State Transition Testing Technique:
Steps for using state transition testing are:
STEP 1: Understand the various states that the system , user, or object can be in, including the initial and final states. Examples of states can be 'User raising a purchase order' or 'leave request is accepted'. State are represented as,
STEP 2: Identify transitions, events, conditions, and actions that can and can't apply in each state.
STEP 3: Use a graph or table to model the system. This graph or table also serves as an oracle to predict correct system behavior along with a requirement specification.
STEP 4: For each event and condition (i.e each transition) verify that the correct action and next state occurs.
STEP 5: Create test cases in such a way that all states are visited at least once, all events are triggered at least once and all paths are executed at least once. (i.e all transitions in the system are tested at least once).
