Software Analysis and Testing

Software Static and Dynamic Analysis

Static analysis checks the software without running it (like checking spelling), while dynamic analysis checks

while the program runs (like testing how it works).

Code Inspections

A group checks the code to find mistakes before running it. It's like proofreading an essay.

Software Testing Fundamentals

Testing is checking if the software works properly and meets user needs.

Software Test Process

It includes planning, creating test cases, running them, and checking the results.

Testing Levels

Testing is done at different stages: Unit (small parts), Integration (combined parts), System (whole app), and

Acceptance (by user).

Test Criteria

These are rules to decide if a test passed or failed.


Software Analysis and Testing

Test Case Design

Creating inputs and steps to check if the software behaves as expected.

Test Oracles

They tell us what the correct output should be so we can compare it with actual output.

Test Techniques

Different ways to test like using input/output (Black-Box) or looking at code (White-Box).

Black-Box Testing

Testing the software from outside, without knowing how it works inside.

White-Box Unit Testing

Testing the code by knowing how it works inside. Usually done by developers.

Unit Testing Frameworks

Tools that help test individual parts of code like JUnit (Java), PyTest (Python).

Integration Testing
Software Analysis and Testing

Checking if different parts of the software work together properly.

System Testing and Other Specialized Testing

Testing the whole system. Specialized tests include performance, security, usability etc.

Test Plan

A document that explains what to test, how, when, and who will do it.

Test Metrics

Numbers that help measure test effectiveness like number of bugs found.

Testing Tools

Software like Selenium, JUnit, etc. that help in testing automatically or manually.

Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

OO analysis focuses on objects (real-world things) and how they interact. Design organizes these into

software structure.

Comparison with Structured Software Engineering


Software Analysis and Testing

Structured engineering focuses on functions and processes. OO focuses on objects and data. OO is more

flexible and reusable.
