White box testing, clear box testing, glass box testing or structural testing is used in computer programming, software engineering and software testing to check that the outputs of a program, given certain inputs, conform to the structural specification of the program.
The term white box (or glass box) indicates that testing is done with a knowledge of the code used to execute certain functionality.
For this reason, a programmer is usually required to perform white box tests.

 White box (computer hardware) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some white box machines built by small systems builders, and all homebuilt systems do not come with an operating system, so the user must install their own.
Purchasers of white box systems supplied with an operating system should check the validity of any software installed carefully, since a legitimate copy of a commercial OS repesents a surprising fraction of the cost of manufacturing such a system, and there is a thriving trade in forged copies of operating system discs.
While some people purchase white box systems because they prefer to choose their parts or because it's cheaper, others do this because they want to use their own operating system rather than a pre-bundled OS such as Windows or Mac OS X.

 13. What is black box/white box testing?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
White-box test design allows one to peek inside the "box", and it focuses specifically on using internal knowledge of the software to guide the selection of test data.
It is important to understand that these methods are used during the test design phase, and their influence is hard to see in the tests once they're implemented.
Unit testing is usually associated with structural test design, but this is because testers usually don't have well-defined requirements at the unit level to validate.
