Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A software application accepts input for user roles as 'Admin', 'Guest', and 'User'. How would you apply ECT and BVA to this scenario?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how applications might react to case sensitivity.

Question 2

In a range of decimal numbers from 0.0 to 100.0, create equivalence classes and derive test cases while applying BVA.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the decimals and their neighboring values around the boundaries.
