What is structural testing?




Q: What is structural testing?

A: Structural testing is white box testing, not black box testing, since black boxes are considered opaque and do not permit visibility into the code.

Structural testing is also known as clear box testing, also known as glass box testing.

Structural testing is a way to test software with knowledge of the internal workings of the code being tested.
