**Notes: Decision Table Testing in Software Testing - Software Testing Tutorial #36** **Introduction:** - Decision Table Testing, also known as Cause-Effect Table Testing, a crucial black-box testing technique for scenarios with multiple conditions. **Example: The Registration Portal Scenario:** - A registration portal with three mandatory fields: Name, Email, and Address. - The goal is to test the portal's success and error messages based on input values. **Creating the Decision Table:** - Use tools like Excel or Confluence to create a Decision Table. - Three input fields: Name, Email, and Address, resulting in eight possible combinations. **Decision Table Breakdown:** - **Scenario 1:** Name (Y), Email (Y), Address (Y) - Success Message: User should receive a success message. - Error Message: None. - **Scenario 2:** Name (N), Email (Y), Address (Y) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Name missing." - **Scenario 3:** Name (Y), Email (N), Address (Y) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Email missing." - **Scenario 4:** Name (Y), Email (Y), Address (N) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Address missing." - **Scenario 5:** Name (N), Email (N), Address (Y) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Name and Email missing." - **Scenario 6:** Name (N), Email (Y), Address (N) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Name and Address missing." - **Scenario 7:** Name (Y), Email (N), Address (N) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Email and Address missing." - **Scenario 8:** Name (N), Email (N), Address (N) - Success Message: None. - Error Message: "Name, Email, and Address missing." **Executing the Tests:** - Each scenario represents a specific test case. - Test each scenario with corresponding inputs and verify expected outcomes. - Error message text should match business requirements or specifications.

I tried other channels, you explained this very well and now l understand thank you sir. Can you please do a tutorial on Collapsed DT🙏

[@kauserjaffari9790]

Hi Manish, greetings from Germany, amazing explanation can you elaborate how to reduce the test cases which has same output . Do you any example of collapsing the decision table thank you :)

[@sravansran2109]

hey kauser, in above example there are 3 conditions (name, email, address) then we conclude that there 8 possisble outputs (2^3=8), here 2 is sucessful message and error message (true/false)... In nutshell we can't reduce the output (test cases), for sure we need to test all the 8 testcases if it helpfull give me like..😊

[@ariana_1343]

How did you determine 8 columns are required?

[@stephanieprolixity]

@@sravansran2109 ​ So, you just put 2 ^ of the number of however many conditions are defined and that’s how you verify how many combinations your table should display to make sure you covered everything?

[@ismailolalekan8160]

Yes

Hi sir, is there any playlist in your channel for learning different chapters for ISTQB testing exam (foundation level). I want to appear for the ISTQB exam but not able to find any suitable content. Please comment if you can help. Thanks,

@@softwaretestingmentor Thanks sir this is really helpful. This is still valid for 2022 exams right ?

[@veliromn]

could you explain why 8 columns? There was no explanation for that...

[@simpledrawings3291]

Yes I was wondering the same thing. Please explain how you got the 8 columns?

[@sait5489]

There are 3 input conditions, Name, email, address, so there will be 2 power 3 . I.e 8columns will come. If there are 2 input conditions, 2 power 2 I.e 4 columns will come
