Software Test Life Cycle FAQ
Software Test Process or Software Test Life Cycle may vary from One fellowship to around other too one project to another, exactly what I am going to explicate is Industry Standard process.
Some companies may non follow formal procedure due to lack of documentation too Time etc...
--------------------------------------------------
1) What are Important Phases of Software Test Process?
Four Important phases of Software Test Life Cycle or Software Test Process,
i) Test Planning
ii) Test Design
iii) Test Execution
iv) Test Closure
--------------------------------------------------
2) What are References / Input for Test Planning Phase?
