unit test is done to find out if the software is fit for use by checking the source code for errors and inconsistencies. Most of the bugs are found in this test and fixed. Software should also be tested to make it error-free, i.e., software applications are built using different logics and each of them should serve the other otherwise the software may exhibit odd behav iors and can even crash or provide erroneous results. For example, a currency converter application, if coded with errors won’t be able to correctly convert from one currency to another. The same thing applies for all others. A software with bugs can even be devastating to business in the financial industry. If a banking software calculates wrongly, that can be disastrous to the bank. Just like standalone applications, web applications are becoming more popular now. More and more people are using web applications after the penetration of internet and web 2.0. Most of the web applications are developed with the latest technologies like PHP, Java, Ajax,.Net and many more. Out of these Ajax development is taking momentum as it enables asynchronous communication to the server from client side without interfering with the display. Ajax development has become famous and most of the companies are using it to produce non-intrusive web applications that work just like standalone desktop applications.

These web applications are getting more popular and now being used by millions of people especially after the emergence of social networking websites. All these applications undergo a series of web services testing to ensure they are capable of running on browsers with no errors. To ensure they run without causing any slowdown or crashes web application load testing is performed. Web services testing and web application load testing can also be automated using specialized automated software testing tools to perform repetitive tests for several times automatically to save time and make the testing process more efficient. Web application load testing is very important in Ajax development and can be automated using automation testing tools. PushToTest is one of the companies that provide the best automated software testing tools. Please visit http://www.pushtotest.com for more details.
