What is Decision table in software testing?

The techniques of equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis are often applied to specific situations or inputs. However, if different combinations of inputs result in different actions being taken, this can be more difficult to show using equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis, which tend to be more focused on the user interface. The other two specification-based software testing techniques, decision tables and state transition testing are more focused on business logic or business rules.
A decision table is a good way to deal with combinations of things (e.g. inputs). This technique is sometimes also referred to as a ’cause-effect’ table. The reason for this is that there is an associated logic diagramming technique called ’cause-effect graphing’ which was sometimes used to help derive the decision table (Myers describes this as a combinatorial logic network [Myers, 1979]). However, most people find it more useful just to use the table described in [Copeland, 2003].
Decision tables provide a systematic way of stating complex business rules, which is useful for developers as well as for testers.
Decision tables can be used in test design whether or not they are used in specifications, as they help testers explore the effects of combinations of different inputs and other software states that must correctly implement business rules.
It helps the developers to do a better job can also lead to better relationships with them. Testing combinations can be a challenge, as the number of combinations can often be huge. Testing all combinations may be impractical if not impossible. We have to be satisfied with testing just a small subset of combinations but making the choice of which combinations to test and which to leave out is also important. If you do not have a systematic way of selecting combinations, an arbitrary subset will be used and this may well result in an ineffective test effort.
How to Use decision tables for test designing?
The first task is to identify a suitable function or subsystem which reacts according to a combination of inputs or events. The system should not contain too many inputs otherwise the number of combinations will become unmanageable. It is better to deal with large numbers of conditions by dividing them into subsets and dealing with the subsets one at a time. Once you have identified the aspects that need to be combined, then you put them into a table listing all the combinations of True and False for each of the aspects.
