not handling null conditions concept from the Object Oriented Software Engineering knowledge base

Next defect in an ordinary algorithm: not handling singleton or non-singleton conditions Up: defect in an ordinary algorithm Previous defect in an ordinary algorithm: incorrect logical conditions

not handling null conditions

subject fact

not handling null conditions has definition A common defect in which a program behaves abnormally when a null condition is encountered 2001-08-30 14:56:42.0
has testing strategy determine all possible null conditions and run test cases that would highlight any inappropriate behaviour
is a subtopic of 10.3 - Defects in Ordinary Algorithms
is a kind of defect in an ordinary algorithm

defect has example the absence of code to handle an exception 2001-08-30 14:55:12.0

problem has solution which will normally entail developing software, although you may decide that it is better to purchase software or to develop a non-software solution 2001-08-30 14:57:03.0
should be written as a simple problem statement in one or two sentences
