Project 1 - V&V SW Analysis - I

Black box testing:
• Black box testing is a technique of software testing that examines the functionality of the software without peering into its internal structure or coding. The primary source of black-box testing is a specification of requirements that are stated by the customer.
• In this method, the tester selects a function and gives input value to examine its functionality, and checks whether the function is giving the expected output or not. If the function produces the correct output, then it is passed in testing, otherwise failed. The test team reports the result to the development team and then tests the next function. After completing the testing of all functions if there are severe problems, it is given back to the development team for correction.
What is the Test Plan:-
• A Test Plan is a document that consists of all future testing-related activities. It is prepared at the project level and in general, it defines work products to be tested, how they will be tested, and test type distribution among the testers. Before starting testing there will be a test manager who will prepare a test plan. In any company whenever a new project is taken up before the tester involves in the testing the test manager of the team prepares a test Plan.
