It involves a series of activities, including Test planning, Test design, Test execution, and Test reporting. The goal of software testing is to identify and report defects or bugs in the software, and to ensure that the software is reliable, stable, and performs as expected. Software testing can be performed manually or automatically, using various Tools and Techniques, such as Black box testing, White box testing, and Gray box testing. It is an essential part of the Software development process, and is closely related to Quality assurance and Validation.
