Not sure if D really understands the system well enough.

A is definitely biased since they wrote the requirements.

Surprised that people think D is the best choice!

D has the highest test independence for sure.

Yeah, but I wonder if the permanent programmer could still be independent enough since they only reviewed the code and didn't write it.

I feel like the business analyst would be too biased since they wrote the original requirements. That seems like a conflict of interest.

I'm not so sure about that. I remember a practice question where the permanent tester had a good balance of knowledge and independence.

I think the contract tester might have the highest level of independence since they haven't been involved with the organization before.

This is a tricky one, but I think I can figure it out. I'll need to really think through the trade-offs around measurement to determine the right response.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about the assumptions for the t-test here. I should double-check that the data meets the requirements before jumping into the analysis.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure which module I should use. I know there are a few different Azure-related modules, but I'm not sure which one is specific to Azure Virtual Desktop. I'll have to review the module documentation to make sure I get this right.

I think D is the correct answer. A contract tester who has never worked for the organization before would have the most unbiased perspective and the highest level of test independence.

True, but the contract tester would have no prior knowledge or bias towards the system.
PA

But wouldn't a permanent tester who found most defects in the original system also be independent?

I agree, D makes sense. A contract tester would have fresh eyes.
AB

D, definitely. A contract tester who's never worked with the organization before? That's like a fresh pair of eyes, no baggage. Unless they're a time-traveling tester from the future, in which case they'd have the highest level of independence.

B) A permanent programmer who reviewed some of the new code, but has not written any of it.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I guess I'd have to go with B. A permanent programmer who reviewed some of the new code, but has not written any of it, would be more independent than a business analyst who wrote the original requirements.
EL

I disagree, I think C is the right answer. A permanent tester who found most defects in the original system would have the deepest understanding of the system and would be able to test it more thoroughly.
LU

I think the correct answer is D. A contract tester who has never worked for the organization before would have the highest level of test independence, as they would not have any preconceived notions or biases towards the system.

I see your point. It's important to consider the level of independence when assembling a test team for system enhancements.
AL

That's true, but I think the contract tester would still have more independence since they are completely new to the organization.
