User interface testing tries to determine correct application behavior by entering test data via its user interface, checking valid reactions thereafter. User interface testing usually may not prove proper implementation of software functions since the application under test is often tested as a black box. Tools used for this category of testing are frequently implemented as Capture-Replay tools.
