Boundary value analysis:
The values for the test cases are selected from the
boundaries and are given as input to the system.
selecting boundary values:
If we have a class with values from min to max
Test for input data at min-1, min, min+1, max-1, max and at
max+1.
example for bva: Y2K compliance tool kit:
The tool sets the system date to 31st Dec and to 1st Jan
and see for the proper roll over of the system.
Equivalence partition:
Splitting the inputs and outputs of the software under test
into a number of partitions.
Error guessing:
There is no formal procedure based on experience they will
test.
for example:

Answer / abbas
bva - ex:- input box should accept no.s 1 to 5
test scenario desc expected outcome
b.v=0 don't accept
b.v=1 accept
b.v=2 accept
b.v=3 accept
b.v=4 accept
b.v=5 accept
b.v=6 don't accept
in equivalence partition first u divide a set of test condn into a partition
ex:-input data from 1 to 10
test scenario desc value
enter 0 to 5 chars don't accept -------------------partition 1
enter 6 to 10 chars accept--------------------------partition 2
enter 11 t0 16 chars don't accept-------------------partition 3

Boundary value analysis:
take the input value from the edges of the classes and
write the test case.
Eg:
1..........n;
input value is -1 0 1 and (n-1), n, (n+1)
Equivalent Partioning
Divide the input value into different class and pick the
value from the each class and write the test case:
Eg:
Age=n
input value is +n and -n

boundary value analysis,Equivalence partitioning these are
the two techiniques to minimize the no of test cases.

What is client server application testing?
Why Equivalence Partitioning is called equivalence or what is the significance of equivalence term in ECP?
What are the methods you followed, while doing black box testing???
What is mean by Schedule report who is the responsible for generated that one ?
What are the testing techniques and what are the difference between Unit testing & White box testing is Unit testing comes under White Box testing, if WBT is a technique under this we do Path Testing, Loop Testing so what we do in Unit testing
why did u chose software testing?
How do the test cases differ for Functional,Integration,System and User Acceptance Testing???
What is Reproducible Defect? and When we will rise that defect as Reproducible Defect?
Give me examples for high severity and low priority defects?
when the test plan will be prepared in waterfall model?
what is quality Factor
which kind of testing you are performing in diffrent phases of SDLC
