COURSE OUTCOMES (CO)
CO1: Identify a model for testing and levels of bugs and its
consequences
CO2: Examine basic testing techniques of flow
graphs.
CO3: Compare nice and ugly domains with their
testability.
CO4: Apply reduction procedures to a control flow
graph and Make use of decision tables in test case design
CO5: Apply graph matrix techniques to solve flow graphs and
Test the software using state graphs
