Manual Testing is the process of evaluating software functionality and quality by human testers without automation tools, following defined procedures to identify defects and verify correct behavior. It is governed by international standards such as ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 and supported by frameworks from ISTQB, forming a foundational practice within structured software testing methodologies. Key components include Test Planning Process for defining scope and strategy, Test Design & Implementation Process to develop test cases and procedures, Test Execution Process for running tests manually, Test Monitoring and Control Process to track progress, and Test Completion Process to report results and preserve assets. These are supported by Test Documentation templates and Test Techniques such as equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis defined in ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-4. Manual Testing is for software testers, test analysts, and quality assurance professionals who need to validate application behavior from an end-user perspective, particularly where usability, exploratory evaluation, or non-automatable scenarios require human judgment and direct interaction.
