Non-functional testing
Non-functional testing is testing software for its non-functional requirements: the way a system operates, rather than specific behaviors of that system. This is in contrast to functional testing, which tests against functional requirements that describe the functions of a system and its components.
Non-functional testing includes:
- Accessibility testing
- Baseline testing
- Compliance testing
- Documentation testing
- Endurance testing or reliability testing
- Load testing
- Localization testing and Internationalization testing
- Performance testing
- Recovery testing
- Resilience testing
- Security testing
- Scalability testing
- Stress testing
- Usability testing
- Volume testing
