Path Coverage
Path Coverage is a software testing technique that aims to ensure that all possible paths through a program's code are executed at least once. This method helps identify potential errors and logical flaws by examining the flow of control within the program. By covering various paths, testers can gain confidence that the software behaves as expected under different conditions.
In Path Coverage, each unique route through the code is analyzed, which includes different branches and loops. This approach is more comprehensive than simple Statement Coverage or Branch Coverage, as it focuses on the actual execution paths rather than just individual statements or decision points.
