Non-functional testing

Non-functional testing is the testing of a software application for its non-functional requirements. The names of many non-functional tests are often used interchangeably because of the overlap in scope between various non-functional requirements. The end result is not classified as "Pass" or "Fail". For example, software performance is a broad term that includes many specific requirements like reliability and scalability.
