Sažetak	Equivalence partitioning divides input domains into equivalence classes—sets of inputs expected to behave identically—then selects test cases from each class. Introduced by Myers (1979), this technique reduces test cases while maintaining effectiveness. Boundary value analysis (BVA) complements partitioning by testing values at partition boundaries where failures often occur.	Defect prediction models forecast the likelihood of software faults in code modules using statistical or machine learning approaches. Pioneered by Ostrand, Weyuker, and Bell (2005), these models correlate code metrics (complexity, churn, coupling) with historical defect data to identify high-risk components. Organizations use predictions to allocate testing resources, guide code review, and prioritize refactoring.
