HI

Equivalancy class partition is a Testing Technique  in input domain testing

we will partitioin the input data as valid and invalid

here  a small example i'll give

assume that there is a password authentication

for the password length miimum range is 3 and maximum 9 & it shoud accept only lowercase letter and should not accept any  and Ascii value's

by using ECP Technique we will prepare the test data like this

Equivalence classpartition

Valid Input Data

Invalid input Data

3-9

0-2,10& Above

       a to z

A to Z

 

@,#$%^&*

 

if still any Doubts regarding this pelase feel free to contact

In equivalence class partitioning u derive the test data such as set of valid input data , eg, 0-100 & 201-500and set of invalide input data , eg 101-200, 501 above , all -ve number. If you are required to test this manually, using ECP you can test for the values at the boundaries and some intertmediate values such as valid input data {0,50,100,201,300,400,500}invalide input data {-1,-100,101,150,200,501,700,1000} will make the life simpler of tester without comprising the quality, this ECP should be approved by the developer

Equivalence partitioning divides the in put domain of program in to classes of data from which the test cases r derived.example: if the credit limit of a credit card is $1000 -$5000 then we will b having 3 equivalence classes,they r (1)<$1000 (2)>$5000 (3)between $1000-$5000.hope u understand......

A technique that consists of developing a Test case and the date focussing on Input and Output of the domain function.

For example take the login window.

The user id is allowed is 3 is Maximum

The password is allowed is 7 is Minimum.

valid Input .

3-7 characters.

Invalid Input.

0-2 characters, 9,10,#,$,&,.% and etc and so on.

Hi,

Equivalence partitioning is a kind of black box testing in which both the valid and invalid data are applied in a test case. The inputs are divided into equal parts and it depends on the requirement specification.

For eg:

If the valid data lies between 100 to 200,

the values provided to that particular test case will be 50, 150, 250.

Hi,

This method divides the input domain of a program into classes of data from which test cases can be derived. Equivalence partitioning strives to define a test case that uncovers classes of errors and thereby reduces the number of test cases needed. It is based on an evaluation of equivalence classes for an input condition. An equivalence class represents a set of valid or invalid states for input conditions.

Equivalance Class Partition is a Black box testing technique, in which the input data is divided into classes such that, the software functionality remains same for any value of same class. A class is set of input conditions that are likely to be handled in same way by the system


Equivalance Partitioning is done to reduce the number of permutation and combinations for input data.
