In modeling, the process of testing a predictive model against previous data is referred to as "backtesting." It is a special kind of cross-validation that is applied to previous time periods. It is used in a trading strategy, investment strategy, or risk modeling to estimate how well a strategy or model would have performed if it had been used in the past. Backtesting has historically only been done by professional money managers and large institutions because it is expensive to get and use detailed datasets.

One of the most important aspects of improving a trading system is back testing. It can assist traders in optimizing and developing their strategies, identifying any technical or theoretical flaws, and boosting confidence in their strategy before putting it into action on the real-world markets if performed and interpreted correctly. Due to technological advancement and the growing use of back testing by international traders and investment firms, the backtesting software market experienced strong global growth. Institutional investors frequently find themselves forced to the backrest in order to evaluate risk due to the large amounts of money at stake.
