AI Testing Talks – Negative Testing

On 22 December, we held an online lecture on Negative Testing, which was led by Julia Emelianova, PhD, Researcher at Exactpro.

In this session, Julia gave an overview of the characteristics of negative testing and its scenarios, and discussed how negative testing can help identify the defects that can potentially result in major failures or outages, data corruption or security violations, while also improving the quality and stability of software applications. Julia also reviewed the benefits and disadvantages of negative testing.

    Testing is a type of software testing used to check software applications for unexpected input data and conditions, that might range from wrong data type to a strong hacking attack. The purpose of negative testing is to prevent software systems from crashing due to negative inputs and improve the quality and stability, to ensure the software is built in such a way that it will not crash or perform abnormally in negative scenarios. When performing negative testing, exceptions and appropriate errors are expected. This shows that the application is able to handle improper user behaviour. During negative testing, users input values that do not work in the system to test its ability to handle incorrect values or system failure. https://www.guru99.com/negative-testing.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_testing https://www.mstsolutions.com/technical/why-testing-process-needs-negative-testing/ https://www.javatpoint.com/negative-testing Synonyms for ”Negative Testing” • Error Path Testing • Failure Testing • Dirty Testing • Invalid Testing • Destructive Testing Invalid Input Error Negative Test System 1.

    is used to analyse the stability of an application or a software product against failed conditions, invalid input data or input values, outside the scope or limit; • is executed to break the system and achieve failure in the operation of a software product by feeding harmful data; • is performed to identify the defects which can result in major failures or outages, data corruption or security violations; • allows to evaluate the potential security breaches and special handling procedures; • is implemented to find the critical loopholes or bugs and weak areas resulting in failures; • usually, is performed by a test engineer. 2.

    Negative Testing Techniques Testers need: • to try every input which is invalid; • check the behaviour of the application against it. If an application crashes or shuts down without any warning or message, it needs: • to be fixed; • to give a proper message or warning. So that the user would know what not to do while using the application. Consider some of the smart techniques that you can utilise to perform negative testing using an AI chatbot as an example.

    Negative Testing Techniques 5.7. Fuzz Testing This procedure involves the input of: • invalid data, • random data, • semi random data which may cause unexpected failures, crashes, and issues. In this case, there are no preset expected results, unlike other negative test cases. It is simply an observation of what may potentially occur because of arbitrary inputs. Fuzzing looks only for crashes or some other undesirable behaviour, and millions of test cases might be executed before a crash. Moreover, many bugs such as logic errors do not crash the software system but instead produce incorrect output – a failure type that is much more difficult to detect.
