Software Quality Assurance Introduction

-
Hello again everyone, I am taking Software Quality Assurance class and once again, I will be using this blog to summarize about what I've learned through articles and podcast throughout the semester. I've been doing internship the whole summer about software quality assurance on both UI and unit testing and I learned a lot from it, and now hopefully, this class will help me expand those knowledge even further on this area.

For this week Apprenticeship Pattern, I chose to read about “Reflect As You Work”.

The pattern starts with putting out the question of whenever a developer can consider themselves as “experienced” and how would that process be in order to reach that destination.

I think this particular technique would greatly help a lot of new developers in the field who does not know what to expect when developing and would end up doing wh

Static testing and Dynamic testing

-
Static testing and Dynamic testing is two different approaches to testing available for developers and testers in the software development process. In order to get the most out of these tests, this has to be chosen carefully and it is important to understand the benefits and the limitations of each one. Static testing is a test method where code are not being executed and it can be done manually or using a set of tools. This type of testing would check the syntax, required documentation and design of the code. Static testing also includes security testing to analyze the software for potential errors, code flaws, or vulnerabilities. This method can be start in the early development stage of the program, and it can be done on work documents like specification documents, design documents, web page contents, etc. Static testing techniques include: -  Inspection: The main purpose of this is to find defections. This task can be reviewing the check lists, work documents, or code walkthroug
