Dictionary
condition: A logical expression that can be evaluated as True or False, e.g. A>B. See also test condition. condition outcome: The evaluation of a condition to True or False. condition testing: A white box test design technique in which test cases are designed to execute condition outcomes. compound condition: Two or more single conditions joined by means of a logical operator (AND, OR or XOR), e.g. ‘A>B AND C>1000’.
condition coverage: The percentage of condition outcomes that have been exercised by a test suite. 100% condition coverage requires each single condition in every decision statement to be tested as True and False.
