RE: Differentiate between Static and Dynamic testing.....
Software testing is a process of analyzing or operating software for the purpose of finding bugs.According to the definition testing can involve either analyzing or operating software. Test activities that are associated with analyzing the products of software development are called static testing. Static testing includes code inspections walkthroughs and desk checks. In contrast test activities that involve operating the software are called dynamic testing. Static and dynamic testing complement one another and each type has a unique approach to detecting bugs.

Differentiate between Static and Dynamic testing.....

Static testing:Non-execution based testing is called static testing.

ex:unit testing system testing...

Dynamic testing:Execution based Testing is called dynamic testing

Ex: Walkthrough reviews inspection

RE: Differentiate between Static and Dynamic testing.....
Static Testing : It is the process of testing the application code(and/or related documents) with out running it it can be code review walk through etc.Dynamic Testing : It is the process of testing the application/code by running it. (ie black box testing).

RE: Differentiate between Static and Dynamic testing.....
1: Static testing is about prevention dynamic testing is about cure.2: The static tools offer greater marginal benefits.3: Static testing is many times more cost-effective than dynamic testing.4: Static testing achieves 100 statement coverage in a relatively short time while dynamic testing often often achieves less than 50 statement coverage because dynamic testing finds bugs only in parts of the code that are actually executed.5: Dynamic testing usually takes longer than static testing. Dynamic testing may involve running several test cases each of which may take longer than compilation.6: Static testing can be done before compilation while dynamic testing can take place only after compilation and linking.7: Static testing can find all of the followings that dynamic testing cannot find: syntax errors code that is hard to maintain code that is hard to test code that does not conform to coding standards and ANSI violations.

Sorry Mr srinivasan im mnot agreeing with ur answer Unit testing System testing etc these are all comes under Dynammic testing

Walkthroughs inspections and reviews are comes under static testing

RE: Differentiate between Static and Dynamic testing.....

Static Testing : Testing the application when it's not being executed
Ex : GUI Testing Data Base Testing.

Dynamic Testing : Testing the application when it's being executed
Ex : Functionality of application.

Verification is static technique for static technique we do not need computer.
Validation is Dynamic technique for this we need computer which include testing and prototyping

Static Testing - Code is examined without being executed.
Eg. Code Inspections Reviews and walk-through.

Dynamic Testing - Code is executed and tested without necessarily being examined.
Eg. Black box Testing.
