What is Software Testing?

Software Testing can be defines as under:- 

Testing involves operation of a system or application under controlled conditions and evaluating the results (eg, if the user is in interface A of the application while using hardware B, and does C, then D should happen). The controlled conditions should include both normal and abnormal conditions. Testing should intentionally attempt to make things go wrong to determine if things happen when they shouldnt or things dont happen when they should. It is oriented to detection. (See the Bookstore sections Software Testing category for a list of useful books on Software Testing.)
Organizations vary considerably in how they assign responsibility for QA and testing. Sometimes theyre the combined responsibility of one group or individual. Also common are project teams that include a mix of testers and developers who work closely together, with overall QA processes monitored by project managers. It will depend on what best fits an organizations size and business structure.
