Globalize USA date March 2011 Copy edit date March 2011 Employment testing is the practice of administering written, oral or other Test student assessment tests as a means of determining the suitability or desirability of a job applicant. The premise is that if scores on a test correlate with job performance , then it is economically useful for the employer to select employees based on scores from that test. Legal context United States The United States Supreme Court has decided several cases that have clarified the place of employment testing in the context of discrimination law. In particular, these cases have addressed the discriminatory use of tests when promoting employees by requiring tests beyond the education required for the job. A central finding in Griggs v. Duke Power Company was that the employer must demonstrate or be prepared to demonstrate that its selection process is job related . ref Griggs v. Duke Power Co. 401 U.S. 424 1971 ref Employers considering the use of employment tests, particularly knowledge and aptitude based tests, should perform due diligence to assure that questions are reasonably related to the job advice from counsel may be sensible.

Dynamic testing or dynamic analysis is a term used in software engineering to describe the testing of the dynamic behavior of code. That is, dynamic analysis refers to the examination of the physical response from the system to variables that are not constant and change with time. In dynamic testing the software must actually be compiled and run Actually Dynamic Testing involves working with the software, giving input values and checking if the output is as expected. These are the Validation activities. Unit Tests, Integration Tests, System Tests and Acceptance Tests are few of the Dynamic Testing methodologies. Dynamic testing means testing based on specific test cases by execution of the test object or running programs. Dynamic testing is used to test software through executing it. This is in contrast to Static testing .

Static testing is a form of software testing where the software isn t actually used. This is in contrast to dynamic testing . It is generally not detailed testing, but checks mainly for the sanity of the code, algorithm, or document. It is primarily syntax checking of the code and or manually reviewing the code or document to find errors. This type of testing can be used by the developer who wrote the code, in isolation. Code review s, software inspection inspection s and walkthrough s are also used. From the black box testing point of view, static testing involves reviewing requirement s and specification standards specification s. This is done with an eye toward completeness or appropriateness for the task at hand. This is the verification portion of Verification and Validation . Even static testing can be automated. A static testing test suite consists of programs to be analyzed by an interpreter or a compiler that asserts the programs syntactic validity. software bug Bugs discovered at this stage of development are less expensive to fix than later in the Software development process development cycle .

portal Software Testing Pair testing is a software development technique in which two team members work together at one keyboard to test the software application . One does the testing and the other analyzes or reviews the testing. This can be done between one software testing tester and software developer developer or business analyst or between two testers with both participants taking turns at driving the keyboard. Description This can be more related to pair programming and exploratory testing of agile software development where two team members are sitting together to test the software application . This will help both the members to learn more about the application. This will narrow down the root cause of the problem while continuous testing. Developer can find out which portion of the source code is affected by the bug. This track can help to make the solid test cases and narrowing the problem for the next time. Benefits and drawbacks The developer can learn more about the software application by exploring with the Software testing tester . The Software testing tester can learn more about the software application by exploring with the developer. Less participation is required for testing and for important bugs root cause can be analyzed very easily. The tester can very easily test the initial bug fixing status with the developer. This will make the developer to come up with great testing scenarios by their own This can not be applicable to scripted testing where all the test cases are already written and one has to run the scripts.

Recovery testing is the forced failure of the software in a variety of ways to verify that recovery is properly performed. Recovery testing should not be confused with reliability testing , which tries to discover the specific point at which failure occurs.Recovery testing is basically done in order to check how fast and better the application can recover against any type of crash or hardware failure etc. Type or extent of recovery is specified in the requirement specifications. It is basically testing how well a system recovers from crashes, hardware failures, or other catastrophic problems Examples of recovery testing While an application is running, suddenly restart the computer, and afterwards check the validness of the application s data integrity. While an application is receiving data from a computer network network , unplug the connecting cable. After some time, plug the cable back in and analyze the application s ability to continue receiving data from the point at which the network connection disappeared.

Agile testing is a software testing practice that follows the principles of agile software development . Agile testing does not emphasize testing procedures and focuses on ongoing testing against newly developed code until quality software from an end customer s perspective results. Agile testing is built upon the philosophy that testers need to adapt to rapid deployment cycles and changes in testing patterns. Overview Agile testing involves testing from the customer perspective as early as possible, testing early and often as code becomes available and stable enough, since working increments of the software are released often in agile software development. This is commonly done by using automated acceptance testing to minimize the amount of manual labor.

Context date October 2009 notability date March 2011 In computer science , a predictive state representation PSR is a dynamical system representation that keeps track of the state of the system using predictions of future observations. A PSR s state is grounded directly to statistics over observable quantities. This is in contrast to other models of dynamical systems, such as partially observable Markov decision process es POMDPs where the state of the system is represented as a probability distribution over unobserved nominal states.
