Report evaluating appropriate tools and methods to employ advanced software production
This document identifies the main software quality testing methods and measures that may
be in place during a specific software development project.
When developing any kind of software weather that would be a mobile application or
computer application one of the most important steps are software testing. Software that
isn't properly tested throughout the development process, can cost a lot of money, and be
unsafe to use for the users. A great example of this is Starbucks which was forced to close
about 60 percent of stores in the U.S and Canada due to software failure in its POS system.
At one point, the store served coffee for free as they were unable to process the transaction

I am developing a mobile application which will be used to calculate mortgage monthly
payments. For my mobile app application project I will be using software testing throughout
all the stages and I will also be using different testing methods, frameworks and other
testing tools which I described in this report.
Testing Methods
Software Testing is one of the
most important developing
processes.Software testing
comes at almost every stage of
the development, including
designing. In simple words,
software testing is the process of
reviewing and validating that a
software system or application
works well and does what it is designed/developed to do. It also helps to prevent future
errors, lowering development costs, and boosting performance.

Various types of software tests are designed with specific goals in mind.
Usually Testing is separated by three categories and those are :
● Functional Testing - functional testing is about testing the software for functionality
and it includes unit testing system and integration testing.
● Non-Functional Testing or Performance Testing is to test the application itself such as
loading time, performance checks, see how many users can use the application at
the same time and so on.
