Overview
This Black-box and White-box Testing course offered by Coursera in partnership with University of Minnesota is part of the Software Testing and Automation Specialization.
The learner will have examined requirements for testability, created an oracle for automated testing, assessed fault-finding effectiveness of test suites, and generated inputs using a variety of techniques.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- evaluate testability of requirements
- define testable units within a program specification
- apply black-box test input selection methods - specifically boundary-value analysis, fuzzing, and random selection - and select the method most-suited to achieve the given testing objective
- assess the fault-finding effectiveness of a functional test suite using mutation testing
- use category partitioning to develop automated functional tests (with Cucumber) based on a given software specification
- create an expected-value oracle from a program description to use within the generated tests
