Hi,
although code inspection and walkthroughs are done, white box testing is
still a must.
During code inspection, it is too easy to loose specifications/requirements.
Also walktrhough
are normally performed for sunny day scenarios and maybe some general error
scenarios.
The vast vajority of code is still written for error scenarios with
walkthrough do not always
covers.

With all the best CI and walktrough, white box testing is still required.

Cheers,
JP
