Positive Testing

What is Positive Testing?

Positive testing verifies that the application behaves correctly when everything goes right—valid inputs, expected sequences, supported conditions—confirming that the core functionality delivers the intended result. It establishes the essential baseline of confidence: if the primary, correct-usage path is broken, nothing else matters. Positive testing is the counterpart to negative testing, which probes invalid input and error handling. A complete suite covers both, and recording the correct happy-path flow is a fast way to lock in that positive baseline before layering on edge cases.
