Can you please describe this statement "If you can model well, you can test well"? -Soma
@Soma: Simple answer to your question is if you are giving the effort to create a good testing model with good product understanding, knowing about corner cases, tools that can help reduce your effort, and taking care of a few other points mentioned by Ajay here. you can test well because our testing would be based on what we modeled.
Thanks
