-\textbf{hier iets over waarom deze partities relevant zijn! Waarom odd en
-even number of bits flipped bijv interessant?}
+These partitions were chosen since they correspond to key parts of the TCP
+specification.
+
+TCP segments are send over a TCP connection from a \emph{source} to a \emph{destination port}. Therefore segments which are received that have a
+source or destination port set to an incorrect value should not be regarded
+as segments belonging to the connection by the SUT.
+
+TCP uses a \emph{checksum} to catch any error introduced in headers, when this
+checksum does not match the actual computed checksum the SUT should
+disregard the received segment.
+
+The TCP checksum is also an inherently weak one, as it is simply the
+bitwise negation of the addition, in ones complement arithmetic,
+of all 16 bit words in the header and data of the segment (excluding the
+checksum itself). Therefore any \emph{bit error} where the ones complement value
+of one word
+increases by one, and the value of another decreases by one, is undetected.
+The SUT should exhibit the same behavior and accept packets where these type
+of bit errors occur.
+
+TCP guarantees that segments are delivered \emph{in order}
+,even when they are received
+out of order and that missing segments are resend. The SUT should
+exhibit the same behavior. If segments are received out of order it should
+either reassemble them when the missing packet has arrived or request them to
+be resend when the Missing segments should be re-requested (by ACK-ing
+the correct sequence number).

Partitions 2 to 6 are tested using pairwise testing to keep the number of test
cases feasible. The pairs are then all *except some where it does not make sense
to do so) tested with the different request sizes of partition 1.
-This is expressed in Table~\ref{table:testpairs}.
+This is expressed in Table~\ref{table:testpairs}. In this table the first five
+columns represent the different options for the partitions 2 to 6 of the above
+enumeration. The last four columns are the different number segments as
+described in the partition 1 of the above enumeration. These cells identify
+individual test cases by a number. An \xmark in the cell indicates that this
+test case can not be created as it is not possible with that number of segments
+(eg. sending segments out of order when the number of segments is 1).

\caption{Combinations of test cases}
As always, $100\%$ completeness is not feasible, therefore test cases are
carefully selected to cover the most interesting parts of the TCP specification
-to ensure a test suite.
+to ensure a complete but feasible test suite.
+
+To further increase the coverage of the test suites tests are randomized. The
+tests which test the handling of \emph{bit errors}, changes in the \emph{packet
+order} and \emph{dropped packets} randomize where they introduce an error. The
+test suite runs these tests multiple times to increase the likelihood that they
+discover a fault which is only present when an error occurs in a certain
+position.
To further decrease the number of tests needed test cases are divided into
equivalence partitions and the combination of cases as described in
