3. Range Check
A range check is commonly used when you are working with data which consists of numbers, currency or dates/times.
A range check allows you to set suitable boundaries:
Boundary | Description | Validation |
---|---|---|
Upper limit | The maximum price of any item in a shop is £100 | <=100 |
Lower limit | In a shop, you cannot sell a negative number of items, however you can sell no items | >=0 |
A range | to achieve a B grade you must score between 75% - 84% | >=75 AND <=84 |
