What is Functional Testing?

Functional testing is a quality assurance (QA) process that validates software applications against functional requirements and specifications. It ensures that each function of the software application operates in conformance with the requirement specification. It primarily involves black-box testing, and testers do not need to know the internal structure of the code. Common uses include verifying input, output, and system behaviors against expected results.
