1) Black-box Testing: Testing that verifies the item being tested when given the appropriate input provides the expected results.
2) Boundary-value testing: Testing of unusual or extreme situations that an item should be able to handle.
3) Class testing: The act of ensuring that a class and its instances (objects) perform as defined.
4) Class-integration testing: The act of ensuring that the classes, and their instances, form some software performs as defined.
5) Code review: A form of technical review in which the deliverable being reviewed is source code.
6) Component testing: The act of validating that a component works as defined.
7) Coverage testing: The act of ensuring that every line of code is exercised at least once.
8) Design review: A technical review in which a design model is inspected.
9) Inheritance-regression testing: The act of running the test cases of the super classes, both direct and indirect, on a given subclass.
10) Integration testing: Testing to verify several portions of software work together.
11) Method testing: Testing to verify a method (member function) performs as defined.
12) Model review: An inspection, ranging anywhere from a formal technical review to an informal walkthrough, by others who were not directly involved with the development of the model.
13) Path testing: The act of ensuring that all logic paths within your code are exercised at least once.
14) Prototype review: A process by which your users work through a collection of use cases, using a prototype as if it was the real system. The main goal is to test whether the design of the prototype meets their needs.
15) Prove it with code : The best way to determine if a model actually reflects what is needed, or what should be built, is to actually build software based on that model that show that the model works.
16) Regression testing: The acts of ensuring that previously tested behaviors still work as expected after changes have been made to an application.
17) Stress testing: The act of ensuring that the system performs as expected under high volumes of transactions, users, load, and so on.
18) Usage scenario testing: A testing technique in which one or more person(s) validate a model by acting through the logic of usage scenarios.
19) User interface testing: The testing of the user interface (UI) to ensure that it follows accepted UI standards and meets the requirements defined for it. Often referred to as graphical user interface (GUI) testing.
20) White-box testing: Testing to verify that specific lines of code work as defined. Also referred to as clear-box testing.
