Static and Dynamic Testing

Understanding Static and Dynamic Testing

 static vs dynamic testing

Let us start learning Static and Dynamic Testing. Software developers can’t test everything. However, they can use combinatorial test design. Further, this is done to identify the minimum number of tests needed to get the coverage they want. Moreover, this design enables users to get greater test coverage with fewer tests. Whether they are looking for speed or test depth, they can use combinatorial test design methods to build structured variation into their test cases.
There are many approaches to software testing. Further, the reviews, walkthroughs, or inspections are considered as static testing. This testing can be (and unfortunately in practice often is) omitted. On the other hand, dynamic testing takes place when the program itself is used for the first time.

Whereas actually executing programmed code with a given set of test cases is referred to as dynamic testing. Dynamic testing may begin before the program is 100% complete in order to test particular sections of code (modules or discrete functions). Typical techniques for this are either using stubs/drivers or execution from a debugger environment.

For example, spreadsheet programs are, by their very nature, tested to a large extent interactively (“on the fly”), with results displayed immediately after each calculation or text manipulation.
