Test Design Techniques Homework

Create the equivalence class partitions and boundary value analysis for the following
requirements:

If one takes the train before 9:30 am or in the afternoon after 4:00 pm until 7:30 pm (the rush
hour), one must pay full fare.

A 10% saver ticket is available for trains between 9:30 am and 4:00 pm, and after 7:30 pm.

Solution:

Full fare 10%discount full fare 10% discount

6.00am_______________9.30am______________4.00pm____________7.30pm_____________6.00am

1. The equivalence class partition:

- [6.00 am - 9.30 am] – full fare;
- (9.30 am, 4.00 pm] – 10% discount;
- (4.00 pm, 7.30 pm] – full fare;
- (7.30 pm, 6.00 am) – 10% discount.
2. Boundary values:
- 5.59am; 6.00am; 7.30pm; 7.31 pm.
