+00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,969

+So let's look at how this will work with an example.

+

+2

+00:00:02,969 --> 00:00:06,210

+I'm going to use this simple program that takes two inputs. The

+

+3

+00:00:06,210 --> 00:00:08,790

+first input is a string, str, and the second one is

+

+4

+00:00:08,790 --> 00:00:11,575

+an integer, size. And the problem is called split. And as

+

+5

+00:00:11,575 --> 00:00:14,363

+the name says what it does is to take this string,

+

+6

+00:00:14,363 --> 00:00:17,491

+str, and split it into sub string, into chunks of size

+

+7

+00:00:17,491 --> 00:00:21,550

+characters each. So how do we identify some possible partitions for

+

+8

+00:00:21,550 --> 00:00:25,620

+this program? If we consider the input size, we can identify

+

+9

+00:00:25,620 --> 00:00:29,630

+three neutral partitions which are size less than 0. For example,

+

+10

+00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:32,259

+we want to test how the program behaves. But if we pass an

+

+11

+00:00:32,259 --> 00:00:36,100

+incorrect size, size equal to 0, which is also a partition. In

+

+12

+00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:39,390

+this case, a partition with a single element. And the third case

+

+13

+00:00:39,390 --> 00:00:42,540

+is size greater than 0, which I will consider to be

+

+14

+00:00:42,540 --> 00:00:44,960

+kind of the standard case. And actually let me do a, you

+

+15

+00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,220

+know, slight aggression so when I was talking about designer bias. So

+

+16

+00:00:48,220 --> 00:00:50,630

+this is a case in which designer bias might not make you

+

+17

+00:00:50,630 --> 00:00:53,050

+think of using size less than 0 because you read the

+

+18

+00:00:53,050 --> 00:00:56,210

+spec. And you sort of assume that the size will be positive.

+

+19

+00:00:56,210 --> 00:00:58,556

+Whereas the right thing to do when we test is to consider

+

+20

+00:00:58,556 --> 00:01:01,700

+the complete domain rather than just parts of it. So now let's

+

+21

+00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:04,760

+look at string, str, and let's see what kind of sub

+

+22

+00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,538

+domains we could identify for this

+

+23

+00:01:06,538 --> 00:01:08,670

+parameter. And notice another important aspect

+

+24

+00:01:08,670 --> 00:01:12,290

+here is that we treat each different part of the input independently,

+

+25

+00:01:12,290 --> 00:01:15,760

+which also helps breaking down the problem. One interesting sub domain is

+

+26

+00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,980

+the domain that includes all the strings whose length is less than

+

+27

+00:01:18,980 --> 00:01:22,310

+size. So all the strings that will not be displayed. Another subdomain

+

+28

+00:01:22,310 --> 00:01:25,000

+is all the strings with length which is between the value of

+

+29

+00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,350

+size and twice the value of size. A third subdomain is the one

+

+30

+00:01:28,350 --> 00:01:31,820

+including all the strings whose length is greater than twice the value

+

+31

+00:01:31,820 --> 00:01:35,140

+of size. And we can continue and identify more and more subdomain.

+

+32

+00:01:35,140 --> 00:01:38,350

+The key thing here is that we have to do that based

+

+33

+00:01:38,350 --> 00:01:41,180

+on the domain. So we need to adapt what we just did here

+

+34

+00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:44,620

+based on, on the specific domain involved and on the type

+

+35

+00:01:44,620 --> 00:01:47,190

+of data in this domain. So at this point we said that

+

+36

+00:01:47,190 --> 00:01:49,630

+there were two steps. One was to identify the subdomains and

+

+37

+00:01:49,630 --> 00:01:52,990

+the second one was to pick values in this subdomain. The values

+

+38

+00:01:52,990 --> 00:01:55,320

+that we'll actually use for the testing. In this case, we

+

+39

+00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,218

+do not want to just pick any value. Rather we want to

+

+40

+00:01:58,218 --> 00:01:59,871

+pick values that are particularly

+

+41

+00:01:59,871 --> 00:02:02,710

+interesting, particularly representative. So what does

+

+42

+00:02:02,710 --> 00:02:05,800

+that mean? Well, we're going to do that based on an intuitive idea.
