Manual Testing Questions and Answers

1. What is meant by Priority and severity?

Severity:

1.  This is assigned by the Test Engineer

2.  This is to say how badly the deviation that is occurring is affecting the other modules of the build or release.

Priority:

1.  This is assigned by the Developer.

2.  This is to say how soon the bug as to be fixed in the main code, so that it pass the basic requirement.

Egg. The code is to generate some values with some valid input conditions. The priority will be assigned so based on the following conditions:

a> It is not accepting any value

b> It is accepting value but output is in non-defined format (say Unicode Characters). A good example I used some Unicode characters to generate a left defined arrow, it displayed correctly but after saving changes it gave some address value from the Stack of this server. For more information mail me I will let you know.

2.  Give me some example for high severity and low priority defect?

If suppose the title of the particular concern is not spelled correctly, it would give a negative impacted ICICC is spelled as a title for the project of the concern ICICI. Then it is a high severity, low priority defect.

3.  What is basis for test case review?

The main basis for the test case review is

1.  Testing techniques oriented review

2.  Requirements oriented review

3.  Defects oriented review.

4.  What are the contents of SRS documents?

5.  What is difference between the Web application testing and Client Server testing? 

Testing the application in intranet (without browser) is an example for client -server. (The company firewalls for the server are not open to outside world. Outside people cannot access the application.)So there will be limited number of people using that application.

Testing an application in internet (using browser) is called web testing. The application which is accessible by numerous numbers around the world (World Wide Web.)

So testing web application, apart from the above said two testing there are many other testing to be done depending on the type of web application we are testing.

If it is a secured application (like banking site- we go for security testing etc.) If it is an e-commerce testing application we go for Usability etc… Testing.
