Difference between static tests and dynamic tests

Software testing is the process of analyzing or operating software with the aim of finding errors. As we know, the tests involve "diagnostic" or "operational" software. Static testing is the testing activity associated with the evaluation of software development products. Static tests include verification codes, gear and desktop controls. Dynamic testing, on the other hand, is the testing process that the software can operate. Static and dynamic tests are complementary to each other and each type has a unique approach to detect errors.


The static test is a white box test system where developers verify or verify the code to find faults. This type of test is completed without running the applications currently developed. Testing The dynamic test is completed by running the actual application with valid entries to verify the results. Examples of methods for dynamic tests are Unit tests, Integration tests, System tests and Acceptance tests.


The main difference between static tests and dynamic tests is:

  • The static test is about prevention, but the dynamic test is about prevention.

  • Static tests are less expensive than dynamic tests.

  • Static testing tools offer greater marginal benefits compared to dynamic tests.

  • Static tests provide complete analyzes for the code instead of dynamic tests.

  • Dynamic tests find fewer errors compared to static tests.

  • Dynamic tests generally take longer compared to static tests, since they test each case separately.

  • Static tests cover more areas than dynamic tests in less time.

  • Static tests are performed before code deployment, but dynamic tests after code deployment.

  • Static tests take place in the validation phase, while dynamic tests take place in the validation phase.

  • Static tests are being tested without executing the code, but in dynamic tests, the code is executed and tested without being tested.
