This lecture is a part of the online course on Software Testing for Complex Intelligent Systems and Autonomous Vehicles. The course lectures provide the theoretical basics of testing autonomous systems based on artificial intelligence.
The fourth lecture of the course entitled Foundations of Software Testing reviews the ‘absence-of-errors fallacy’ and other principles of software testing, as well as the types and levels of software testing. The lecture also provides a fuller picture of the understanding of test objectives and methodologies by different schools of thought within the software testing domain.
The document discusses software testing strategies. It covers topics like test strategy, test planning, test case design, test execution, verification and validation, unit testing, integration testing, object-oriented testing, validation testing, debugging, and consequences of bugs. The overall strategy is to begin with unit testing, then conduct integration testing by integrating modules, followed by system and validation testing to ensure requirements are met.
This document provides an overview of software testing. It discusses different types of testing like black-box testing and white-box testing. Black-box testing treats the software as a black box without any knowledge of internal implementation, while white-box testing has access to internal data structures and algorithms. The document also covers topics like functional vs non-functional testing, defects and failures, compatibility, and the roles of different teams involved in software testing.
Back to the basics principles for constructing quality softwareRick Spiewak
Rick Spiewak presented at the 2012 Better Software Conference East on applying basic principles of quality management to software development. He discussed defining quality as meeting requirements rather than exceeding expectations. Spiewak advocated fixing problems early in the development process and identifying and addressing the root causes of defects. He argued for establishing industry standards and best practices for software development similar to building codes for construction. Following the examples set by pioneers in software quality can help improve products and lower costs by requiring the use of best practices.
The document discusses performance testing and optimization for web and mobile applications. It emphasizes the importance of integrating performance testing into the development process through continuous performance integration. This includes performing load tests with each release to identify issues, monitoring real user behavior and performance in production, and using performance data to iteratively improve applications. The document also outlines best practices like keeping testing environments similar to production, understanding user scenarios, and investing in performance monitoring and research.

Testing Approach
Execution of this project applied the box approach. This is a hybrid method combing the two traditional approaches. White-box and black-box testing are two types of software testing methods. These two methodologies are applied in the description of tester's point of view when creating test cases. Grey-box testing is a hybrid approach to software testing methodology that can be used. The above "arbitrary distinction" among black- and white-box testing has faded somewhat as the concept of grey-box testing—which develops tests from specific design elements—has gained traction.
White-box testing verifies a program's internal structures or workings rather than the functionality that is visible to the end user. In white-box testing, test cases are created using an internal perspective of the system (the source code) and programming skills. The tester selects inputs in order to exercise code paths and determine appropriate outputs. It includes API testing, code coverage, fault injection among others.

Analysis and Design of Algorithms (ADA): An In-depth Exploration
Introduction:
The field of computer science is heavily reliant on algorithms to solve complex problems efficiently. The analysis and design of algorithms (ADA) is a fundamental area of study that focuses on understanding and creating efficient algorithms. This comprehensive overview will delve into the various aspects of ADA, including its importance, key concepts, techniques, and applications.
Importance of ADA:
Efficient algorithms play a critical role in various domains, including software development, data analysis, artificial intelligence, and optimization. ADA provides the tools and techniques necessary to design algorithms that are both correct and efficient. By analyzing the performance characteristics of algorithms, ADA enables computer scientists and engineers to develop solutions that save time, resources, and computational power.
Key Concepts in ADA:
Correctness: ADA emphasizes the importance of designing algorithms that produce correct outputs for all possible inputs. Techniques like mathematical proofs and induction are used to establish the correctness of algorithms.
Complexity Analysis: ADA seeks to analyze the efficiency of algorithms by examining their time and space complexity. Time complexity measures the amount of time required by an algorithm to execute, while space complexity measures the amount of memory consumed.
Asymptotic Notations: ADA employs asymptotic notations, such as Big O, Omega, and Theta, to express the growth rates of functions and classify the efficiency of algorithms. These notations allow for a concise comparison of algorithmic performance.
Algorithm Design Paradigms: ADA explores various design paradigms, including divide and conquer, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and backtracking. Each paradigm offers a systematic approach to solving problems efficiently.
Techniques in ADA:
Divide and Conquer: This technique involves breaking down a problem into smaller subproblems, solving them independently, and combining the solutions to obtain the final result. Well-known algorithms like Merge Sort and Quick Sort utilize the divide and conquer approach.
Dynamic Programming: Dynamic programming breaks down a complex problem into a series of overlapping subproblems and solves them in a bottom-up manner. This technique optimizes efficiency by storing and reusing intermediate results. The Fibonacci sequence calculation is a classic example of dynamic programming.
Greedy Algorithms: Greedy algorithms make locally optimal choices at each step, with the hope of achieving a global optimal solution. These algorithms are efficient but may not always yield the best overall solution. The Huffman coding algorithm for data compression is a widely used example of a greedy algorithm.
Backtracking: Backtracking involves searching for a solution to a problem by incrementally building a solution and undoing the choices that lead to dead-ends.

