Why must we test cookies?

Answer Posted / ooty

Cookies are temporary internet files, which is stored in
client machine...For instance in gmail you are entering
username and password, so here username treated as a
cookie, then it will send the cookie to all the pages which
you are going to visit, finally click logout button then
page will redirect to home or defalut page....Now the
problem is cookies should destroyed from the machine after
clicked the logout navigation or button, suppose the cookie
does not destroyed, then what will happen, user clicks the
BACK button from the browser without entering username and
password in the login window, page will redirect you to the
main page without authenticate....This is one of the use of
testing cookies.....

If any mistake in this answer pls correct it....

I know functional test cases are derived from frs and system design specs. But are test cases for performance, database, boundary, relational integrity and other types of tests other than functional tests created from frs and system design specs as well? When are these test cases created? Are they in the same test plans alongside functional test cases or is their a different test plan that includes these test cases?
