Study Notes
Testing Methods
Black Box Testing
- Testing without knowledge of the internal workings of the system
- Focus on input and output
- Types:
- Equivalence Partitioning: divide input into partitions and test each partition
- Boundary Value Analysis: test at the boundaries of the input partitions
White Box Testing
- Testing with knowledge of the internal workings of the system
- Focus on the code and logic
- Types:
- Statement Coverage: ensure each statement is executed
- Decision Coverage: ensure each decision is executed
- Path Coverage: ensure each path is executed
Gray Box Testing
- Combination of black box and white box testing
- Tester has some knowledge of the internal workings of the system
- Focus on the interactions between components
Unit Testing
- Testing individual units of code (functions, methods, etc.)
- Focus on ensuring each unit works as expected
- Typically done by the developer who wrote the code
Integration Testing
- Testing how individual units work together
- Focus on ensuring the interactions between units work as expected
- Typically done by a separate team or person
System Testing
- Testing the entire system as a whole
- Focus on ensuring the system meets the requirements and works as expected
- Typically done by a separate team or person
Acceptance Testing
- Testing to ensure the system meets the acceptance criteria
- Focus on ensuring the system is ready for release
- Typically done by the end-users or customers
