   Loop Testing
Loops are
fundamental to many algorithms. Loops can be categorized as, define
loops as simple, concatenated, nested, and unstructured. Loops can be
defined in many ways.
Examples:

                                                         Fig 3.5: Different types of Loops

To test the loops, following guidelines may be followed:
•   Simple Loops of size n: 
o   Skip loop entirely 
o   Only one pass through the loop 
o   Two passes through the loop 
o   m passes through loop where m<n. 
o   (n-1), n, and (n+1) passes through the loop. This helps in testing the boundary of the loops.
