Which of the following are generic risk factors that should be considered by the test analyst? A. Technology factors such as complexity and availability of tools B. Potential conflicts between stakeholders C. Large number of defects found with the reliability of the software D. Large number of defects found with the usability of previous versions E. Availability of documentation from legacy systems to be used to verify the accuracy of computations F. Budgetary restrictions on the project G. High change rates of the business use cases

Which of the following statements about condition coverage is true? A. It requires setting each atomic condition to true and false, but does not require the resulting decision to be tested with both true and false outcomes B. It requires setting each atomic condition to true, false and requires the resulting decision to be tested with both true and false outcomes C. It requires evaluating the decision with both true and false outcomes, regardless of the atomic conditions D. It provides more thorough coverage than decision coverage

You are testing a photo-enforcement system for traffic control in an intersection. The requirements state that a photo shall be taken if the signal light is red (RED) or the car is speeding (SPEED) and if the front wheels of the car are over the line marking the beginning of the intersection (WHEELS). Consider these sets of values 1. RED + SPEED + WHEELS 2. RED + SPEED + not WHEELS 3. RED + not SPEED + WHEELS 4. RED + not SPEED + not WHEELS 5. not RED + SPEED + WHEELS 6. not RED + SPEED + not WHEELS 7. not RED + not SPEED + WHEELS 8. not RED + not SPEED + not WHEELS Given this information, which sets of values provide the minimum tests to achieve 100% path coverage? A. 2, 3 B. 3, 4, 5, 7 C. 1, 3, 8 D. 1
