White-box testing is a verification technique software engineers can use to examine if their
code works as expected. In this chapter, we will explain the following:
*a method for writing a set of white-box test cases that exercise the paths in the code
*the use of equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis to manage the number of
test cases that need to be written and to examine error-prone/extreme “corner” test cases
*how to measure how thoroughly the test cases exercise the code
White-box testing is testing that takes into account the internal mechanism of a system or
component (IEEE, 1990). White-box testing is also known as structural testing, clear box
testing, and glass box testing (Beizer, 1995). The connotations of “clear box” and “glass
box” appropriately indicate that you have full visibility of the internal workings of the
software product, specifically, the logic and the structure of the code.
