Software Testing

Software testing is a crucial process in the software development life cycle aimed at identifying defects, verifying functionality, and validating whether the software meets specified requirements. It involves executing the software under controlled conditions to uncover bugs, errors, or potential issues. The ultimate goal is to ensure the software functions correctly, performs efficiently, and provides a positive user experience. Testing involves creating and executing test cases, analyzing results, and reporting defects to the development team for resolution.

Different types of testing, such as functional testing, performance testing, usability testing, and security testing, serve specific purposes in validating different aspects of the software.
