Test Conditions and Risk based testing

[HOK2000]

Please, can anyone help with steps in reviewing test conditions.
What are the importance and relevance of risk based testing?

Hello All,

Can you define what is Antibugging?

Hi,

Reviewing Test Conditions would more or less depend on Test Specifications or SRS. Incase you have a Decision flow diagram or Flow chart specifying navigational flow, check whether every decision branch is covered as part of Test Condition.

In short check whether your testcase covers Valid, Invalid and Errorneous test conditions.

As regards Risk Based testing, we generally perform it in case of time crunch. When we cannot complete execution of all regression cases within a specifed time frame, we shift to Risk-based testing.

We consider the Risk weightage factor which would be calculated on the Complexity and Criticality of the function. Based on the calculated Weightages, we test out the critical modules first - those which pose a higher risk of failing if not tested.

Cheers...

Hello All,

Can you define what is Antibugging?

Antibugging describes a set of programming techniques that minimize the probability of introducing a bug to a program at design time or input. Antibugging is also called as defensive programming.

Another definition:
Writing code is only half the battle. Debugging the code can be much more work than writing it. Careful design can help in avoiding many hours of debugging. This is sometimes called antibugging.
