Possible topics:

• Black box testing – Tests the functionality of the software without looking at the internal code structure.
• White box testing – Tests the internal code structure and logic of the software.
• Unit testing – Tests individual units or components of the software to ensure they are functioning as intended.
• Integration testing – Tests the integration of different components of the software to ensure they work together as a system.
• Functional testing – Tests the functional requirements of the software to ensure they are met.
• System testing – Tests the complete software system to ensure it meets the specified requirements.
• Acceptance testing – Tests the software to ensure it meets the customer’s or end-user’s expectations.
• Regression testing – Tests the software after changes or modifications have been made to ensure the changes have not introduced new defects.
• Performance testing – Tests the software to determine its performance characteristics such as speed, scalability, and stability.
• Security testing – Tests the software to identify vulnerabilities and ensure it meets security requirements.
