Wait, isn't preventing defects part of testing too?

I might be overthinking this, but I believe debugging is more about fixing issues rather than an objective of testing itself.

I feel like gaining confidence in quality is definitely an objective, but I can't recall if debugging fits in there.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think preventing defects is more of a goal than an objective of testing.

I think the objective of testing is mostly about finding defects, but I'm not sure if debugging is considered an objective.

I'm pretty confident that the answer is D. Debugging defects is not a testing objective, it's more of a development activity. The other options - finding defects, gaining confidence, and preventing defects - are all core testing objectives.

Okay, I think I've got this. The testing objective that is not listed here is debugging defects. The other options - finding defects, gaining confidence, and preventing defects - are all key testing objectives, but debugging is more of a development task, not a testing objective.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the testing objectives generally include finding defects, gaining confidence in quality, and preventing defects, but I'm not sure which one is the odd one out here.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. I'm going to carefully read through the options and think about which one is not a testing objective.

I'm going to have to go with D on this one. Debugging is like telling the developer 'Here, you fix this mess!' and that's not what testing is all about.

D has got to be the right answer. Debugging is something developers do, not testers. We just report the bugs, we don't fix them!

I'm going with C. Preventing defects is more of a development objective, not a testing one. Testing is about finding, not preventing, defects.
