what is the difference b/w functional testing and system testing?..

Answer / intekhab

In functional testing we actually ensure that the
features/subsystem under test should behave as per the
users requirements irrespective of knowing how internally
it works and how it interacts with other entity.

In sytem testing we test both functionality/non
functionality of whole applications taking systems as a
whole which also ensures the expected behaviour w.r.t
user's requirements.

Answer / prasanna

From my point of view, system testing is broadly classified
into functional and non-func. testing. hence Functional
Testing is a part of System Testing.

In system testing, testers test the product typically like
the end-user.Every single Interface,module and even minute
details have to be tested in this System Testing.

Functional Testing aims at testing the various
functionalities of the product being tested.These
functionalities include load,volume,stress,
scalability,security,performance,etc.
