Animal testing has been used for centuries to improve the lives of humans since 322 B.C. by greek and roman physicians‚ Aristotle and Erasistratus.

White-Box Testing White-box testing is a verification technique software engineers can use to examine if their code works as expected. In this chapter‚ we will explain the following: • a method for writing a set of white-box test cases that exercise the paths in the code • the use of equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis to manage the number of test cases that need to be written and to examine error-prone/extreme “corner” test cases • how to measure how thoroughly the test

The Evils of Animal Testing Imagine your pet‚ whether it’s a dog‚ cat‚ bird‚ or rodent‚ huddled in the corner of a small cage‚ eyes wide with fear‚ waiting for the next routine experiment to be performed on it.

use of sound is in the area of science called Nondestructive testing‚ or NDT. Ultrasonic testing (UT) has been practiced for many decades. Initial rapid developments in instrumentation encouraged by the technological advances from the 1950’s continue today. Through the 1980’s and continuing through the present‚ computers have provided technicians with smaller and more rugged instruments with greater capabilities. NDT ultrasonic Testing uses high frequency sound energy to conduct examinations and

only perhaps‚ to the bitter abortion debate. For decades the value of animal research has been grossly overrated. Although researchers have depended on animal test data to achieve medical advances‚ there should be other means of research because testing on animals is cruel‚ inhumane‚ and often unnecessary. Perhaps it would be more beneficial and humane to test on violent criminals such as rapists‚ murderers‚ and others on death row. The American Medical Association believes that research involving

Is the death of one worth the safety of another? Many would say no. The testing of animals is extremely unfortunate‚ but also necessary. Due to the fact that animals are perfect test subjects‚ they have helped find cures for many diseases and have made products safer for not only human use but animals as well. According to the California Biomedical Research Association‚ almost every medical breakthrough in human and animal health has been through a direct result of animal research for over a hundred
