Our approach to software testing and quality assurance

Mistakes can be costly both in terms of reputation and resources. At Struktura, we prioritize quality through a rigorous software testing approach.

According these thoughts we would like to share a Guide to Choosing the Right Testing Approach.

Understanding Your Goals

Before diving into specific techniques, take a step back and define your testing goals. Are you aiming for broad functionality checks or pinpointing intricate errors? Is user experience a top priority? Knowing your objectives will guide your approach selection.

Popular Testing Approaches

Here's a breakdown of some common testing approaches:

  1. Black-Box Testing: This method treats the system as a "black box," focusing on functionality without delving into internal code. Think of it as testing a light switch - you press it and see if it turns on, not worrying about the electrical wiring. Black-box testing is excellent for user experience (UX) evaluation and high-level functionality checks.
  2. White-Box Testing: In contrast, white-box testing peeks under the hood, examining the internal structure and code. This approach is ideal for uncovering logic errors and ensuring code behaves as intended.Unit Testing: This involves testing individual units of code (like functions or classes) in isolation.
  3. Unit testing is crucial for catching bugs early in the development process.Integration Testing: As the name suggests, this approach focuses on how different units of code work together. Integration testing ensures modules interact seamlessly and data flows smoothly between them.
  4. Regression Testing: This retests functionalities that have already been passed to ensure they haven't broken due to new code additions. Regression testing is vital for maintaining a stable product.

Choosing the Right Approach

The best approach often involves a combination of these techniques. For instance, a project might start with black-box testing to get a high-level overview, followed by white-box testing to delve deeper into the code's functionality.

Here are some factors to consider when choosing your approach:

Project type:?A simple website might call for a different testing strategy than a complex software application.

Project timeline:?Time constraints may influence the level of testing detail.

Risk factors:?Identify areas with a high potential for errors and tailor your testing approach accordingly.

We believe in a multi-layered approach that combines manual and automated testing throughout the development lifecycle. This provides full coverage, detection of functional and non-functional problems in the early stages.

Remember, testing is an ongoing process. By employing a well-defined testing approach and adapting it throughout the development lifecycle, you'll ensure a robust, high-quality final product
