Obviously, you’re testing your code–but are you thoroughly testing it? Are you testing the right things? Is there more you could be testing? Enter black box testing techniques. Equivalence partitioning. Boundary value analysis. Decision tables. Combinatorial testing. State transition testing. While black box is done without considering the code, these are the foundational testing techniques and can be applied to any type of testing. You’ll learn about each type of testing and how to apply it to different situations to understand the features better and engage in deeper testing. Join Jenny Bramble as she walks through these five foundational techniques and how we can apply them to our unit tests. You’ll come away from the talk with a stronger understanding of testing and how to go beyond ‘Does it work’ into ‘Does it work well?’
