Topic #: 3

[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). How many test cases at minimum can you derive using both Boundary Value analysis and Equivalence partitioning to test the life insurance application?

I'm feeling confident about this one. The RQL syntax makes sense to me, and I think I can quickly identify the correct option that matches the query.

Okay, I know weather is important for an outdoor survey, and power lines could be a potential obstruction. But I'm a bit unsure about the other options like near-far effect and Fresnel zone. I'll have to review those concepts.

I think making area 1 a stub might restrict the routes too much since we want to include EIGRP routes.
