Basics for Quality Assurance testing

Hi

So looks like you are now to Quality Assurance processes.

The meaning of manual testing is the testing a product manually.  

There are many types of testing processes in the industry. Some testing processes can change according to the product and the methodology that each company uses.

However the Test Plane and the Test Cases are the most important things in testing processes.  

Black box testing is a testing method. In their test only what is the output for the given input. We do not need to worry about the internal process. We only need to see how much the output satisfy the user end requirements.

And yes it is really important. Because this test is done as a end user. The final destination of the any project is to satisfy the end user requirements.

The thing we call as perfect means better than others. So there is no perfect site.

Thanks
