I am learning software testing techniques on internet.I want to know that what is the difference between white box,black box and grey box testing technique? Do a tester always needs to test the application using more than one technique? And in which type of testing do we check the overall functionality of application?Â
Want to know about application testing techniques
Black, white and gray box tests provide different approaches for the security of Web applications. But let's see the advantages and disadvantages between the three of them.
Black box testing refers to testing a system without having specific knowledge to the internal workings of the system, no access to the source code, and no knowledge of the architecture.
White box testing refers to testing a system with full knowledge and access to all source code and architecture documents.
Gray box testing is about testing a system while having at least some knowledge of the internals of a system.
