Again, tests do not prove absence of unknown bugs.

Incorrect. A white box test, tests every permutation of the code, and
reveals all possible outcomes.

Um, noooooo ... that is impossible, unless you have an infinite amount of time to wait for your tests to complete.

Covering every statement is *very* different from covering every possible state, and only the latter guarantees correctness. Tell me, how many states does your program have? How soon are you expecting the universe to collapse?

Cheers,

Paul
