Testing Techniques in Knowledge Control Methodology

Black Box Testing

Testing technique that focuses on input and output without knowledge of internal workings
Test cases are based on software requirements and specifications
Advantages:
- Easy to learn and implement
- Can be applied to any level of testing (unit, integration, system)
- Fast test case development
Disadvantages:
- Limited testing of internal logic and structure
- May not detect all errors

White Box Testing

Testing technique that focuses on internal workings and structure of software
Test cases are based on knowledge of code and algorithms
Advantages:
- Thorough testing of internal logic and structure
- Can detect all errors
- Optimizes testing efforts
Disadvantages:
- Requires knowledge of programming languages and code
- Time-consuming and complex test case development

Gray Box Testing

Testing technique that combines elements of black box and white box testing
Test cases are based on limited knowledge of internal workings and software requirements
Advantages:
- Balances testing of internal logic and external functionality
- Faster test case development compared to white box testing
- More effective than black box testing
Disadvantages:
- Requires some knowledge of programming languages and code
- May not be as thorough as white box testing

Equivalence Partitioning

Testing technique that divides input data into partitions based on certain conditions
Test cases are designed to cover each partition at least once
Advantages:
- Reduces number of test cases
- Increases testing efficiency
- Effective for testing with multiple input conditions
Disadvantages:
- May not detect all errors
- Requires careful analysis of input data

Boundary Value Analysis

Testing technique that focuses on testing at the boundaries of input data partitions
Test cases are designed to cover the minimum and maximum values of each partition
Advantages:
- Effective for testing with multiple input conditions
- Detects errors at the boundaries
- Reduces number of test cases
Disadvantages:
- May not detect all errors within the partitions
- Requires careful analysis of input data
