next checks the total no. of keys and check whether all keys are present and present correctly in their specified positions

next check the display of the alphabet when the corresponding key is pressed

check the display of the data when different keys combinations are entered

RE: How will you test a keyboard?

You can not test all of the key combinations, so you would have to construct a matrix, and pick which combinations to test. Of course testing standards for hardware tend to be much more rigurous than software testing, except miltary avionics software, of course.
