Before you launch the software product into the market you have to test the product thoroughly. You need to ensure that your designed software product is precise and accurate.

This is a software development testing procedure that is carried out by the professionals using latest testing tools. Before proceeding further, let’s have a look at the different phases of the testing lifecycle.

Important steps of the software testing process:

Software testing is a stepwise procedure and it is necessary to follow every step to get a flawless product. Take a look at the important steps of the software testing process followed by the professionals:

· First comes the requirement analysis in which the testers have to check the specifications and requirements of the software. They segregate the testable aspects to check the functional and non-functional aspects of the software.

· The tester has to check details like the objective of the product to look out for any drawbacks in the product. In addition, the tester also performs an automation feasibility check on the software.

· After this, the QA testers do the test planning. Based on the planning, they prepare the documentation for the same. In this step, the time required for the testing, the tools and the techniques that have to be used, and other related facts are decided. Also, the tester decides whether a manual or automated test system has to be used.

· Then next comes the phase of test case designing and development. In this step the creation of test cases, preparation of automated scripts for the cases etc. is done by the professionals

· After this, the test environment is set up by understanding the software and hardware requirements.

· After this comes the part of test execution and this involves running the test cases and identifying any deviation in the expected working of the product. The details of the failed cases are noted down.

· Lastly, the experts fix the bugs that are identified in the product. Later on, the product is tested again to find out more flaws, if any.

If one does not have an in-house QA testing team then they can always outsource the project to a reliable QA testing company. AskmeQA is a company of well-qualified and skilled professionals from where you can hire perfectionists for your software development testing project.
