Software Testing Types:
Beta testing:
Beta testing is a type of user acceptance testing. The end users test the software in the real environment for its acceptance. Beta testing can be performed in various ways. For e.g.: an ATM software is tested by the customers of bank installed on few ATMs, the mobile apps can be tested by an employee group within client organisation, a commercial software can be provided as trial or beta version before making it licensed one. In all the scenarios, the testing is performed from end user perspective.
Big bang testing:
Big bang testing is an approach for integration testing. All the software and hardware components are integrated and tested as one system. Big bang testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
Black box testing or specification based testing:
In the black box testing or specification based testing, the test cases or conditions are based on the specifications of the requirements. It is either functional or non functional testing. The testing is done on the behaviour of the software without the visibility of the programs on the screen. The system testing by QA team and user acceptance testing by the end users are examples of black box testing.
Application based testing:
The application based testing or web application based testing. The web applications are tested on the different systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security and various features.

Beta testing : It is a type of user acceptance testing. This testing is second phase of software testing in which applications are subjected to real world testing by the intended audience for the software. For e.g.: an ATM software is tested by the customers of bank installed on few ATMs, the mobile apps can be tested by an employee group within client organisation, a commercial software can be provided as trial etc.
Big Bang Testing: This testing is an integration testing strategy where in all unit are linked at once, resulting in a complete system. It’s very difficult to isolate the defects .Big bang testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
Black Box Testing: In the black box testing or specification based testing, the test cases or conditions are based on the specifications of the requirements. It is either functional or non functional testing. The system testing is done by QA team & end users.
The application based testing: The application based testing or web application based testing. The web applications are tested on the different systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security and various features.
Beta Testing: Sometimes games are launched as beta version to test how the game is being liked by users.
Big bang testing: Where all components are linked and tested as one unit.
Black box: System testing of the application.
Application based testing: Web application based testing.
Ans. : The examples of the scenarios/ software for each of above different types of testing:
– Beta Testing: The end users test the Beta software in the real environment for its acceptance. Beta testing can be performed in various ways. For e.g. an ATM software is tested by the customers of bank installed on few ATMs, the mobile apps can be tested by an employee group within client organization, a commercial software can be provided as trial or beta version before making it licensed one.
– Big Bang Testing: Big bang testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
– Black Box Testing: The testing is done on the behavior of the software without the visibility of the programs on the screen. For eg. the system testing by QA team and user acceptance testing by the end users.
Application Testing: The web applications are tested on the different systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security and various features.
Beta testing: Music streaming application is tested by users under real environment before launching it to the market.
Big bang testing: Amazon website
Black box testing: The system testing by QA team and user acceptance testing by the end users
Application based testing: For desktop applications, testing should take into account the UI, business logic, database, reports, roles and rights, integrity, usability, functionality, performance, security, hardware & software compatibility and data flow.
For web applications, testers should give sufficient importance to performance, load, and security of the application. Other main testing types covered under web application testing are functional testing, cross-browser testing, UAT, Beta testing, regression testing, compatibility testing, smoke testing, exploratory testing, compatibility & Multilanguage support testing and stress testing.
For mobile applications, the main types of testing that should be done are UI testing, Rule-based testing, regression, functional and security testing.
So AUT (application under test) is either desktop software or a website or a mobile app.
1. Beta Testing: Beta testing is a type of User Acceptance testing where the user test the software in its intended environment. For eg: ATM machine software is tested in a few banks, or Mobile application is tested by a few employees in the organization
2. Big Bang Testing: Is an approach for integration testing. Under big bang testing, all the software and hardware components are tested as one system to see its performance on the whole.
3. Black Box testing: It is either functional or non functional. The test will check the behaviour of the software without the visibility of the programs on the screen. The System Testing done by QA and UAT done by client are examples of black box testing. in balck box testing the test cases or conditions are based on the specifications of the requirements.
4. Application based Testing: Is also known as web testing. The web applications are tested on different systems, browsers for funcionality, usabilitu, interfaces, performace, security etc.
Beta testing : this is having end users testing the final product before it goes live. Trying to get any other ‘bugs’ out of the system.
Big bang testing – this is when the team is testing all the different integration systems that are all hooked up to the software. Example: E-commerce websites
Black box testing :performing specific test cases that were created around the requirements from the client.
Application based testing – this is testing that is with different systems, browsers, performance, security, and so on.

