what is the difference between web based application and client server application as a testers point of view?

Answer
Client server application: In this type of architecture,
the entier application has to be installed on client
machine, and whenever you do any changes in your code,
again it has to be installed on all the client machines.

Web based application:Core application resides on the
server and client can be thin client( browser).whatever
changes you do, you have to install the application in
server, NO need to worry about the clients,bcoz u will not
install anything on client machine


1)Client server applcation directly we can launch
where as for launching the web based applcations we need
start database server,web server and by using internet
explorer (URL) we can launch web based application

2)Client server applications are menu driven where as web
based applications are liks driven to get the next page.

3)Client server application will contain less content, and
with less images
when compared to web based applications
web applications will contain more content with more images
