The Department of Information Technology had organized a webinar Software Testing Tools on 26th June, 2020.
Date
Speaker
Platform26th June, 2020
Mr. Premchandra Vishwakarma (Corporate Trainer)
Google MeetExpert Mr. Premchandra Vishwakarma discussed various aspects of software testing with current industry requirements in order to mitigate the gaps of academics and industry. Sir focused on following part of software testing. Software testing tools are required for the betterment of the application or software. That’s why we have so many tools available in the market where some are open-source and paid tools. The significant difference between open-source and the paid tool is that the open-source tools have limited features, whereas paid tools or commercial tools have no limitation for the features. The selection of tools depends on the user’s requirements, whether it is paid or free. The software testing tools can be categorized, depending on the licensing (paid or commercial, open-source), technology usage, type of testing, and so on. With the help of testing tools, we can improve our software performance, deliver a high-quality product, and reduce the duration of testing, which is spent on manual efforts. The software testing tools can be divided into the following:
- Test management tool
- Bug tracking tool
- Automated testing tool
- Performance testing tool
- Cross-browser testing tool
- Integration testing tool
- Unit testing tool
- Mobile/android testing tool
- GUI testing tool
The session ended with a vote of thanks by Ms. Farheen Shaikh on behalf of IT department.
