Test Design Techniques
Test Design Techniques explores the structured methods used to create high-quality test cases. This category includes black-box, white-box, and experience-based techniques such as Equivalence Partitioning, Boundary Value Analysis, Decision Table Testing, State Transition Testing, Branch Testing, Exploratory Testing, and Error Guessing. Learning these techniques enables testers to maximize defect detection while minimizing the number of test cases required.
