Testing Methodologies: Software Methodologies are not
restricted to testing, basically they are defined at project

would be applicable to complete software development life cycle.

2. Spiral model aka prototyping
3. V-model
4. Waterfall model
5. Agile Methodology - one of the most popular methodology
now a days in various organizations.
Testing Techniques: Testing techniques are the approaches
used for writing test cases / test plans and execute them.
The following testing techniques are widely user for
preparing test cases and doing adhoc testing:
1. Equivalence partitioning
2. Boundary Value Analysis

Testing Methodology represents the whole testing procedure of the study or research.
While Testing Technics represent only one phase of the Testing Procedure. Hence, we can say Testing Technics is contained in the whole process of the Testing Methodology. In set language, the set of Testing Technics a subset of the universal set of Testing Methodology.
