Quality Assurance And Integration Testing Aspects In Web Based Applications
Integration testing is one the important phase in software testing life cycle
(STLC). With the fast growth of internet and web services, web-based
applications are also growing rapidly and their importance and complexity is
also increasing. Heterogeneous and diverse nature of distributed components,
applications, along with their multi-platform support and cooperativeness make
these applications more complex and swiftly increasing in their size. Quality
assurance of these applications is becoming more crucial and important. Testing
is one of the key processes to achieve and ensure the quality of these software
or Webbased products. There are many testing challenges involved in Web-based
applications. But most importantly integration is the most critical testing
associated with Web-based applications. There are number of challenging factors
involved in integration testing efforts. These factors have almost 70 percent
to 80 percent impact on overall quality of Web-based applications. In software
industry different kind of testing approaches are used by practitioners to
solve the issues associated with integration which are due to ever increasing
complexities of Web-based applications.Comment: 8 pages; http://airccse.org/journal/ijcsea/current2012.htm
