Types of Testing

Here's an article that I read recently and liked enough to share.
(In case this article is no longer available, the types covered are listed below).

This author does an excellent job in covering most, if not all, different types of testing that exist.

Mobile Testing

One type of testing that I didn't see and expected to see is: Mobile Testing.

Calling out "Mobile Testing" specifically is useful considering our current industry of technology and how there are more users on mobile technology (like smartphones and tablets) than the traditional technology (like desktops or even some laptops).

Additional Types of Testing (not in article)

A few other types of testing important to call out are:

1. API Testing - which is actually listed in the referencing article under Integration Testing
2. IoT Testing - but this can be under Integration Testing
3. Virtual Reality Testing

Soon, I expect to see Artificial Intelligence Testing even though I currently have no idea what this entails.

Either way, this goes to show that the extent of testing in the tech industry will always evolve and expand calling for better testing tools and methods. Good luck!
