ACARA 9-10 Digital Technologies: Test cases and choosing test data
Students learn what it means to validate a program and how to design test cases using normal, boundary, invalid and edge-case data that cover every branch and loop.
One content description (AC9TDI10P05, AC9TDI10P06) from the full ACARA Digital Technologies Years 9–10 — Testing and Validating Programs journey. All 15 modules below are in that journey too, with the same content — add just these to a class, or the whole strand.