The document discusses principles of software testing and phases of a software project. It covers the fundamentals of testing including principles like finding defects before customers and that exhaustive testing is not possible. It outlines typical phases of a software project like requirements gathering, planning, design, development, testing, and deployment. It also discusses quality assurance versus quality control. White box testing techniques like static testing and structural testing are explained.
Cross-browser test automation continues to be a huge challenge. Test flakiness and code maintenance — together with the complexity of automating advanced scenarios in shrunken timelines — has created a need for next-gen test automation.
And that’s where codeless testing can help.
Powered by machine-learning and AI, codeless testing is best positioned to support test automation challenges and compliment code-based test scripts. Join Eran Kinsbruner, Chief Evangelist and author at Perfecto, along with Tzvika Shahaf, AVP Sales Engineering, as they take codeless test automation to the next level.
In this webinar, you will learn how to create a robust codeless Selenium test script that can run in parallel against multiple browser permutations from within continuous integration (Jenkins, TeamCity, e.g.) environments.
In this live webinar, Eran and Tzvika will cover the following:
• The key benefits of codeless test automation and the challenges it solves.
• How to configure codeless testing to run from within a scheduler or leading CI servers.
• How to visualize parallel codeless testing via a CI dashboard.
• How to get a single view of code-based and codeless in a single report.
This document provides an overview of software design engineering and testing. It defines key terms like software testing, test types, test methods, test levels, and the differences between functional and non-functional testing. It describes the role of a tester in preparing test plans and cases, executing tests, and documenting defects. The document also outlines different testing approaches, levels, and types including unit, integration, system, acceptance, alpha, and beta testing.
Software testing is a vital process without which no software release can occur, it makes the software usable. Software testing offers opportunities constantly to be exposed with new development methods, new platform technologies, new product innovations.

Exactpro FinTech Webinar - Global Exchanges Test OraclesIosif Itkin
The document discusses test oracles, which are mechanisms for determining whether a test has passed or failed. It describes how oracles work by comparing the actual output of a system under test to the expected output determined by the oracle. Several types of oracles are discussed, including hand-crafted oracles, specification-based oracles, and independent implementation oracles. The document emphasizes that all oracles are partial, as it is impossible to create a perfect oracle that evaluates all possible outputs of a system.

Complexity Analysis: ADA seeks to analyze the efficiency of algorithms by examining their time and space complexity. Time complexity measures the amount of time required by an algorithm to execute, while space complexity measures the amount of memory consumed.
Asymptotic Notations: ADA employs asymptotic notations, such as Big O, Omega, and Theta, to express the growth rates of functions and classify the efficiency of algorithms. These notations allow for a concise comparison of algorithmic performance.
Algorithm Design Paradigms: ADA explores various design paradigms, including divide and conquer, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and backtracking. Each paradigm offers a systematic approach to solving problems efficiently.
Techniques in ADA:
Divide and Conquer: This technique involves breaking down a problem into smaller subproblems, solving them independently, and combining the solutions to obtain the final result. Well-known algorithms like Merge Sort and Quick Sort utilize the divide and conquer approach.
Dynamic Programming: Dynamic programming breaks down a complex problem into a series of overlapping subproblems and solves them in a bottom-up manner. This technique optimizes efficiency by storing and reusing intermediate results. The Fibonacci sequence calculation is a classic example of dynamic programming.
Greedy Algorithms: Greedy algorithms make locally optimal choices at each step, with the hope of achieving a global optimal solution. These algorithms are efficient but may not always yield the best overall solution. The Huffman coding algorithm for data compression is a widely used example of a greedy algorithm.
Backtracking: Backtracking involves searching for a solution to a problem by incrementally building a solution and undoing the choices that lead to dead-ends.
This document is the preface to the second version of the "Practical Software Testing - E-Book" by http://www.SoftwareTestingHelp.com. It thanks readers for their positive feedback on the first edition and the author's family for their support. It notes there have been significant changes in software testing and hopes readers will find this updated version useful.
The document discusses principles of software testing and phases of a software project. It covers the fundamentals of testing including principles like finding defects before customers and that exhaustive testing is not possible. It outlines typical phases of a software project like requirements gathering, planning, design, development, testing, and deployment. It also discusses quality assurance versus quality control. White box testing techniques like static testing and structural testing are explained.
Cross-browser test automation continues to be a huge challenge. Test flakiness and code maintenance — together with the complexity of automating advanced scenarios in shrunken timelines — has created a need for next-gen test automation.
And that’s where codeless testing can help.
Powered by machine-learning and AI, codeless testing is best positioned to support test automation challenges and compliment code-based test scripts. Join Eran Kinsbruner, Chief Evangelist and author at Perfecto, along with Tzvika Shahaf, AVP Sales Engineering, as they take codeless test automation to the next level.
In this webinar, you will learn how to create a robust codeless Selenium test script that can run in parallel against multiple browser permutations from within continuous integration (Jenkins, TeamCity, e.g.) environments.
In this live webinar, Eran and Tzvika will cover the following:
• The key benefits of codeless test automation and the challenges it solves.
• How to configure codeless testing to run from within a scheduler or leading CI servers.
• How to visualize parallel codeless testing via a CI dashboard.
• How to get a single view of code-based and codeless in a single report.
This document provides an overview of software design engineering and testing. It defines key terms like software testing, test types, test methods, test levels, and the differences between functional and non-functional testing. It describes the role of a tester in preparing test plans and cases, executing tests, and documenting defects. The document also outlines different testing approaches, levels, and types including unit, integration, system, acceptance, alpha, and beta testing.
Software testing is a vital process without which no software release can occur, it makes the software usable. Software testing offers opportunities constantly to be exposed with new development methods, new platform technologies, new product innovations.

