?
Normal Data
Normal, valid data that the system should be working with that you’d expect it to accept.
1 of 7
Erroneous Data
This is data that should cause the system to tell the user that there is a problem with the data they entered, causing an error. For example not adding an “@” symbol to the email address on a signup form.
2 of 7
Extreme Data
Data at the boundary between normal data and invalid data, very close to being invalid. The system should accept the extreme data, at the limit of what should be accepted. E.g maximum character limit, lowest or highest in a range.

A single entity may be associated with many instances of another entity E.g Library member -> Many fines
5 of 7