Big bang testing:
Big bang testing is an approach for integration testing. All the software and hardware components are integrated
and tested as one system. Big bang testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work
as one whole system.eg
Application based testing:
The application based testing or web application based testing. The web applications are tested on the different
systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security and various features.
eg:gamil application checking on different browsers and differt versions of browses.
Black box testing or specification based testing:
In the black box testing or specification based testing, the test cases or conditions are based on the specifications
of the requirements. It is either functional or non functional testing. The testing is done on the behaviour of the
software without the visibility of the programs on the screen eg:system testing ,uat
Beta testing: UAT done in real environment is called Beta Testing. For example: Select dealers using new stock tracking software developed for a hardware manufacturing firm before being launched for all the dealers.
Big bang testing: all software and hardware being tested together as one system. For example: whole system integration test run on newly developed drone

example: A fast food chain updated the digital menu and added new menu items and deals.
The software is tested by the users by installing the updated software in few locations first.
Big Bang testing:
example: testing all the modules of a fast food chain’s digital ordering and delivery.
You integrate the menus, ordering ,delivery and payment modules and test how they all work together as a system.
Black box testing:
examples are checking Gmail login functionality, making sure the web based application opens in different browsers.
Application based testing:
example would be,testing if the application opens properly in different operating systems.
Beta Testing – end user testing eg: we can become a Microsoft beta tester – For example, you may be required to sign a form to not write about the product or post screenshots while beta testing. Usually, you will be asked to provide feedback and to report any bugs to the publisher.
Big Bang Testing -Suppose a system consists of four modules as displayed in the diagram above. In big bang integration all the four modules ‘Module A, Module B, Module C and Module D’ are integrated simultaneously and then the testing is performed.
Black Box Testing – to test the functions of a calculator that does a+b=c. User enters various ranges of inputs like 1+2, 1+2+5, etc. and verify the result without getting into how the calculator does it.
Application based Testing – Test requests are sent correctly to the Database and output at the client side is displayed correctly. Errors if any must be caught by the application and must be only shown to the administrator and not the end user.
Examples of Beta testing:
an ATM software tested by the customers of the bank in a few ATM’s ; a commercial software provided with trail version before making it a licensed one.
Examples of Big Bang Testing:
Suppose you have modules from 1 to 6. In Big Bang Testing all these modules from module 1 to module 6 are integrated simultaneously and then the testing is done.
Examples of black box testing:
Suppose there is a form wherein the user needs to enter the 1st number , 2nd number(both are textboxes) ; click on any Arthematic operations (add, subtract, divide, multiply)(all are buttons) ; and then click on the result button. So the user just inputs some numbers and gets the output. The user doesn’t have any idea what is happening inside.
Examples of application based testing:
Tools like Selenium etc are used for application based testing.
Beta testing is a type of user acceptance testing.
example : mobile apps can be tested by an employee group within client organization and testing is performed by the end user.

Software testing types with examples?
Beta testing:
Beta testing is a user acceptance testing . It means testing performed by user in real environment
Eg: ATM
Big Bang testing:
It is an integration testing wherein all modules are integrated and tested as one system.
Blackbox testing:
It’s a testing technique where functionality of application is tested without looking at internal code,implementation details. This type of testing is based entirely on software requirements specification.
Application based Testing:
Application testing is a process through which the functionality, usability, and consistency of the entire application are tested.
Beta testing: is a typeof user acceptance testing. it is performed by end users in real time environment. this is performed just before releasing the software to public.
Big bang testing: in this type of testing all the modules are brought together and linked at once without performing integration test for individual modules. This is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
Black box testing or specification based testing: This type of testing is based on requirement specifications and does not consider the structure of the program. System testing UAT are examples of black box testing.
Application based testing: testing the web application on different browsers, and different systems.
Beta Testing: A field test of the beta version of a software especially by testers outside the company developing it that is conducted prior to commercial release.
Big Bang Testing: Big Bang Integration Testing is an integration testing strategy wherein all units are linked at once, resulting in a complete system.
Black Box Testing: Black box testing is a software testing techniques in which functionality of the software under test is tested without looking at the internal code structure, implementation details and knowledge of internal paths of the software.
Application based Testing: Application testing is a process through which the functionality, usability, and consistency of the entire application are tested.
Beta Testing is used at the final stage of a software development, it used to ensure the software will be able to perform as it should.
Black box testing is used to track the behavior of the software and is done by the QA.
Big Bang testing is where the software and hardware are tested at the same time.
Application based testing are tested on different platforms (interfaces, browsers, etc.)
1) Beta Testing – It is a type of User Acceptance testing where the end users test the software in the real environment. For example, Walmart is testing a beta version of its website with actual customers to check if they are able to navigate and shop on the site easily.
2) Big Bang testing – Big Bang testing is an type of integration testing where all the software and hardware components are integrated together at once and then tested as a whole. For example, a company has several teams developing different modules of a retail site. Once the modules are developed they are integrated and tested as a whole.
3) Black box testing or specification based testing – The testing is done on the behaviour of the software without the visibility of the programs on the screen. The system testing by QA team and user acceptance testing by the end users are examples of black box testing.
4) Application based testing – In this type web applications are tested on the different systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security and various features. This type tests either desktop software, a website or a mobile application.

