Processo de teste de software: uma descrição com a perspectiva da qualidade de software

Abstract

This work search based on the suggestions of the bibliography of the area show that finding errors and faults into a program is the basic finality of SOFTWARE TESTING PROCESS, with a view to obtaining a quality software.. It is through these research techniques and purge of errors that can measure the quality of software. Testing is not to show that software works, but finding, in a predefined and judicious way, the largest possible number of bugs, before software arrives at the production environment. This should be set objectives of specific tests for each test project, bothWHITE BOX testing, which evaluates the internal behavior of the component, as the BLACK BOX, which evaluates the final run-level interface.. All of this process must be performed by a qualified team, in a suitable environment and with automation tools. Such processes must still be performed parallely to the project development. Thus, the process becomes safer and result in higher quality is more easily achieved.The purpose of this monograph, therefore, is to present general considerations on testing in the context of software quality and show the benefits of deploying the process of testing software in the enterprise Cinco Sistemas LTDA for achieving a higher level of software quality and the consequent increase in its reliability.
