What is smoke testing? When to use it? Advantages and Disadvantages
Smoke testing is a type of software testing which ensures that the major functionalities of the application are working fine. This testing is also known as ‘Build Verification testing’. It is a non-exhaustive testing with very limited test cases to ensure that the important features are working fine and we are good to proceed with the detailed testing.
The term ‘smoke’ testing is originated from [Read more…] about What is smoke testing? When to use it? Advantages and Disadvantages
What are Agile Testing and Agile Development Activities?
The main objective in Agile is to generate working software at the end of iteration and receive feedback from the customer, to provide early business value to the stakeholders.

Design, development and testing happens iteratively throughout the sprint and not at the end of the iteration. All the developers and testers will work together as a team to reach the iteration goal. [Read more…] about What are Agile Testing and Agile Development Activities?
What are the advantages or benefits of using testing tools?

Examples of this type of repetitive work include running regression tests, entering the same test data again and again (can be done by a test execution tool), checking against coding standards (which can be done by a static analysis tool) or creating a specific test database (which can be done by a test data preparation tool).
