I'm not totally sure, but I think branch coverage is a type of white-box testing, not black-box. I'll need to double-check that. The other options seem a bit off to me.

Okay, I've got this. Branch coverage is about traversing each branch direction, while statement coverage just looks at executing each statement. And it's definitely not the same as condition coverage. I feel good about this one.

I'm pretty sure this is about branch coverage, which means testing each possible branch direction at least once. I think the key is to understand the difference between statement coverage and branch coverage.
