What is Boundary Value Analysis
BVA is similar to Equivalence Partitioning but focuses on "corner cases" or values that are usually out of range as defined by the specification. It means that if a function expects all values in range of negative 100 to positive 1000, test inputs would include negative 101 and positive 1001.

Boundary value Analysis is a technique in which test data is chosen from the boundaries or inputs or output data structure ,Choices often include the actual minimum & maximum bounday values ,the maximum values plus or minus one and mininmum value plus or minus one.
