A Comparative Study On Black-Box Testing With Open Source Applications

Although a lot of researches have been carried out to evaluate efficiency and effectiveness of different testing techniques there is still lacking of experimental work on functional testing, particularly for black-box testing on open-source software. In this work, four black-box testing techniques were chosen to test on two open source applications. The results have confirmed some conclusions which were obtained on closed-source software. In addition, a few new observations have also been obtained.
