Testing is a crucial aspect of software development and various types of testing are performed at different stages of the development lifecycle to ensure the quality, reliability, and functionality of software systems. Here are some common types of testing:

๐Ÿ. ๐”๐ง๐ข๐ญ ๐“๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ : This involves testing individual units or components of the software in isolation. It ensures that each unit functions as intended. Developers typically write unit tests to validate the behavior of small code segments.

It involves retesting the entire application or specific areas to catch any unintended side effects.

๐Ÿ•. ๐‹๐จ๐š๐ ๐“๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ : Load testing checks how well the software performs under anticipated load conditions. It helps identify performance bottlenecks and determine if the application can handle the expected number of users.

๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‘. ๐€๐ฅ๐ฉ๐ก๐š ๐“๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ : Alpha testing is conducted by internal teams before the software is released to a larger audience. It aims to identify major issues and gather feedback for improvements.
