Question #: 125
Topic #: 3

After the presentation, you are asked to explain the chart.

Assume you have applied a full risk-based testing strategy.

Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the pie chart?

Number of correct responses: 1

AAll the risk items have been covered with tests. No more risk items remain to test

BAccording to the full risk-based testing strategy applied, it is very likely that the highest-risk items, tests and bugs remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore, it is very risky to release the application

COnly the lowest-risk items, tests and bugs should remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore the application can be released at any time subject to management of the items identified in those areas

D97 percent of the risk items has been tested. No open bugs or test failures remain. Only 3 percent of risk items remains to be covered by the remaining test

I'm a bit confused about option D; it sounds good, but if only 3 percent of risk items are left, does that mean we can release?

I remember a practice question similar to this where we discussed how risk-based testing prioritizes high-risk areas, so I lean towards option B as well.

I think option B makes the most sense because it highlights that the highest-risk items are still untested, but I'm not completely sure.
