Addressing Feasible Research Directions and Testing Aspects for Cloud-Based Systems: A Review for Energy Saving Aspect

Cloud computing is a new way of accessing and using computing resources. It allows users to access and configure these resources without the usual difficulties of managing them easily and conveniently. The use of this approach goes against standard software licensing rules. Because of the increasing acceptance of services that are cloud-based, thorough testing needs to be done before consumer shipment. Reduced expenses, much greater flexibility, better collaboration, higher output, and—above all—a less time-to-market for key business software are merely some of the advantages of cloud-based testing. This chapter’s initial goals is to calculate the cost of cloud computing testing, clarify testing concepts, clarify between traditional and cloud testing techniques, and look at the various frameworks and models that are currently now accessible for cloud-based testing. This statement explores testing methods with Cloud settings, points out the benefit of creating automated test cases and provides options for those looking into the topic, giving useful knowledge about its development.
