Hi,

Web Testing means testing a web application whether it will work properly.

There are various checks have to be done. They are Functionality, Usability, Server Side Interfaces, Client Side Compatability, Performance and Security.

In Functionality we used to check the links(internal,external etc), Form Level Validation, Error Handling, Cookies and Database ( Data Integrity would be checked).

Usability - About the user friendliness of the site.

Server-Side : Server Interface

Client-Side : Browser, OS Compatibility

Performance : Connection Speed, Load & Stress Test.

Security : Valid & Invalid login. etc..

Hi, we can add one more testing with Lavanya's view for the web testing ,i.e. Cross Browser testing. Means the testing by using different browsers (internet Explorer, mozilla, etc). We have to check the performance and other functionalities using different browser.

Thanks...

Hi....
Let me add few more with the existing comments from 'Lavanya'.  
  1)Accessibility is given much important these days... needs to be checked.
  2)CSS needs to checked.
  3)Also if the web application provides some content access.. DRM servers will implemented.. This licensing functionality needs to be checked in depth.
  4) security, performance & compatibility aspects of application is extremely important.
