Decision Table Testing is a powerful technique used to evaluate system behavior across different combinations of inputs, particularly for complex business logic. By organizing conditions into a table format, this method allows testers to visualize various scenarios and ensure comprehensive test coverage. This technique is especially useful when system responses vary significantly with different sets of input data, where techniques like Equivalence Partitioning or Boundary Value Analysis might not be as effective. Through practical examples, such as login screens and file upload validation, this section will demonstrate how to structure decision tables and use them to generate precise test cases. Key benefits include better test coverage for complex logic, clear visualization of input combinations, and increased efficiency in managing large numbers of input scenarios.
-
In this episode, we explore two key testing techniques: Boundary Value Analysis (BVA) and Equivalence Partitioning, crucial for optimizing test case selection. We dive into how BVA tests the boundaries between partitions of input values, while Equivalence Partitioning helps reduce the number of test cases by dividing input data into equivalent classes. Learn how these techniques help increase test coverage while saving time, especially for applications with large input ranges. We’ll cover practical examples, including testing scenarios for order limits and password fields, to demonstrate how to apply these strategies effectively. Perfect for anyone looking to enhance their software testing skills!

Test data is a crucial component in software testing. It is used to verify whether the software works as expected, playing a vital role in functional and performance testing. Creating appropriate test data to cover both positive and negative test scenarios directly impacts the quality of the software. This section discusses what test data is, how it should be generated, and how it is applied across different testing types.

The Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM) is a document that maps user requirements to test cases, ensuring full test coverage and validation of all functionalities. It helps track requirements throughout the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and ensures that no requirement is left untested.
RTM provides different types of traceability:
• Forward Traceability (maps requirements to test cases)
• Backward Traceability (ensures no extra work beyond requirements)
• Bi-directional Traceability (combines both forward and backward mapping)
The RTM improves test coverage, highlights missing requirements, and helps in tracking defects, making it an essential tool for QA teams.

Test Analysis in software testing is the process of examining and analyzing test artifacts to define test conditions or test cases. The goal is to gather requirements and establish test objectives as the foundation for test conditions. This process is often derived from sources such as SRS (Software Requirement Specification), BRS (Business Requirement Specification), and Functional Design Documents.
A case study on adding a search functionality to an eCommerce store illustrates how test analysis works, demonstrating how test scenarios are created based on client requirements.
