Fuzz testing

Fuzz testing is like playing a game where you ask a computer to do things in a funny way. Just like how you might try to make your friends laugh by making silly faces or saying silly words, fuzz testing tries to make the computer laugh by making it do things it wasn't expecting.

For example, if you were playing a game where you throw a ball, you might try throwing it really high, or really low, or really far to see if it still works. Fuzz testing does the same thing to computer programs. It sends them funny messages or data, like words that are spelled wrong, or numbers that are too big or too small. It does this to see if the program can handle these unexpected things and keep working properly.

The goal of fuzz testing is to find problems or bugs in the computer program. Just like how you might notice if your friend doesn't laugh at a silly face you make, fuzz testing tries to notice when the computer program isn't working as it should. By finding these problems, the programmers can fix them and make the program work better.
