Key facts

Test design is a process that describes “how” testing should be done.

Description

Test design (TD) consists of creating and writing a collection of test cases, grouping them into a test suite(s), for testing a piece of software. It’s important to analyse what must be tested and define the test conditions. These test conditions must be converted into test cases using test data. Test design techniques can be broken up into three main categories, specification-based (also known as black-box) techniques, structure-based (also known as white-box) techniques, and experience-based techniques. These are generally considered either static or dynamic.

What is Test Design? When to create Test Design?	Qualified	Test design is a process that describes “how” testing should be done. It includes processes for the identifying test cases by enumerating steps of the defined test conditions.
Software Testing Techniques with Test Case Design Examples	Qualified	Software Testing Techniques help you design better test cases. Since exhaustive testing is not possible; Manual Testing Techniques help reduce the number of test cases to be executed while increasing test coverage.
Making use of test design techniques to save QA Engineers' time	Qualified	Testing is an important step in developing software that is useful, usable, and, ultimately, successful. Quality assurance (QA) engineers are a critical part of the testing process.
Test design	Qualified	A test condition is a statement about the test object. Test conditions can be stated for any part of a component or system that could be verified: functions, transactions, features, quality attributes or structural elements.
