Test Levels–Test Types–Testing

In the last couple of posts I have covered Test Levels and Test Types. Now in this post I am covering the mapping of Test Levels, Test Types and associated Testing.

Remember, understanding the Test Levels, Test Types and relevant Testing performed under those Levels and Types plays a vital role in Test Planning, Test Estimation.
