According to me system testing should take place once we are done with functional, integration, regression and all related testing. System testing should be done before UAT.

  System testing will take place in the folloing manner

  1. customer reqirments
  2. SRS
  3. HLD
  4. LLD
  5. Coding
  6. Unit testing
  7. integration testing
  8. Build after the bild it goes to system testing

in the Refined form of V-MODEL it takes in the manner

hello srinivasulu. u r telling wrong, end user place doing the BETA-testing only not System testing, Ok

system testing:- Overall requirements specification ,it's covers all combined part of the system.

once finished all the testing ( Not acceptence testing) we can start system testing,

Thanks

Hi srinivasulu garu,

MY opinion is your answer is wrong. your answer quite suitable  for Beta testing.

After all the modules are combined or integrated together, testing carried out on the total system is called system testing. best time is done after integration and regression testing and Before Acceptance testing.

Functional testing and performance testing are done during system testing.

more important thing the system has to be tested for its non-funcional requirements such as.

PERFORMANCE,ACCESSIBILITY,PORTABILITY.SECURITY,RELIABILITY,SAFETY etc.

Please correct me if i am wrong...

Hi Pavan,

It actually works differently in different situations.

According to me, i think you are a bit wrong, all of the information you have specified is correct except that System testing is done before regression testing.

Regression testing is actually testing the fixed builds mostly.

Moreover system testing is done at developer place after all the development is done. So, when testing the same, whatever the errors are revealed, they would be fixed and regression testing would be carried on.

Let me know incase anyone needs any further information.

Hello all
I think system testing should begin soon we have enough programs or skeletons that are integrated. It ends when we have measured system capabilities and corrected enough of the problems and have a strong confidence that we are ready to run the user acceptance testing.

Hi Guys

I don't know why you all just taking guesses and trying to be correct.

According to Testing Life Cycle Model System testing is started after the integration testing. From industrial point of view it is regression testing but no one call system testing. Unit or component testing is completed at developer site then integration testing is completed and then regression (system testing) and then finally Acceptance testing.

I advice you guys to read V-model and also system testing is performed against functional specification.

When we say System testing, I understand it is same as performance testing.
After Regression testing we do Performance testing using picking up the business processes that we will do performance testing on.
The performance testing candidates were picked for the following business processes:
• Mission critical
• Heavy throughput and
• Dynamic content
As soon as the business processes are picked, Then use the standard performance testing life cycle,
which follows the following:
• Gathering requirements
• Creating test plan
• Once the test environment is available
o Validate the test environment
o Start scripting

when all the modules are integrated and integration testing is done on 2 or more modules is over then we will go for system testing where will test the whole application, and system testing consists of Perforamance Testing, End to End Testing, Security Testing.

Plz correct me if i am wrong.

Schedule of each type of testing is specified in Test plan written by the test lead

In system testing we make sure that the system works well with the real environment with the real data.
So before starting system testing we must make sure that
1.Test data is ready
2.Test environment are ready.
3.testing tools are ready
