RE: can anyone pls clarify diffn between functionality...

GUI Testing: GUI Testing means checking the availability of controls (fields buttons dropdowns etc..) on the application.

GUI Testing not comes under Functionality Testing.

Functionality Testing: Validation of actual functionality of Controls after giving input to certain fields in the application.

We can devide System Testing into following categories

1. Functionality Testing

2. GUI Testing

3. Performance Testing

4. Security Testing ....etc.

Actually the GUI tesing is nothing but the testing of external funcitonality of the application where else the funcionality testing is testing the internal funcionality of the application.

GUI Testing: Test if the objects are displayed exactly how they are supposed to display.Fuctional testing: Test if the GUI objects are functioning correctly fulfilling the purpose for which they are added to the application.I think field validation comes in Functional testing cause in GUI testing we only only test that a field is displayed and if it is editable or not.
