Software Verification Vs Validation

Verification is a rigorous mathematical demonstration that source code conforms to its specifications.

Validation is the process of evaluating the software at the end of the software development process to determine compliance with the requirements.

Boehm's Defenition follows 

Verification: " Are we building the product right ? "

Validation : " Are we building the right Product ? " 

White Box Testing or Glass Box Testing

White-box testing (also known as clear box testing, glass box testing, transparent box testing, and structural testing) is a method of testing software that tests internal structures or workings of an application.

UGC-NET IN OBJECTIVE MODE FROM JUNE, 2012 ONWARDS

1. The UGC-NET will be conducted in objective mode from June 2012 onwards. The Test will consist of three papers. All the three papers will consist of only objective type questions and will be held on the day of Examination in two separate sessions as under:             Session Paper Number of Questions Marks Duration First I 60 out of which 50 questions are to be attempted 50x2 = 100 1¼ Hours (09.30 a.m. to 10.45 a.m.) First II 50 questions all of which are compulsory 50x2 = 100 1¼ Hours (10.45 a.m. to 12.00 Noon.) Second III 75 questions all of which are compulsory 75x2 = 150 2½ Hours (01.30 p.m. to 04.00 p.m.)     2. The candidates are required to obtain minimum marks separately in Paper-I, Paper-II and Paper-III as given below:           Category Minimum marks (%) to be obtained Paper-I Paper-II Paper-III General 40 (40%) 40 (40%) 75 (50%) OBC 35 (35%) 35 (35%) 67.5 (45%) rounded off to 68 PH/VH/SC/ST 35 (35%) 35 (35%) 60 (40%)       Only such candidates who obtain the minimum required marks in each Paper, separately, as mentioned above, will be considered for final preparation of result. However, the final qualifying criteria for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) and eligibility for Lectureship shall be decided by UGC before declaration of result.     3. The syllabus of Paper-I, Paper-II and Paper-III will remain the same.     4. The candidates will be allowed to carry the carbon printout of OMR Response Sheets with them on conclusion of the examination.     5. There will be no negative marking. courtesy : www.ugc.ac.in
