Is equivalence partitioning test technique is really worth anything?

Ah the joys of combinatorial math. As the other answers have implied, it's very easy for pretty much any technique to generate a massive number of test cases for any real-world application. ...

Equivalence partitioning for decimal number

Your understanding is incomplete and your example is misleading. Equivalence partitioning does not divide inputs into two categories only, e.g. valid and invalid. It can divide inputs into as many ...

Equivalence classes for password strength meter

The answer depends on perspective. If you want to only unit test this function, then you're on the right track with your example equivalence classes you have defined. Although, you are missing some. I'...

Is it possible to cover edge cases by using test design techniques

Yes, it is possible to use test design techniques to test edge and corner cases. Boundary Value Analysis (BVA) and Equivalence Partitioning (EP) are useful for testing input data to verify the output ...

Is equivalence partitioning test technique is really worth anything?

If for such simple code, I need 20 ECs, for an extensive system, the ECs will be an enormous number - rendering the EP test technique not very helpful. Am I, and all the SW test textbooks, overplaying ...

Does ECP and BVA only concern numeric values?

Equivalence Class Partitioning is usually demonstrated using numerical values since it is easier to understand and apply, but I don't see any reason not to extend it further to any values that are ...

Finding the correct partitions for testing digits

You will have three possible outputs: True: this will depend on both X and Y. You can pick boundary values for X => { -1, 0, 1 } and its associated values for Y. You do the same for Y => {-1, 0, 1}. ...
