Difference between blackbox and whitebox tests

Image
The key difference between black box testing and white box testing lies in their approach to examining software functionality. Here's a breakdown to clarify: Black Box Testing: Black box testing, also known as behavioural testing, treats the software as a black box. Testers are concerned with the external behaviour and functionality without considering the internal code structure. Black box testers typically don't require in-depth knowledge of the software's internal code. They focus on requirements, specifications, and user stories. Black box testing is useful for: System testing and user acceptance testing. Usability testing. Smoke testing and sanity testing. Black box testing techniques are: Equivalence partitioning Boundary value analysis Error guessing and User scenario testing These techniques focus on input values, expected outputs, and system behaviour under various conditions. Advantages: Black box testing reflects how actual users interact with the software, i...

What are the different ceremonies in Agile?

Agile ceremonies are formal meetings or events held within an Agile development process to ensure transparency, collaboration, and progress. These recurring gatherings keep everyone informed, aligned, and focused on delivering value throughout the project life-cycle. Here are the four most common Agile ceremonies: 1.Sprint Planning: This meeting marks the beginning of a new sprint (a short development cycle). The development team, along with the product owner, collaboratively plan the tasks for the upcoming sprint. Activities: The product owner presents the product backlog, a prioritised list of features and functionalities for the product. The development team selects user stories (requirements) from the top of the backlog and estimates the effort required to complete them within the sprint time-frame. This estimation is often done using relative sizing techniques . The team collaboratively defines clear and measurable goals for the sprint, ensuring everyone is aligned on what needs ...

Popular options include GitKraken, GitHub Desktop, TortoiseGit, etc. Download and install your preferred GIT GUI tool. Existing Local Repository: Make sure you have a local Git repository initialised for your project. If you haven't already, you can initialise a Git repository in your project directory using the command line (git init) or through your GIT GUI's initialisation options. GitHub Remote Repository: You'll need a GitHub repository to push your local changes to. If you haven't created one yet, follow the steps mentioned previously on creating a repository on GitHub. Steps: Launch your GIT GUI client and open the directory containing your project files.  Most GIT GUIs will automatically detect changes in your working directory. You can usually see a section highlighting modified or new files. In the GIT GUI interface, look for a ...
