A software testing method to check the readiness of a system by verifying its attributes such as performance, usability, memory leaks, or robustness is known as non-functional testing. These attributes are not checked during a functional test. A simple example of such a test is to evaluate the number of people who can simultaneously log into the system.
The non-functional test at KRCMIC uses a well-organized method to pinpoint and develop suitable test cases and determine dates for executing the tests.
Non-functional testing has the below-mentioned advantages:
“Non-functional testing has as much importance as functional testing and plays a big role for user satisfaction with the software application.”
Our software testing laboratory is accredited which provides important non-functional testing services throughout changing verticals. The tests are taken on multiple platforms such as the desktop, cloud, mobile, and web. The smart testing method at KRCMIC is organized and based on well-proven business standards. Our non-functional testing of the software applications includes the following tests:
Based on the expected workload, this particular test examines the speed, resource usage, reliability, response time, and scalability of a software application. Performance testing is not done to detect functional issues but to remove performance blockages in the software or system. Following are the parameters that are checked during a performance test:
In performance testing, two systems are compared to find out the better performing system. It also identifies the part of the system or load that is the source of this poor performance.
A load test is used to examine the behavior of the system or software application, under the influence of a preset load. In this type of performance test, the system is inspected against real-time normal and peak load conditions to check its response.
The result of the test shows the number of simultaneous users the system can handle. Also, the information on the parameters such as network capacity, hardware, etc. is shared that determines the scale of the application to increase the number of users.
Stress testing is examining the system under stress i.e., exceeding its normal operational capacity up to the breaking point. In this type of testing, the results determine the stability of the system. Stress testing is more focused on the parameters like availability, robustness, and error handling while a heavy load is introduced, rather than the correct response of the system under normal conditions.
The goal of stress testing is to guarantee that the system does not function poorly or shut down in case of insufficient computational resources (e.g., disk space).
In usability testing, the application is used by representative users, and the service is evaluated by measuring the ease-to-use and user-friendliness of the software system. A set of decided target end-users perform certain simple activities on the application and all the activities are observed and recorded in detail. This is done to detect any usability issues, gather quantitative and qualitative data, and assess the user’s satisfaction with your application.
This type of performance testing is done to decide the compatibility and check the successful operation of the software application with multiple databases, operating systems, browsers, hardware, networks, and mobile devices. The factors that can influence the performance of a software application are different versions, internet speed, resolution, configuration, etc. Therefore, it is very important to check the software system with all corresponding components to reduce the chances of failure.
Compatibility testing is the non-functional testing technique that validates the successful processing of the application in different versions, networks, operating systems, and browsers.
It is an important testing term that involves various productive testing techniques to assess and gauge the non-functional characteristics of the system. The main goal is to assess the capability and usefulness of the application under changing and unknown conditions.
This software testing answers different software-related questions in one-go. These questions may be:
If the system has not undergone non-functional testing, one can never be sure regarding the system’s ability to support a mass of users. In the worst-case scenario, the application may crash, get stuck, or slow down. In the case of no non-functionality testing, the system’s security may be compromised, and an unknown unauthorized user can easily have access to the data entered by the application users. Therefore, non-functionality testing is crucial to ensure the security and reliability of the application.
Following are the non-functional testing requirements:
By utilizing user or technical stories, a non-functional requirement can be met. Capturing such requirements as a user story is the same as doing that for any other requirement. The only difference between the two stories is that the user story has visibility and calls for discussion.
For better understanding the core reasons for the test, a separate artifact is developed for the non-functional requirements. This also gives information about how the test can be performed in iterations.

I’ve cooperated with Michal on numerous projects, related to SEO incl. content creation, web development, UX/UI design, online graphics, and web analysis. Our projects were always delivered on time and with great quality. What I appreciate about working with Michal the most is his business drive, mentor-like approach, flexibility, and honesty. Michal won’t do pointless work for you, he will help you choose and execute the right approach, instead.
We hired Michal as a digital consultant when were creating a new company website. He helped us put together a basic idea of how the new site should work in term of UX, prepared very detailed wireframes, provided the content and coordinated our external teams. I appreciate his professional approach, his great communication skills and proactivity. After the successful website launch, we contacted Michal several times and this resulted in a long-term cooperation.
Michal is extremely hardworking and purposeful. Somehow I suspect that it has not happened yet that he did not achieve what he intended. If you need to realize something, then contact Michal. He is your Man.
Michal is very hardworking manager with an excellent instinct for business. I got to know him as a courageous and decisive person and it does make a lot of fun to work and to develop new ideas and business opportunities with him . Besides that he is a cool guy to have a beer with...
Having worked with Michal for nearly two years, I can say he is an empathetic mentor, an indispensable collaborator, a fluid manager, a supportive colleague, and funny guy. Michal does everything with a smile. It is a great pleasure working with him.
I had an opportunity to cooperate with Michal on several client's projects. Michal is a self organized, target driven and customer oriented individual with huge knowledge and experience with online marketing. I can only recommend Michal for any company.
After our introductory gathering, Michal and I decided to sit down together in person. During the initial months of administrating the joint-cooperation, I truly admired his perspective towards work ethics and aims. He is one of the most competent content marketing specialists. I am truly motivated by the leadership behavior he displays towards his team and his endeavors towards exploring better strategies for corrective measures.
I have worked with Michal since 2012 and have always had great results from him. He is a dependable, hard working individual. He understands the importance of his work and the impact it has on the business and knows what does and does not work. He is specialized in analytics field and extremely knowledgeable about the online space in every aspect. And you do not find many "SEO guys" who try to really care about the content not just about some rubbish magical metrics:)
