How can World Wide Web sites be tested?

Web sites are essentially client/server applications - with web servers and 'browser' clients. Consideration should be given to the interactions between html pages, TCP/IP communications, Internet connections, firewalls, applications that run in web pages (such as applets, javascript, plug-in applications), and applications that run on the server side (such as cgi scripts, database interfaces, logging applications, dynamic page generators, asp, etc.). Additionally, there are a wide variety of servers and browsers, various versions of each.

What are the components of a test plan?

A Test Plan has objective, scope, entrance criteria, exit criteria, features to be tested, features not to be tested, approach, item pass fail criteria, Suspension Criteria and Resumption Requirements, Test Deliverables, Environmental Needs, Staffing and Training Needs, Schedule, risk analysis, approval

What is software 'quality'?

Quality software is reasonably bug-free, delivered on time and within budget, meets requirements and/or expectations, and is maintainable.

What is 'Software Quality Assurance'?

Software QA involves the entire software development PROCESS - monitoring and improving the process, making sure that any agreed-upon standards and procedures are followed, and ensuring that problems are found and dealt with. It is oriented to 'prevention'

What is Software Quality Assurance?

Software Quality Assurance

“A planned and systematic pattern of all actions necessary to provide adequate confidence that the item or product conforms to established technical requirements.”

IEEE STD 610.12-1990

SQA ensures

• An application is error-free and there is no bug,
• Dependable,
• Fully documented,
• Maintainable down the line,
• Entirely functional according to every specification and requirement.
• Make sure that ordinary people, regular users, will be able to do everything that the application is supposed to empower them to do.

How software quality can be achieved?

Achievement of quality would be easy if we are doing the things

• Apply software engineering methods in effective manner
  
• Perform formal technical reviews as per required
  
• Software metrics and measurements
• By testing the software on the right time
  
• SCM(Software Configuration Management) and SQA(Software Quality Assurance)
  
• and by following standards and procedures.

After doing the above steps you would be able to get a quality product
