<p>Achieving high branch coverage often involves writing negative test variations, that is, variations where the software is supposed to fail in some way, in addition to the usual positive test variations, which test intended usage.  An example of a negative variation would be calling a <a href="page.php?w=Function_%28computer_science%29">function</a> with illegal parameters.  There is a limit to the branch coverage that can be achieved even with negative variations, however, as some branches may only be used for handling of errors that are beyond</p><p>
