CST 438 Week 3

CST 438 Week 3

This week we learned about the differences of white box and black box testing. White box testing takes into account the internal mechanism of a system. Black box testing has no visibility to the code and the test cases are written based on input and output functionality. Although black box testing is not controlled, meaning it only finds symptoms of problems, it is still necessary to find different types of faults that white box testing may miss.

During the assignment, I had trouble with question #10 which asked to develop test cases for different scenarios. I felt the text did not provide adequate instruction for me to efficiently figure out this last problem. I hope to get good feedback from the professor as to how to go about this problem.

This week we were able to get a simple hello world program written in the language and framework we will be using for our group project. Our next step is to build a database to utilize for the movie house website that we will be developing for.
