Süsteemistestimise

Süsteemistestimine is the Estonian term for system testing. It is a level of software testing where a complete and integrated software system is tested. The purpose of system testing is to evaluate the system's compliance with its specified requirements. This type of testing is crucial for verifying that all the components of the software work together as expected.

System testing is performed after integration testing and before acceptance testing. It focuses on the functional and non-functional aspects of the entire system. Functional testing ensures that the system performs its intended functions correctly, while non-functional testing assesses attributes like performance, security, usability, and reliability.

The tests are typically conducted by an independent testing team, separate from the developers, to ensure objectivity. Test cases for system testing are designed based on the system requirements and specifications. This process aims to identify defects in the integrated system and ensure that it meets the business needs and user expectations.

Key objectives of system testing include validating the end-to-end functionality, verifying that the system adheres to all functional and non-functional requirements, and identifying any integration issues that might have been missed in earlier stages. It helps to build confidence in the overall quality and stability of the software product before it is released to the end-users.
