 ## Reading List
 
-> [!TIP]
-> If you have some great external resources, you might want to create an external reading list for trainees to go through before the session.

-> [!TIP]
-> Additionally, or instead of, you may wish to write your own pre-reading content. Be sure to keep it clear, consice, related to the learning goals - and think about using images and diagrams to make it easier to digest.

 ## Session Materials
 
-> [!TIP]
-> Previously used slides, docs or any other materials that future mentors could get value from should be listed here. If we don't have any (yet), this section can be removed.

-
-## Exercises
-
-> [!TIP]
-> Exercises might appear inside the Session Outline section if they are tightly integrated into the flow of the session. If you have more like a library of exercises that should be worked through in order, then you could also list them in a separate section here.

-## Optional Exercises
-
-> [!TIP]
-> If you have some extra exercises that trainees can complete if they finish the rest, or want to push themselves, include them in this optional section.
+In this session, we will learn the fundamentals of test design and structured test case writing. We will explore the difference between heuristics and oracles, understand the key components of a test case, and compare good versus bad examples. The session also introduces test data management and two essential black-box test design techniques: Equivalence Partitioning and Boundary Value Analysis. Trainees will apply these techniques in practical exercises to strengthen their analytical thinking and test design skills.
