Explain boundary value analysis in software testing.
BVA (Boundary Value Analysis) is a black box software testing technique that uses boundary values to create test cases. Input values near the boundary have a higher probability of error, so BVA is used to test boundary values. BVA includes values at the boundaries in the test cases. If the input falls within the boundary range, then the test is positive; if it falls outside, then it is negative. There are several types of values, including maximum or minimum, inside or outside edge, and typical or error values.
