- 10. SOFTWARE QUALITY ASSURANCE vs Testing Do you know about Types of Testings in SQA?
- 11. SOFTWAREQUALITY ASSURANCE vs Testing Testing in Software Quality Assurance (SQA) is the process of assessing a software application to identify defects and ensure it meets specified requirements.
- 12. Manual testing is when people check software by clicking around, trying different things, and making sure it works correctly without using automated tools. MANUAL TESTING Automation testing is when a computer program, checks if software works correctly. It repeats predefined steps and compares actual outcomes with expected results to find errors. AUTOMATION TESTING TYPES OF TESTING
- 13. 01 02 03 04 ACCEPTANCE TESTING: Confirming that the software meets user expectations and is ready for release. SYSTEM TESTING: Evaluating the entire system's functionality to ensure it meets specified requirements. INTEGRATION TESTING: Checking if different units/modules work together as a group. UNIT TESTING: Testing individual parts (units) of the software to ensure they work correctly. REGRESSION TESTING: Ensuring that new changes don't negatively impact existing functionalities. 05 WHATARETHEDIFFERENTTYPES OFMANUALTESTING?
- 14. 01 02 03 04 API TESTING: Automating tests to verify the functionality and reliability of application programming interfaces. UI TESTING: AUTOMATING TESTS TO VALIDATE THE GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE'S FUNCTIONALITY AND APPEARANCE. LOAD TESTING: Automating tests to assess the software's performance under varying levels of load or stress. FUNCTIONAL TESTING: Automating tests to verify that the software functions according to specifications. WHATARETHETYPESOF AUTOMATIONTESTING?

Documentation with step by step Instructions to execute. Test Cases are derived from Test Scenarios. Test cases have in depth information the actions that have to be performed. Test Cases & Test Scenarios Test Cases Test Scenarios
- 18. BestPracticestowrite TestCases • Steps to execute should be clear • Add test data in pre condition • Make sure your test cases are reviewed • Write better test cases for multiple times, same time case • Improper testcases leads to bugs so make sure you add • Test cases gives you clarity what is covered what not • Make test cases reusable • Specify accepted results and assumptions

- 22. APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, are rules, protocols, and tools that define how different software applications or systems can interact and communicate. They act as intermediaries, enabling seamless communication and data exchange between diverse software components, allowing them to access functionalities and services without needing to understand each other's internal workings. What areAPI’s?
- 23. WhatisAPI Testing? API Testing is a practice specifically focused on evaluating the functionality, reliability, performance, and security of Application Programming Interfaces. It involves validating whether the API functions as expected, correctly handling various inputs and outputs, and adhering to predefined specifications or standards. API Testing aims to identify defects or issues in the API's behavior, ensuring that it meets functional requirements, performs efficiently, and provides reliable and secure data transmission. Mission You can perform Functional Testing, Reliability Testing, Performance Testing, Security Testing, Load Testing, etc, with API Testing.
- 24. APITestingwith Postman Postman's API Workspace is a versatile and collaborative platform that revolutionizes how teams design, develop, and test APIs. It serves as a centralized hub where developers, testers, and stakeholders can seamlessly collaborate, streamline workflows, and elevate the API development process.
- 25. TypesofHTTPrequestin postman 1. GET : The GET method retrieves information from the given server using a given URI. Requests using GET should only retrieve data and should have no other effect on the data. 2. POST : A POST request is used to send data to the server, for example, customer information, file upload, etc. using HTML forms. 3. PUT : PUT is used to send data to a server to create/update a resource. Replaces all the current representations of the target resource with the uploaded content. 4. DELETE : The DELETE method deletes the specified resource.
