The Billion Dollar Industry Started by a Bug
The Billion Dollar Industry Started by a Bug
The story goes that when Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, a pioneering computer scientist, was working on the Harvard Mark II Computer, all work stopped for no apparent reason. Hunting through the Mark II, her fellow scientists discovered a moth stuck in a relay, whereupon she ad-libbed that they were "debugging" the system. The discovery of bugs of many varieties in brought into existence, the testing aspect of software and hardware. This is now a billion dollar industry, globally. By the way, the preserved remains of the moth are in the group's log book at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C., and a navy destroyer, The USS Hopper, was named after Hopper.
Destruction is the name of the game in functional testing
Testing is an investigatory testing phase, where the intention is to almost destroy, not only the design, but also the behavior and even the believed expectations of the customer. functional testing services will test up to and beyond the bounds defined in the software/hardware requirements specifications.
Functional Testing Methods
Functional testing refers to tests that verify a specific action or function of software code. The specifications are usually found in the code requirements documentation, although some development methodologies work from use cases or user stories. Functional tests tend to answer the question of "can the user do this" or "does this particular feature work".
