Definition:
Abbreviated UI, the junction between a user and a computer program. An interface is a set of commands or menus through which a user communicates with a program. A command-driven interface is one in which you enter commands. A menu-driven interface is one in which you select command choices from various menus displayed on the screen.
The user interface is one of the most important parts of any program because it determines how easily you can make the program do what you want. A powerful program with a poorly designed user interface has little value.
User Interface Testing is one of the more time consuming forms of testing that needs to be done.
Here is an example of a list used for UI testing. The client can determine any and all UI items to test.

Definition:
Also known as Black Box testing. A software testing technique whereby the
internal workings of the item being tested are not known by the tester. For
example, in a black box test on a software design the tester only knows the
inputs and what the expected outcomes should be and not how the program arrives
at those outputs. The tester does not ever examine the programming code and does
not need any further knowledge of the program other than its specifications.
The advantages of this type of testing include:
The test is unbiased because the designer and the tester are independent of one
another.
The tester does not need knowledge of any specific programming languages.
The test is done from the point of view of the user, not the designer.
Test cases can be designed as soon as the specifications are complete.
Definition:
