Web Application Testing Checklist

ByNav

Here is a checklist of items that you may want to consider when testing a web application:

  1. Functional testing
  • Verify that the application is working as intended and producing the expected results
  • Test all features and functionality, including user interface, data entry and validation, and business logic
  • Test error handling and recovery
  • Test the application with invalid input to verify that it handles it correctly
  1. Performance testing
  • Verify that the application can handle the expected load and performance requirements
  • Test response time, resource usage, and other performance-related metrics
  • Test the application under different load conditions (e.g., low, medium, high)
  1. Compatibility testing
  • Verify that the application is compatible with different web browsers and operating systems
  • Test the application on different devices (e.g., desktop computers, tablets, smartphones)
  1. Security testing
  • Verify that the application is secure and protects sensitive data
  • Test for vulnerabilities such as SQL injection attacks and cross-site scripting
  • Test the application’s authentication and authorization mechanisms
  1. Usability testing
  • Verify that the application is easy to use and understand for the end user
  • Test the application with real users and gather feedback
  • Test the application’s navigation and usability on different devices

This checklist is just a starting point, and you may need to add or modify items depending on the specific needs of your project. The important thing is to thoroughly test the web application in order to identify and fix defects and ensure that it is of high quality.
