White Box Testing:

> After the software is developed, the developer checks each and every line of code against the requirements. Since each and every line is tested here. it is also called unit testing and since the code is visible here it is also called transparent testing or glass box testing.
>Usually it is the developer who performs WBT

Black box testing:

>After White Box testing is completed by the developer. the software is sent to the tester checks every component thoroughly against the SRS. This is called black box testing. Since the code is not visible here, it is also called closed box testing.
>Always it is the tester who performs BBT
