(i) is true, reviews catch defects earlier than static analysis usually does.
RA

Wait, can dynamic techniques really only be used after code is ready? That seems off.
MA

(ii) is spot on, walkthroughs do need code while static analysis doesn't.

I disagree with (iv), dynamic techniques are often used after static ones.

I think (iii) is definitely true, informal reviews can cover both code and specs.
WI

I thought dynamic techniques are used after static techniques, but I might be mixing that up with another practice question.
MA

I definitely recall that informal reviews can be done on both code and specifications, so that part seems clear to me.

I think walkthroughs do need code, but I’m a bit confused about whether static analysis needs code or not.

I remember studying that reviews can catch defects earlier than static analysis, but I'm not sure about the specifics of how they compare.
PH

This is a tough one. I'm not entirely sure about the relationship between reviews and static analysis. I'll have to guess on a few of these.
CH
Chun 1 year ago
Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the difference between static and dynamic techniques. I'll need to review my notes to make sure I understand that properly before answering.
EM

This question looks tricky, but I think I can handle it. I'll start by carefully reading each statement and considering whether it's true or false.
OL
Olen 1 year ago
Okay, I've got a strategy. I'll go through each statement and think about what I know about reviews, static analysis, and dynamic techniques. That should help me identify the true statements.
AU

Okay, I've got a few ideas here. Virtual private cloud, distributed cache service, and elastic load balancing all seem like they could be monitored in a cloud environment. I'll mark those down as my choices.
NO

I feel like reviewing the success plan and managing escalations are solid choices based on what we've learned.

I'm pretty sure the default objects are Computer and User, since those are the basic building blocks of an Active Directory domain.

This seems like a tricky question, but I think the key is to find a way to easily identify and delete the data for a specific individual upon request. Option A looks like the simplest approach, using a unique identifier to delete all their data.

Hold on, is this a trick question? If I had a nickel for every time a certification exam tried to stump me with 'technically correct but not the whole truth' answers, I'd be sipping margaritas on a beach right now.

Yeah, and walkthroughs require code but static analysis does not require code.
SI

I think it's A because defects are likely to be found earlier in the development process by using reviews.

A) (i), (ii), (vi).
KR

Ah, the age-old debate of reviews vs. static analysis. I'm feeling (i) and (iii) on this one, but (v) seems a bit too absolute. Maybe we can get a mulligan on that one?
CH

Why do you think that?
OD

I disagree, I believe the answer is D.
LA
Lawanda 2 years ago
Hmm, this is tricky. I'm going to go with (D) since it seems to cover the key points about reviews and static/dynamic techniques. Although, I'm still a bit confused about the 'code required' part for walkthroughs.
SI

↳ replying to Lawanda
Yeah, I agree. Walkthroughs needing code is a bit confusing, but I guess it's necessary for that type of review.
MI

I think (D) is the correct answer too. It makes sense that defects are found earlier with reviews.

This question is a real brain-teaser! I'm torn between (C) and (D), but I think (i), (iii), and (v) are the most accurate statements.

I think the answer is C.

I think (i) and (iii) are true, but (ii) is debatable. Walkthroughs can be done without code, but static analysis definitely requires code.
