Answer / archana
Provide inputs in such a way that up on the usage of these
inputs we would successfully pass the feature in working as
per its specifications.This kind of a testing is positive
testing.For example: to login to gmail account we need to
give authenticated/registered correct user id and password
and submit.
Whereas in negative testing, we deliberately introduce the
invalid inputs in order to fail the application. For a
login into gmail account we can have 4 types of negative
inputs. i.a valid id but invalid password, ii. an invalid
id with correct password, iii. invalid id and password, and
iv. enter all correct values but press a cancel button
after entering the data.
Hope this will clear your query.
