What data does the feature expect
A user can enter three pieces of information in the
Find dialog box:
- The search can be case sensitive or insensitive, depending on whether the
Case Sensitive check box is checked or unchecked.
- The search can be forward or backward, depending on whether the
Down or
Up option button is selected.
- The search can be for any combination of characters, depending on the value entered in the
Find What text box.
Create meaningful data combinations
To organize this information, it is helpful to construct a table that lists the possible combinations of inputs. From this list, you can then decide which combinations are meaningful and should be tested. A partial table for the
Find dialog box is shown below:
