5. Test Case Design Techniques

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is the purpose of Boundary Value Analysis?

   Hint

   Think about where most input errors occur.

2. 2.

   Define Equivalence Partitioning.

   Hint

   How does it help reduce the number of tests?

3. 3.

   What does Boundary Value Analysis focus on?

   • Middle values
   • Boundary conditions
   • Random values

   Hint

   Think about where defects are most likely to occur.

4. 4.

   True or False: Equivalence Partitioning requires testing all input values.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider the definition of equivalence groups.

5. 5.

   Create a decision table for an online purchase scenario accounting for item availability and payment methods.

   Hint

   Reflect on how different factors affect the purchase outcome.

6. 6.

   Explain how you would implement Boundary Value Analysis on an input form accepting credit scores from 300 to 850.

   Hint

   Consider the limits and just beyond them.
