Normalization and SE Testing

1. The document discusses various database normalization forms including 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, BCNF and 4NF. It also discusses topics like dependency preservation and functional dependencies. 2. The second document discusses different types of software testing including white-box testing, black-box testing, unit testing, integration testing, system testing, acceptance testing and regression testing. It provides examples of what each type tests and when each is performed. 3. Both documents discuss technical topics in databases and software engineering, comparing and contrasting normal forms, dependencies, and various testing techniques like white-box vs black-box.
