Testing Web Based Software

This case study discusses the complex issues that can be encountered while testing modern web based applications. The study also looks at the changing requirements of software development as more and more applications move from the traditional form based environment to a web based environment.

This radical change not only affects programming requirements but also testing and acceptance requirements. Software testing has been around since the early days of computer software but only very recently has its importance been truly recognised in many software houses. This paper will also discuss the rise in importance of the software tester.
