Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a test plan for an input field that allows values between 5 and 15, detailing how you would apply both BVA and ECT.

💡 Hint: Start by identifying all edges and their near neighbors.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create test cases for a function that processes user age between 0 and 120. Include BVA and discuss how this meets ECT methods.

💡 Hint: Think about logical age definitions and verify requirements against them.
