Abstract

Software Testing is an important area of research in the field of software engineering because it is the deciding factor for successful project release and directly proportion to software quality and reliability. A lot of research has been already done in this field, likely to be leveraged in future as software has become integral part of each and every domain to make it faster, easier and smarter. Software testing is regarded as the most important phase of software development process, as without testing it is impossible to diagnose errors. This paper explains the phases, principles and limitations of software testing. We tried to accumulate principles after detailed analysis of phases of testing, based on available methodologies, users involved & importance of software testing. All the terms which are considered as building blocks of software testing are discussed in this paper to enhance the overall quality of a system and to ensure successful project release.
