-
Option to search within your software application or website.
The accuracy of the system
• No outdated or incorrect data like contact information/address should be present. Assessment 2 v1 Page | 5
-
Execute the developed test cases to check the quality of the software and verify if there exists any bug.
-
If there exists any bug, analyse it and provide a brief description of its root cause.
-
Fix the bug that has been detected.
c. Usability Testing: (10 Marks)
The objective of usability testing is to ensure end-user satisfaction by focusing on the following
key parameters of the system.
