Testing object-oriented software is a significant topic in its own right, and this chapter presents the user with the essential underlying test techniques: testing in class context, and inheritance testing. As in the previous chapters, a worked example is used to introduce the reader to the concepts, which are then subsequently discussed in more detail. The chapter then summarises some more advanced techniques; state-based testing, UML-based testing, and built-in testing. Some of the limitations are examined through the introduction of faults into the working code.
