Imagine you are a QA engineer working on a critical software project. The project follows a standard Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) comprising phases such as requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Your task is to plan and execute a comprehensive testing strategy that incorporates both white box and black box testing methodologies. 1. Define the key objectives and goals of software testing within the context of the SDLC. 2. Explain the significance of white box testing in ensuring the quality of the software. Provide examples of scenarios where white box testing would be particularly beneficial. 3. Discuss the importance of black box testing in the overall testing process. Highlight situations where black box testing is more appropriate than white box testing. 4. Propose a testing plan that integrates both white box and black box testing techniques. Include specific test cases and scenarios for each testing methodology. 5. Explore the challenges and limitations associated with white box and black box testing. Suggest strategies for overcoming these challenges. 6. Discuss how your testing strategy aligns with the various phases of the SDLC. Explain the role of testing in each phase and how it contributes to the overall success of the software project. 7. Reflect on the potential impact of your testing strategy on the quality, reliability, and maintainability of the software
