Condition Testing is a white-box technique focusing on atomic conditions. Key features:
Definition:
- Tests individual Boolean expressions
- Focuses on the smallest testable units of logic
Process:
- Identify atomic conditions in code
- Design tests for each possible outcome
- Execute tests and analyse results
Advantages:
- Detailed testing of decision logic
- Helps identify subtle logic errors
Challenges:
- Can be time-consuming for complex logic
- May require many test cases
Applications:
- Critical systems with complex logic
- Safety-critical software
Condition testing ensures a thorough evaluation of individual logical conditions.
