A software component has the code shown below:
Program BiggestA, Biggest: Integer Begin Read A Biggest = 10 While A > 0 Do If A > Biggest Then Biggest = A Endif Read A Enddo End
The component has exit criteria for component testing that include 100% statement coverage. Which of the following test cases will satisfy this criterion?

Definitely, option B won't hit all statements.

Wait, does 100% statement coverage really mean all paths?
ED

Nah, option D covers all the branches too.
TU

I think option C is the best choice here.

The initial value of Biggest is set to 10.

I’m confused about which test cases actually execute the "If" statement. I need to double-check how many times each option reads A.
JA

I feel like we practiced a similar question, and I think option D could also work because it tests the condition where A is greater than Biggest.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think option C might cover all the statements since it includes a value greater than 10.

I remember we discussed statement coverage and how we need to execute every line of code at least once.

Easy peasy! The test cases that will satisfy the coverage requirement are the ones that hit the different branches of the conditional statement and the loop. I'd go with option C.

Okay, I think I've got it. The key is to cover all the different paths through the code, including the case where the input value is greater than the current biggest value.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the code. I'll need to spend some time understanding how the program works before I can decide on the test cases.

This looks like a pretty straightforward question. I'll need to carefully trace the logic of the code to determine which test cases will satisfy the 100% statement coverage requirement.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the details of vSphere Namespaces. Let me think this through carefully.
NI

I think the answer is A) 0 because it covers all the statements in the code.
AL

Haha, this code looks like it was written by a programmer who just discovered the 'While' loop. But I'd say option C is the way to go.
SH

Option C includes all the necessary values for testing this code.
WA
Walton

I think option C is the best test case scenario for this code.
CR
Cruz

Yeah, option C seems to be the most comprehensive choice.
BE
Bev

I agree, option C covers all the possibilities.
SY

I'm not sure, but I think both C) and D) could satisfy the criteria.
TI

I'm going with C, 10, 5, 0. It's the most comprehensive test case that checks the program's behavior for different input values.
RA
Raelene

I agree, but C) 10, 5, 0 provides more thorough testing with additional input values.
GE
Geoffrey
2 years ago
I think B) 10, 0 would also cover all the statements in the code.
MA
Matthew

I disagree, I believe the answer is D) 10, 11, 0.
JU
Junita
2 years ago
I think the answer is C) 10, 5, 0.
ST

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. Both seem to cover all the statements, but C might be a bit more thorough in testing the different scenarios.
EV
Eve

I agree, C seems like a more thorough test case.
IL
Ilene

I think C covers more scenarios, so it might be the better choice.
TR
Tresa

D, 10, 11, 0 looks good to me. It covers all the different conditions, including the edge case where the input is greater than the current biggest value.
PA
Pauline

I think option B, 10, 0, is the answer. It hits all the statements in the code and satisfies the 100% statement coverage.
ID
Idella

I believe option D is incorrect, as it includes a value that is not greater than 10.
RE
Remedios

I think option C might also work, as it includes more values to test.
WE

I agree, option B covers all the statements in the code.
