ABSTRACT

Software quality assurance (SQA) is an essential procedure that must be carried out throughout the software development life cycle. The fundamental goal of QA is to guarantee that the program matches planned functionality, is bug-free and will run perfectly under various conditions. Testing is an essential part of the software development process since it is where we uncover flaws in the product or application. In the software business, testing is used to highlight where an application or program is weak. This article discusses software testing types and how to overcome testing issues, as well as how automation and manual testing may work together to create a method that works within resource limits. Explaining the QA perspective in SDLC methodologies with increased Agile and DevOps engagement in preserving software quality.
