My Journey of Testing, Learning & Growing!

Lesson Learned from Software Testing: Many of us know, UX stands for User Experience and UI stands for User Interface. Lets see an example: In most of the websites we see a search engine. Now, without entering any keywords in the search box and click on Search Button. We don't see "No Error/Warning message". We feel that is a UI bug. But, it has been worked as designed - to "re-enter and click on search button". Hence, the issue may be rejected as it is not UI Bug. And a tester raises an Issue - There should be warning message " Enter a Search Keyword ". It is a UX Bug.

Recently, I was reading about responsive web design and how to test. It was a new topic, as usual i started learning researching on it for two days. Then i tried taking examples of live websites which are responsive design. Then i saw a new thing, which i dint see ever before. While web pages are having simple user interfaces with rise of new technologies and standards i saw a customized option. The user can avoid interface elements if without a clear meaning. People avoid and often ignore things they cannot understand - that's basic human nature. Google Example: If you are using www.google.com. Previously, there used to be a top menus for clear navigation of using Google services. Now, after the latest update, they simplified  the menu options with an icon. Most of the people who are not a technology guys, miss out notifying the icon and its support of  services.
