Website Testing

There are two options for such testing:

• In manual testing, a tester or team of testers checks website functionality according to a checklist. This approach gives good results but takes a lot of time.
• The second method of automated testing is performed using special tests. Developers who automate repetitive manual operations are involved in writing these codes. As a result, testing is much faster than manual testing.

Experts who test the website manually check functionality, usability, performance. Security, interface and compatibility are also checked according to a checklist.

Links, buttons, databases and other functional components are checked for operation.

At this stage, the quality of interaction between the resource and the user is checked. When errors are discovered, they are fixed and removed. Navigation, information on pages and general appearance are also checked. Work is performed taking into account user satisfaction.

This stage includes checking correct operation with the server. Compatibility with software, databases and web applications is checked.

The resource is checked for cross-browser and cross-platform, i.e., compatibility with popular browsers and operating systems. Adaptability or opening on devices with different resolutions is also checked. If there is a print function on the page, it is tested.

Load and stress tests allow evaluating performance. The first checks the website with a large number of requests to one page. In stress testing, the load increases gradually to record system failure. Recovery time is also measured.

The purpose of security testing is to identify vulnerabilities on the website. Problems identified are fixed immediately. At this stage, password cracking risk is assessed, network scanning is performed, logs are checked, viral activity is identified, vulnerabilities are scanned. Various tools are used to check integrity.
