Brief introduction to web testing
Web testing is the name given to software testing that focuses on web applications,
and is one of the fastest growing areas of software testing. Complete web testing
of a system before going live is the primary step to get assured of an entire web
application's ability to work properly. It can help address such issues like readiness
of your web server for the traffic you are expecting and for the increasing number
of users, the ability to survive a massive spike in user traffic, your server hardware
sufficiency and so on.
Web testing includes many kinds of testing aspects, such as GUI testing, compatibility
testing, stress testing, functional testing, security testing and so on.
