Web Application Testing

Today, businesses worldwide face the challenge of establishing their web presence, not only in presenting company information but as the frontline interface between a business and its customers, as well as a business and its employees. With Web 2.0 technologies and Software as a Service (SaaS) business models, software is released online rather than in a shrink wrapped package. Users are supported online with step-by step video tutorials, avatar tutors and even online support. The increasing size and complexity combined with short development cycles for web-based applications make it difficult to keep up with user needs and quality often becomes an after-thought.

Ideally, every web application and web site should be tested to ensure they meet the reliability, security, and performance goals necessary to effectively support business requirements. Increasing functionality and frequent changes in requirements present many testing issues in the web application environment (see graphic below).
