Database Testing
About Database Testing
The
database can be considered the heart of any software application, so
making sure that it is functioning correctly is essential. Database
testing is the process of checking that everything is in order with
regard to the database. This is done under a controlled testing
environment. The process is also known as back-end testing or data
testing.
Why is Database Testing important?
The
key focus of database testing is to make sure that the values and
information stored in the database are accurate. The database test will
then help to see if each query works as it should with regard to its
specifications.
Database
testing also helps to ease the complexity of calls to the backend. It
also works to make sure that no harmful or incorrect data is being
stored at the backend of the application.
