What is backward compatibility testing?

Answer Posted / lakshmanaraj bg

Testing whether the system is compatible with other systems with which it should communicate.
Compatibility testing measures how well pages display on different clients.

For example: browsers, different browser version, different operating systems, and different machines.

At issue are the different implementations of HTML by the various browser manufacturers and the different machine platform display and rendering characteristics.

Also called browser compatibility testing and cross-browser testing.

Compatibility is a product feature and can have different levels of compliance.
