Abstract
With expanding convolution of recent software, rapidly growing pressure made the quality standards better and took them to new and reform heights. Testing of software is an inescapable portion of software testing life cycle, and also thinking of its criticality during the pre-post process of development makes it a problem that must be dealt with improved and well-organized methodologies/techniques. A lot of studies have been conducted in order to enhance the performance of software. The crucial information of every software needs to be checked rigorously. Various testing techniques are present to carry out activities while testing. Testing is performed to make sure that the outcome will be successful. This work targets to review and analyze the already available and enhanced testing techniques for the improved and good quality product. Some recent research studies have been summed up in this work as software testing is acquiring more significance these days.
