Manual Testing
Manual Testing:
Manual testing plays very important role in software testing, when comes to manual testing , testers would think endusers point of view, but automation cannot achieve it .However automation saves time and cost but manual testers notice and fix the unpredicted issues .
Techniques:
Black box Testing :
To begin with black box testing mostly useed in manual testing techniques.It mainly allows the QA to focus on functionalities . This is best for testing features like forms , login pages . This helps in identifying functional issues in which end users may faces.
White box Testing:
Firstly white box testing focus on the flow of app, code , logics.Based on my knowledge it is mainly used for checking conditions ,iterations within the program .Further this apps more stable inadditon reduces the defects to make a defect free software product .

Grey box Testing :
From my perspective, It acts as the combination of blackbox and white box testing .It provides a good blance in between the functionality testing and internal system understanding ,It helps to identify the defectes which is missed by blackbox and white box testing
Boundary value analysis :
It is more useful as it is helps testers to focus on critical values without testing every possible input which saves time .It is mainly used when an application accepts numeric or the range based inputs .With the help of this testing we could easily point out whether the system accepts or rejects the valid or invalid inputs
Decision Table Testing:
From my perspective ,it is very helpful when an application has multiple conditions that affect the outcome .This testing groups all the possible input combinations and their results in a simple table which makes easier to find the missing scenarios . for instance the login system , the conditions could be valid username and password .
Future of manual testing in the agent of AI:
Manual testing will not affects in the future due to it cannot replaces the creativity of human thoughts ,it cannot replace the judgement. Ai only handles the tasks which repetitive furthermore helps to test faster .but in future manual testing and AI brings software more stable and maintains high quality control to save time and business reputation.
