About the 3rd and 4th type of testing techniques
Hi all,
I'm a newbie to software testing and planning to do a course on the same. I was going through the testing syllabus content of an institute in india and they say about 4 testing techniquies
1)Black box
2)White box
3)Incremental
4)Thread
I went through some testing tutorials and have a rough idea about the first two. Can some one give me an idea about the 3rd and 4th type of testing techniques? Also please help me in finding some good video tutorials which as a beginner in software testing would be helpfull for me in preparation.
Thankyou all in advance
Geek interview rocks :)
Re: About the 3rd and 4th type of testing techniques
Incremental is integration testing.
What is this thread testing, may be they are talking about performance testing.
you may ask them self to explain the terms.

Hey!as you have already found out, there are 4 testing techniques:
1.blackbox
2.whitebox
3.incremental
4.thread
since you have an idea about the first two,i'll skip them and come to the next.
Incremental testing:is a method of testing the interfaces between unit tested programmes as well as between system components.it involves adding unit tested programs one by one and testing each result and combination.there are 2 types of incremental testing:
1.top-down:begins testing from the top of the module hierarchy and works down to the bottom.stubs are used to replace low level modules.
2.bottom-up:begins testing from the bottom of the hierarchy and works up to thetop.drivers are used to replace high level modules.
Thread testing:is often used during early integration testing.demonstrates key functional capabilities by testing a string of units that accomplish a specific function in the application.thread and incremental testing are usually utilized together.ex:units can undergo incremental testing until enough units are integrated and a single business function is performed,threading through the integrated components.

Will you explain thread testing a little bit more?
I mean process+ how we will do it?
It's really interested to know about it.