Beta testing: This is a type of user acceptance testing in the real environment for its acceptance.
eg: ATM software tested by customer of a bank.
Big Bang testing: All the software and hardware components are integrated and tested as one system.
eg: performed to make sure all the modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
Black box testing: the testing is done on the behavior of the software without the visibility of the programs on the screen.
eg: system testing by QA.
Application based testing: The web applications are tested on different systems. Browsers for functionality, usability, interfaces, performance, security .
eg: google, safari.
Beta testing: Beta testing comes under User Acceptance testing where the software is tested by the users in the real Environment. Example: Beta version of software is released to users. Feedback is collected to fix any defects in the future release versions of software.
Big bang testing: Big Bang Testing comes under Integration Testing. All the software components/modules are integrated and tested as one unit. Example: Shopping website where different modules are integrated and tested as one unit.
Black box testing or specification based testing: This type of testing is based on specific requirement. The software is tested on how it is supposed to work (input/output) and not what is involved. System test by QA and User Acceptance test come under Black box testing. Example: Mobile Banking functionality
Application based testing/Web Application based testing: The Web Application is tested on different operations systems, browsers, interfaces. Features like security, functionality, performance, user friendliness, compatibility are tested. Example is http://www.google.com website
Assignment No: 9
1. Write the examples of the scenarios/ software for each of above different types of testing.
a) Beta Testing: – It is a kind of user acceptance testing, The common people test the software in real environment. For Example: Testing the banking deposit.
b) Big Bang Testing : – It is a kind of integration testing where all the modules are integrated and tested together and to check the whole system is working. For example: integrating the shopping sites with different kinds of banks.
c) BlackBox Testing: – It is also called as specification based testing, these kind of testing is done by the software testers and for this kind of testing internal code knowledge is not needed.
d) Application based testing: – It is also called as web application based testing, They are tested using different kids of browsers, systems for functionalities to check the usability, interfaces, security etc., For example: Checking the banking application is different browsers
1.Beta testing-Versions of the software ,known as beta versions, are released to limited audience outside of the product .Sometimes, they are made available to the open public to increase the feedback field to a maximum number of future users.
2.Big Bang testing-An approach for integration testing. This testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system.
3.Black box testing-Black box test design treats the system as ‘Black Box’ wherein the tester can’t see what is put inside .Hence, we design test cases in such a way that we pour the input in one end of the box ,and expect a certain specific output from the other end of the box. Also called as specification based testing.
4.Application Based Testing-Also known as web based testing .The web applications ae tested on the different systems ,browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performances, security and various other features.
Beta testing: it is a type of the user acceptance testing in which the system is tested by a small no. of users in the real world. For example: a bank installs its ATM at some locations to test by the regular customers before doing the installation at the broad level. Other example a survey website. Get the surveys done by a small group to see if it works properly.
Big Bang testing: In this method, all the s/w components are combined directly and make a sophisticated system. This unity of various modules is tested as an entity. The integration process will not be executed until all components are completed. Such an approach supports to save the tester’s time and effort while executing tests. So, it is beneficial for small and simple software where testing needs to be done quickly. As a single mistake can influence the results of the whole integration testing, it is not recommended for large and complex systems.
Black box testing: It consist of system testing and user acceptance testing. For example, for the functional testing of a s/w, test cases are created based on the requirements to check the functionality of the s/w. No need to know the programming behind the function. Just need to check if the s/w is working acc. to the customer req. UAT is done by real users to check the working of the s/w without knowing the details about development.
Application based testing: For example Facebook application. You can check it by opening it in different OS, different browsers and different devices. Most of the applications have different look on computer and smartphones. So testing needs to be done to check if they looks and work as required.
Beta testing: eg: ATM,
Big Bang: eg: Banking application.
Beta testing tests the software in the real environment for its acceptance. For example, user’s test ATM software. Big bang testing is performed to make sure all modules are integrated and able to work as one whole system. An example of this testing is done on an online banking website. Black box testing has test cases or conditions which are based on specifications of the requirements. For example, it can be done on banking websites. Application based testing tests web applications on different systems, browsers for functionalities, usability, interfaces, performance, security, etc. Amazon shopping website will be tested on different browsers.
Write the examples of the scenarios/ software for each of above different types of testing.
Beta Testing: The Apple brand sometimes allows a preview of IOS features as part of its Beta program. They enable customers to use it and provide feedback, and sometimes these applications do not make it to the release phase because of discoveries during the Beta testing phase.
Big bang Testing: Big bang approach is a time-consuming process of finding a module which has a defect itself as that would take time and once the defect is detected, fixing the same would cost high as the defect is detected at the later stage.
Black Box Testing: If you are using a calculator, then in the case of black box testing, you will be concerned if the output you are getting is correct or not. But in the case of white box testing, testers will check the internal working of the calculator and how this output was calculated.
Application based Testing: Application testing refers to testing any software application using scripts, tools, or test automation frameworks to identify errors. It helps teams release bug-free and robust software applications into the real world.
