Software Testing is a process of finding errors while executing a program so that we get a zero defect software. It is
aimed at evaluating the capability or usability of a program. Software testing is an important means of accessing quality of software.
Though a lot of advancements have been done in formal methods and verification techniques, still we need software to be fully tested
before it could be handled to the customer side. Thus there are a number of testing techniques and tools made to accomplish the task.
Software testing is an important area of research and a lot of development has been made in this field. In this paper, testing
techniques and tools have been described. Some typical latest researches have been summarized. Software testing is gaining more and
more importance in the future.

Quality is the main focus of any software engineering
project. Without measuring, we cannot be sure of the level
of quality in software. So the methods of measuring the
quality are software testing techniques. This paper relates
various types of testing technique that we can apply in
measuring various quality attributes. Software testing
research is the driving element of development and
application. In this era of new and higher demand of
software testing, it is important to constantly summarize
new achievements, fresh hotspots and propose different
ideas in order to promote the study on software testing
system engineering, to facilitate the rapid development on
software testing field and industry.
