Load Testing without scripting

How many QA afraid of automation or want to do automation but don’t know scripting. I have never seen such a simplified Load Testing tool. LoadUI is most simplified tool for load testing I have ever seen. LoadUI is a open source Load Testing solution that is free and cross-platform. With a visual, drag-and-drop interface, it allows you to create, configure and redistribute your Load Tests interactively and in real-time. In a single test environment, loadUI provides complete test coverage and supports all the standard protocols and technologies. And it’s so powerful, it generates scalable, high-volume and real-world load from [...]

Generating Test Data

Before we start talking about Test Data Generation, we should know what Test Data is & why it is important before test execution. What is Test Data? Test data is any kind of input to application or any file which is loaded by application or any entries which can be read from Database Tables. Some data may be used in positive testing to verify that a given set of input to a given set of function generates an expected result. Some data may be used in negative testing to check the ability of application to handle exceptional or unexpected input. [...]

Manual Testing VS Automated Testing

This is the common question that when we should do manual testing & when we should do automation testing. Following guidelines may help you to find out the answer. It becomes clear that to evaluate the business benefit of manual testing versus automated testing requires careful consideration of: The effort required to produce written test cases for manual execution The effort required to produce test cases for test automation The probably number of times those test cases are executed for this test cycle The likelihood of reusing automated test cases for future test cycles In general terms it makes sense [...]

Using Truth Tables while creating Test Scenarios

As a QA you might have come across some complex testing scenarios where remembering and guessing scenarios will be of great risk.Truth tables helps lots in this situation. Truth table will help you find out all possible scenarios to be consider. A       B         C —————— YES   YES   YES YES   NO    YES NO    YES   YES NO    NO    YES YES   YES   NO YES   NO    NO NO    YES   NO NO    NO    NO Consider above example if we have 3 conditions to be tested against each other then according to Truth table there can be maximum 8 conditions [...]

SQL,XSS Barcode Injections

Many sites talks lots of SQL Injections and XSS Injections,even I explained this on TechChase articles. But think of a scenario where login is done by barcode and not username/password. So what kind of query can be passed to test SQL Injections and XSS Injections. Barcode Injections required for this testing. Actually same query which we use in normal way for testing XSS and SQL injections testing can be used here.Only we need to convert them into barcode formats. Following are few such queries converted to barcode which can be used for negative testing barcode login.

Free Guide:Cross-Site Scripting

Cross-Site Scripting (also known as XSS) is one of the most common application-layer web attacks. XSS vulnerabilities target scripts embedded in a page which are executed on the client-side (in the user’s web browser) rather than on the server-side. XSS in itself is a threat which is brought about by the internet security weaknesses of client-side scripting languages such as HTML and JavaScript. The concept of XSS is to manipulate client-side scripts of a web application to execute in the manner desired by the malicious user.

Free Guide:SQL Injection

SQL Injection is a type of web application security vulnerability in which an attacker is able to submit a database SQL command which is executed by a web application, exposing the back-end database. SQL Injection attacks can occur when a web application utilizes user-supplied data without proper validation or encoding as part of a command or query. The specially crafted user data tricks the application into executing unintended commands or changing data.

Free Guide:Cross-Site Request Forgery Guide

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is a malicious attack that tricks the user’s Web browser to perform undesired actions so that they appear as if an authorized user is performing those actions. For example, if an attacker is able to modify the content viewed by user’s browser, perhaps with a hostile Web site, when the user is checking an online bank account, the attacker can change the user’s transaction password to control the user’s actions and transfer funds to the attacker’s account.
