Conclusion

Now, we bring our thoughts to a close. In this book, we have introduced several key concepts, including two-phase model-based testing, action-state testing, and optimized domain testing. Additionally, we have demonstrated that relying on two- and three-point boundary value analysis (BVA) is not a reliable approach, but instead, we have introduced the four-point test selection criterion. We have elucidated the process of state selection for state-based testing and conducted a comparative analysis of stateless, stateful, and mixed testing methods. Furthermore, we have redefined fundamental testing principles and exposed the reasons why certain traditional principles no longer hold true.
