Compatibility is the ability to live and work together without difference. Compatible software applications also function in the same settings. For example, if the Google.com site is compatible, it must be open in all browsers and the operating system.
What is the software compatibility test?
Compatibility is non-functional testing to ensure customer satisfaction. This is to determine whether your application or software products are quite proficient to run in the browser, database, hardware, operating systems, cellular devices, and networks.
This application can also affect various versions, resolution, speed and internet configuration etc. Therefore it is important to test the application in all possible ways to reduce failure and overcome the shame of the boy. As a non-functional test, compatibility testing is to support that applications run well in various browsers, versions, OS, and networks successfully.
Compatibility tests must always appear in the real environment instead of the virtual environment.
Application compatibility test with a browser and different operating system to guarantee 100% coverage.
Type of software compatibility testing
Browser compatibility testing
Hardware
Network
Cellular device
Operating system
Version
This is very popular in compatibility testing. This is to check the compatibility of software applications in different browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and Opera, etc.
Hardware
This is to check application compatibility/software with different hardware configurations.
Network
It's to check applications on different networks such as 3G, WiFi, etc.
Cellular device
It is to check whether this application is compatible with cellular devices and platforms such as Android, iOS, Windows, etc.
Operating system
It is to check whether this application is compatible with different operating systems such as Windows, Linux, Mac, etc.
Software Compatibility Testing 3
Version
It is important to test software applications in various software versions. There are two types of inspection versions.
Testing of backward compatibility - Application testing or software in the old version or earlier. It is also known as compatible down.
Testing for continuing compatibility applications or software in new or upcoming versions. It is also known as a compatible forward
Why do we do compatibility testing?
Compatibility testing is checking the application that functions in the same way for all platforms.
Usually, the DEV team and testing team test applications on one platform. But applications that were once released in production, customers can test our products on different platforms and they can find bugs in applications that are not feasible in terms of quality.
To reduce such problems and do not disturb your customers, it is important to test the application on all platforms.
