The design, features, and responsiveness of the application will be improved significantly as we progress through the chapters.

Updated versions of the application will be provided as we progress through the chapters, and hence we don't have to write any code. Our job as testers is to test if the newly added features are working correctly.

The key combination `Command+V` might not work with consoles in MacOS. In that case you can right-click and paste the contents from the clipboard into the console.

Note

In this course, the user will get an introduction on how to perform manual testing on primarily web applications. The skills aquired in this course can be used in automation testing as well.

In this section, the user will get acquainted with the concepts of Software Testing & Quality Assurance. The importance of Software Testing & QA will be explained along with the different types of Software Testing, and some tips on when to use certain types of testing.

If you want to better understand Black Box and Gray Box Testing then this course is suitable for you.

In this section, we will look at Software Testing in a practical manner. This section is primarily focused on learning how to formally write test cases in textual form, and how to use a Test Management Application to create and execute test cases.

In this section, we will be learning about different types of testing that fall under the category of Functional Testing. We will learn how to perform those tests using a Test Management Application which we explored in the last section.

In this chapter, we will cover all the important types of software testing that fall under the category of Non-Functional Testing. Although most of the non-functional testing is Whitebox, we will still try to cover each type as much as relevant in this course.
