Functional Testing with Testinium
Testinium provides the essential functional testing techniques your product requires and hundreds of tailored solutions to make sure it is ready for the next step.
What is Functional Testing
Functional testing is a type of software testing that validates the software system against the functional requirements/specifications.
The purpose of Functional tests is to test each function of the software application, by providing appropriate input, verifying the output against the functional requirements.
Functional testing mainly involves black box testing and it is not concerned about the source code of the application. Functional testing checks:
- User Interface
- APIs
- Database
- Security
- Client/Server communication
- Other functionality of your application
The Prime Objective of Functional Testing is Checking the Functionalities
Mainline Functions
Testing the main functions of an application.
Accessibility
Checks the accessibility of the system for the user.
Basic Usability
It involves basic usability testing of the system. It checks whether a user can freely navigate through the screens without any difficulties.
Error Conditions
Usage of testing techniques to check for error conditions. It checks whether suitable error messages are displayed.
Step by Step Process of Functional Testing
Upload and configure your scripts with Loadium that is fully compatible with open source tools, JMeter, Selenium, Gatling and more. You can track response times with percentiles threads, throughput, error and logs – all in real time.
- Determine which functionality of the product needs to be tested. This can vary from testing main functions, messages, error conditions and/or product usability.
- Create input data for functionalities to be tested according to specified requirements.
- Determine acceptable output parameters according to specified requirements.
- Execute test cases.
- Compare actual output from the test with the predetermined output values. This reveals if the system is working as expected.

Entry Criteria
- The requirement specification document is defined and approved.
- Test cases have been prepared.
- Test data has been created.
- The environment for testing is ready, all the tools that are required are available and ready.
- Complete or partial Application is developed and unit tested and is ready for testing.

Exit Criteria
- Execution of all the functional test cases has been completed.
- No critical or minor, major bugs are open.
- Reported bugs have been acknowledged.
Why Automate Functional Tests?
Functional testing is the equivalent in that you’re checking every function of the application works as required before the product is released to the public. Uncovering bugs in testing is preferable before the product goes wide scale. Debugging is more manageable in a contained space after all.
Test automation lets software teams design, write, execute, and review tests for predefined actions. Common actions that do not change frequently can be automated, but (as we’ve seen from the testing pyramid) most experts recommend automating lower level tests in preference to actions taken through the user interface.
