A Test Level refers to a specific stage in the testing process where particular types of tests are conducted. Each level focuses on different aspects of software quality.
Common Test Levels:
- Unit Testing: Testing individual components or functions for correctness.
- Integration Testing: Evaluating interactions between integrated components or systems.
- System Testing: Assessing the complete system’s compliance with specified requirements.
- Acceptance Testing: Validating the system against user needs and business requirements.
Understanding different test levels helps organisations structure their testing efforts effectively and ensures comprehensive coverage throughout the software development lifecycle.
