Let us know all about Gray Box Testing Technique
Code coverage testing involves "Dynamic Testing" methods of executing the product with prewritten test cases and finding out how much of code has been covered. If a better coverage of a code is desired, several iterations of testing may be required. For every iteration, one has to write a new set of test cases for covering those portions of code that were not covered by earlier test cases. To do such type of testing, not only does one need to understand the code and logic but also need to understand how to write effective test cases that can cover good portions of the code.
Understanding of code and logic means white box or structural testing whereas writing effective test cases means black box testing. So, what we need is in fact a combination of white box and black box techniques for test effectiveness. This type of testing is known as gray box testing'.
Thus we can say that
WHITE + BLACK = GRAY

All About White Box Testing
Firstly let us understand the meaning of White Box Testing.
White box testing is a way of testing the external functionality of the code by examining and testing the program code that realizes the external functionality. It is a methodology to design the test cases that uses the control structure of the application to design test cases. White box testing is used to test the program code, code structure and the internal design flow.
A number of defects get amplified because of incorrect translation of requirements and design into program code. Let us see different techniques of white box testing.
Primarily White Box Testing comprises of two sub-streams of testing like:
1) Static White Box Testing
2) Dynamic White Box Testing
Static White Box Testing: It is a type of testing in which the program source code is tested without running it. We only need to examine and review the code. It means that we need not execute the code. We need to find out whether
a)The code works according to the functional requirements.
b)The code has been written in accordance with the design developed earlier in the project life cycle.
c) The code for any functionality has been missed out.
d) The code handles errors properly.
Static testing can be done by human being or with the help of specialized tools. Thus we can define static white box testing as a process involving a methodical & careful examination of the software architecture, basic design or its code with a view to hunt for bugs without executing it. It is called structural analysis as well sometimes.
Dynamic White Box Testing: This involves testing a running program. So, now binaries and executables are desired. We try to test the internal logic of the program now. It entails running the actual product against some pre-designed test cases to exercise as much of the code as possible.
