First thing testers are not responsible for fixing the bug they are only responsible for debugging the bug and prioritizing those bugs. These bugs are now reported in bug report template with the severity and priority of the bug. Tester assigns severity level to the defects depending upon their impact on other parts of application. Every bug has its severity and priority values assign by tester. If a defect does not allow you to go ahead and test the product, it is critical one so it has to be fixed as soon as possible. We have 5 levels as:

Critical

High

Medium

Low

Cosmetic

Time Estimation method for Testing Process:

Step 1 : count number of use cases (NUC) of system 

Step 2 : Set Avg. Time Test Cases(ATTC) as per test plan 

Step 3 : Estimate total number of test cases (NTC) 

Total number of test cases = Number of Use Cases X Avg. Test Cases per a use case 

Step 4 : Set Avg. Execution Time (AET) per a test case 

Step 5 : Calculate Total Execution Time (TET) 

TET = Total number of test cases * AET 

Step 6 : Calculate Test Case Creation Time (TCCT)

usually we will take 1.5 times of TET as TCCT

TCCT = 1.5 * TET

Step 7 : Time for Re-Test Case Execution (RTCE) this is for retesting

usually we take 0.5 times of TET

RTCE = 0.5 * TET

Step 8 : Set Report generation Time (RGT

usually we take 0.2 times of TET

RGT = 0.2 * TET

Step 9 : Set Test Environment Setup Time (TEST)

it also depends on test plan

Step 10 : Total Estimation time = TET + TCCT+ RTCE + RGT + TEST + some buffer.

Use Case: A use case is a description of the process which is performed by the end user for a particular task. Use case contains a sequence of step which is performed by the end user to complete a specific task or a step by step process that describe how the application and end user interact with each other. Use case is written by the user point of view.

Use case Testing: the use case testing uses this use case to evaluate the application. So that, the tester can examines all the functionalities of the application. Use case testing cover whole application, tester performs this testing in step by step process to complete one task

For web application we perform following time of test:

1. Functionality Testing.

2. Usability Testing.

3. Navigation Testing.

4. Configuration and Compatibility testing.

5. Reliability and Availability Testing.

6. Performance Testing.

7. Load and Stress Testing.

8. Security Testing

The benefits of Automation Testing are below:

- Test engineer productivity.

- Coverage of regression testing.

- Reusability of test cases.

- Consistency in testing.

- Test interval reduction

- Reduced software maintenance cost

- Increased test effectiveness

Monkey testing is a type of Black Box Testing used mostly at the Unit Level. In this tester enter the data in any format and check the software is not crashing. In this testing we use Smart monkey and Dumb monkey.

- Smart monkeys are used for load and stress testing, they will help in finding the bugs. They are very expensive to develop.

- Dumb monkey, they are important for basic testing. They help in finding those bugs which are having high severity. Dumb monkey are less expensive as compare to Smart monkeys.

Example: In phone number filed Symbols are entered.

EX:

- High Priority and Low Severity:

Company logo is not properly displayed on their website.

- High Priority and High Severity:

Suppose you are doing online shopping and filled payment information, but after submitting the form, you get a message like "Order has been cancelled."

- Low Priority and High Severity:

If we have a typical scenario in which the application get crashed, but that scenario exists rarely.

- Low Priority and Low Severity:

There is a mistake like "You have registered success" instead of successfully, success is written.

Priority: concern with application from the business point of view. It answers  How quickly we need to fix the bug? Or How soon the bug should get fixed?

Severity: concern with functionality of application. It deals with the impact of the bug on the application.
