Boundary Value Analysis for testing password.

As per rule boundary value Analysis must have SIx Conditions MIN-1, MIN, MIN+1
MAX-1, MAX, MAX+1

As per ref available for me from

http://softwaretestingguide.blogspot.com/

for user id when can apply same for password it works like this
lets have condition password min 4 char max 10 char in length.password can be any thing since password depends on userid.

MIN-1
User ID : master
password : abc
result :Should not accept should popup msg "enter Correct Password".

MIN
User ID : Master
password : abcd
result : Should accept

MIN+1
User ID : Master
password : abcd
result : Should accept

MAX-1
User ID : Master
password : 123456789
result : Should accept

MAX
User ID : Master
password : abcd123456
result : Should accept

MAX+1
User ID : Master
password : abcd1234567
result : Should not accept should popup msg "enter Correct Password".

RE: How do you use boundary value analysis testing for evaluating the password ?

Firstly we have to identify that what is the BVA range of the password from the SRS Document/from the client requirements and capture the min and max ranges

So according that we have to test by following min-1 min min+1 max-1 max max+1
By following this we have to test for Boundary value analysis to evaluate that password

We should get the testing results as
min-1 (fail)
min (pass)
min+1(pass)
max-1(pass)
max(pass)
max+1(fail)
