Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is an Equivalence Partition (also known as an Equivalence class)?
A
A set of test cases for testing classes of objects
B
An input or output range of values such that only one value in the range becomes a test case
C
An input or output range of values such that each value in the range becomes a test case
D
An input or output range of values such that every tenth value in the range becomes a test case.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: The answer of the given question is None of the above. An input or output range of values such that only one value in the range becomes a test case is known an Equivalence Partition.

Detailed explanation-2: -An equivalence class is the name that we give to the subset of S which includes all elements that are equivalent to each other. “Equivalent” is dependent on a specified relationship, called an equivalence relation. If there’s an equivalence relation between any two elements, they’re called equivalent.

Detailed explanation-3: -Equivalence Classes form a partition (idea of Theorem 6.3. 3) The overall idea in this section is that given an equivalence relation on set A, the collection of equivalence classes forms a partition of set A, (Theorem 6.3. 3).
