Calculation engines form the heart of financial applications, as the results are very sensitive to the business and can cause severe damage if wrong. But controllability and observability of these calculations are low. In order to test these calculations, more robust and sophisticated methods are required. In this thesis, input space partitioning, along with automation, were applied with the help of tools. Case studies were conducted to validate the effectiveness of this approach. Finally, a framework is recommended to test the calculation engines.en-USCalculation enginesInput space partitioning [ISP]Category Partition Method [CPM]Base choice [Bc]Coverage criteriaTest AutomationThesis
