Explanation
Boundary value testing focuses on testing at and immediately adjacent to the boundaries of equivalence partitions. This includes the boundary value itself, the smallest value just above it, and the largest value just below it. It is not the same as equivalence partitioning (which divides inputs into classes), does not test combinations of inputs (that's pair-wise testing), and is a black-box technique not specific to white-box testing.