The document discusses test oracles, which are mechanisms for determining whether a test has passed or failed. It describes how oracles work by comparing the actual output of a system under test to the expected output determined by the oracle. Several types of oracles are discussed, including hand-crafted oracles, specification-based oracles, and independent implementation oracles. The document emphasizes that all oracles are partial, as it is impossible to create a perfect oracle that evaluates all possible outputs of a system.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Context Driven Testing
The Seven Basic Principles of the
Context-Driven School
1. The value of any practice depends on its context.
2. There are good practices in context, but there are no best practices.
3. People, working together, are the most important part of any project’s
context.
4. Projects unfold over time in ways that are often not predictable.
5. The product is a solution. If the problem isn’t solved, the product doesn’t
work.
6. Good software testing is a challenging intellectual process.
7. Only through judgment and skill, exercised cooperatively throughout the
entire project, are we able to do the right things at the right times to
effectively test our products.

Test Objectives
● To prevent defects by evaluate work products such as requirements,
user stories, design, and code
● To verify whether all specified requirements have been fulfilled
● To check whether the test object is complete and validate if it works as
the users and other stakeholders expect
● To build confidence in the level of quality of the test object
● To find defects and failures thus reduce the level of risk of inadequate
software quality
● To provide sufficient information to stakeholders to allow them to
make informed decisions, especially regarding the level of quality of
the test object

Good Testing
● Ownership – taking care of your company. Treat others the way you
would like to be treated. Take responsibility for company's needs.
Remember: responsibility is power. It is not granted. It is taken. Extreme
ownership is the way to lead and win.
● Deep Impact – exitus acta probat. The outcome justifies the effort. Make
sure that your work results in a valuable contribution. If you want to go
fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. Involve others to achieve
scalability and increase the impact of our work.
● Hard Work – no pain, no gain. Sometimes putting in long hours does not
help achieve any result. We do not measure time spent in the office.
Having said that, we've never observed extraordinary results without hard
work and deliberate effort.

● Learning – software testing is relentless learning. Change is the end
result of all true learning. The beautiful thing about learning is that
nobody can take it away from you. The Mistakes and problems are
inevitable. However, it is unacceptable not to learn from them. The
best way to learn something is to teach it.
● Agility – the only constant is change. We embrace the values
reflected in the Manifesto for Agile Software Development. Agility
allows us to turn learning into action and action into change. From its
inception, Exactpro has been able to adapt to change. It is important
to keep this ability as we scale up our business.
● Communication – the medium is the message. A relationship is
based on communication. We need to make sure others understand
us and we understand them.
● Objectivity – you have nothing to fear from knowing the truth. It is at
the core of our business. Our main service is to build software to test
software and provide objective information about it to our clients.
Our business benefits from openness. Everyone in our company has
the right to understand what makes sense, and no one has the right
to hold a critical opinion without speaking up.
