What to expect from functional testing

Functional testing ensures that a software application behaves as expected based on its requirements. It examines the system from a user's perspective, evaluating features and functions. For example, a functional test might involve testing a login process, checking if a web form submits data correctly, or verifying that a specific calculation within the application produces the correct result.

Right People Group's functional testing consultants are skilled at creating and executing test cases, documenting results, and working with developers to solve issues. They use both manual and automated testing methods to provide thorough coverage.

What makes good functional testing

Good functional testing is thorough, well-documented, and focuses on user experience. It aims to mimic real-world usage, identifying potential issues before they impact users. A good functional testing process should be:

• Comprehensive: Covering all aspects of the software's functionality.
• Well-Defined: Using clear and concise test cases.
• Repeatable: Allowing for tests to be rerun consistently.
• User-Centric: Focused on simulating real-world user scenarios.

We understand that every project is unique. Our consultants are experienced in working with different software development methods and can adapt their approach to fit with your existing workflow.

What is functional testing

Functional testing is a type of software testing that ensures a software application works as it should. It's like a quality check for your software, making sure it does what it's supposed to do based on its requirements.

Here's what functional testing involves:

• Checking Features: Testers make sure each feature of the software works correctly. For example, if it's a calculator app, they'll test if addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division all work as expected.
• Testing User Flows: Testers follow the steps a user would take within the application. This helps ensure that different actions within the software connect smoothly and logically.
• Verifying Data Input: Forms and other data entry points are tested to make sure the software handles information correctly. This includes testing for valid data, invalid data, and edge cases.

Functional testing can be done in two main ways:

• Manual Testing: This involves testers manually interacting with the software, just like a real user would.
• Automated Testing: Testers use scripts and tools to automate test cases, which speeds up the testing process and can catch more bugs.

The main goal of functional testing is to find and fix bugs before the software is released to users. This leads to a better user experience, as the software will be more stable and reliable.
