hi aritra,

The main focus of state transition testing is to test the transition from one state to another. i mean open state to closed state.

Thanks

State transition is a blackbok testing techinique. It is used to test the objects state and behaviour ie state transition testing can be defined as object = state + behavior * behavior is the sequence of messages (or events) that an object accepts * state is a condition in which a system is waiting for one or multiple events * transition represents change from one state to another caused by an event * event is input that may cause a transition * action is operation initiated because of a state change (occur on ransitions) eg : an atm machine * after entering the valid pin the user can move to any transaction like balance enquiry, withdrawal, pin change etc how do we test the transition.

Agree with Geeklover.

A good test case to test the state transition logic should excercise all the activities that change and don't change the state.
