The major role of it is to test the performance of the system as per its parameters which must not be addressed by functional testing. It also comes under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tutorialspoint.com\/software_testing_dictionary\/black_box_testing.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"black box testing (opens in a new tab)\">black box testing<\/a> technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In other hands, this testing can be easily understandable by checking how many people can simultaneously login into a software application. Both <a href=\"https:\/\/w3softech.com\/blog\/functional-testing\/\">Functional Testing<\/a> and Non-Functional Testing are important in Software Testing to get the expected output

and portability of the product<\/li><li>It helps to decrease the production cost and risk in accordance with aspects of the product<\/li><li>Optimizes the way of product installation, setup, execution, management and monitorization<\/li><li>It collects and provides metric measurements over internal research and development<\/li><li>Finally, it helps to improve and enhance product behavior and technologies in use<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"
