Manual testing is known as a software testing process that executes test cases without the use of any tools. According to the end user’s point of view it executes the test cases manually. It checks the working condition of an application correctly and implements the complete software application effectively.
Although manual testing is required for the newly developed software. It checks the features of software working properly. It ensures that all are created and processed properly.
Manual testing keeps the software development error-free. There are various types to ensure error-free software development.
It is the technique of testing software development without seeing internal code structure. Hence the developers don't want to know about the internal code structure. It ensures if the software matches its specification and requirements given by users. Black box testing ensures the inputs and output application without the consideration of internal structure.
It is exactly opposite of black-box testing. To
perform manual testing internal structure, codebase knowledge is required, in
this type it defines code visibility for the manual testers.
White
box testing used to define the flow of input and output instead of focusing on
the functional needs of the application. It is used to improve the software
application design and usability that strengthens its security.

Exploratory testing
Exploratory
testing is a kind of Manual testing in which the testers don't want to create
test cases in an advanced way. It is used to create out-of-box test cases and
execute the test cases quickly.
The
testers have the freedom and responsibility to introduce the continuous design
and execution of testion features.
It
helps the testers to escape from the predefined test cases and provides
learning, investigation and discovery of the application in learning.
Difference between Manual andAutomation testing
Manual
testing requires human action while automation testing requires machines.
Manual testing is suitable for user interface and user experience.
Automation
testing is suitable for stable systems that promote lesser bugs, it is mostly
used for regression testing and performance testing. Testing tools like
selenium and Jmeter are commonly used.
● Accurate
● Provides human insight
● Adaptable
● Saves money
Cons
● It provides heavy resources
● It is not always suitable
● Potential for errors
● It is not reusable
How Manual testing is performed?
❖ It is necessary to understand
the project requirement, understand the behavior of software, and what should
be tested.
❖ Prepare test cases after the
understanding of project requirements and should implement the test case in
order to provide error-free software application.
❖ Report the bugs once the bugs
are identified, again execute failed test cases to verify they pass.
Why Manual Testing?
Manual
testing is based on human perspective, the usability and look,feel of the
application can be implemented by humans.
Manual
check consistently gives a more extensive point of view of the general
application. As the human mind will forever be in an exploratory structure,
rather than a coding system that executes similar advances each time. In this
way, it will give more extensive inclusion for the system validationAnother
situation where manual testing is required is the situation usability testing.
We perform usability testing to assess how
helpful, proficient, and easy to understand the item has ended up being for the
end clients. For this appraisal, we require the most elevated manual mediation
and can't depend on instruments to survey it for us. So to assess the item
according to the end-client perspective, we decide on manual testing.
