Topic #: 1

[All CTAL Questions]

A software company developed a software application for a Life Insurance Company. The testers of the software company were given the release to test. The software application calculates the annual life insurance cost based on customers' age. Life insurance cost is as follows per year;

# Age 18 or less: US $ 300

# Age over 18 or less than 70: US $ 500

# Person has to be at least 1 year old to purchase insurance

If a customer enters any other age, the software prints an error message. The Application accepts only positive integer values (no decimals). Given above scenario, how many valid test cases at minimum can you derive using equivalence partitioning?

Okay, let me see. I know there are laws around privacy and personal rights, so I'm not sure if the security can just demand to see our stuff. I'll have to weigh the pros and cons carefully before answering.

Okay, let's see here. The strtr() function replaces all occurrences of the characters in the first argument with the corresponding characters in the second argument. So, 'ae' will be replaced with 'ea'. I think the answer is B.

This is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure which factors are most important in making this decision. I'll need to review my notes and think it through step-by-step to make sure I get the right answer.
