Software Testing

Software Testing is a crucial discipline in software engineering that ensures the quality, reliability, and performance of software systems. This course provides a comprehensive understanding of software testing principles, processes, and methodologies as outlined by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan. Students will learn both theoretical and practical aspects of testing — including test planning, test design, execution, debugging, and quality assurance. The course emphasizes different testing techniques such as black-box, white-box, and integration testing, along with automation tools and frameworks used in modern software development. By the end of the course, students will be able to design effective test cases, identify and manage software defects, and contribute to producing high-quality software systems aligned with industry standards.
