Discuss ISQI CTFL_Syll2018 Exam Topic 3 Question 106

From the following list, which of the following apply to experience-based techniques? [K2]

a. Test cases are derived from a model of the problem to be solved or the software

b. Test cases are derived from the knowledge of the testers

c. The knowledge of testers, developers and users is used to drive testing

d. The internal structure of the code is used to derive test cases

Aa and b.

Bc and d.

Ca and d.

Db and c.

Suggested Answer: D

Equivalence Partitioning is a black-box test design technique that divides input data of a software module into partitions of equivalent data from which test cases can be derived. In this context, the valid equivalence partitions are:

Silver Tier: 0 to 400 Credits

Gold Tier: 401 to 800 Credits

Platinum Tier: 801 to 1400 Credits

Concierge Tier: 1401+ Credits

The test cases provided cover all these partitions:

TC1 covers the Silver Tier boundary at 400 Credits.

TC2 covers within the Gold Tier at 500 Credits.

TC3 covers the Gold Tier boundary at 800 Credits.

TC4 covers within the Concierge Tier at 1500 Credits.

Since all valid partitions are covered by the test cases, 100% of the valid Equivalence Partitions have been achieved.

Not sure about d, seems more like a white-box approach.

Rusty 11 months ago

a and b definitely apply, but c is also crucial.

Erasmo 11 months ago

Wait, are we really using the internal code structure for this?

Myrtie 11 months ago

Totally agree, it's all about the testers' knowledge!

Jerlene 11 months ago

I think b and c are spot on for experience-based techniques.

Corazon 12 months ago

I’m confused about a and d; they seem more related to structural testing rather than experience-based techniques.

Marta 12 months ago

I practiced a similar question, and I think c definitely applies since it mentions the knowledge of testers and users.

Carla 12 months ago

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about using models for test cases, which makes me lean towards a and d.

Elly 1 year ago

I think experience-based techniques focus more on the testers' knowledge, so maybe b and c are the right choices?

Pura 1 year ago

I'm confident that the answer is a and b. Test cases in experience-based testing are derived from the testers' knowledge, not from a model or the internal structure of the code.

Willodean 1 year ago

Okay, I think I've got this. Experience-based testing relies on the knowledge and expertise of the testers, developers, and users, so options b and c seem to be the correct answer.

Joni 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to be mixing different testing approaches, so I'll need to carefully consider which ones apply to experience-based techniques.

Helga 1 year ago

This looks like a straightforward question on experience-based testing techniques. I'll focus on the key characteristics mentioned in the options.

Deeann 1 year ago

Okay, let me think this through. Experience-based techniques are all about tapping into the collective wisdom of the team. But I'm not sure if that includes the internal structure of the code. I'll go with D, just to be safe.

Carol 1 year ago

Ha! I bet the person who wrote this question has never actually tested software in the real world. Experience-based techniques are all about the human touch, not some theoretical model.

Jillian 1 year ago

↳ replying to Carol

The human touch in testing is essential, that's why experience-based techniques focus on the knowledge of the people involved.

Jillian 1 year ago

↳ replying to Carol

Definitely, test cases derived from the knowledge of testers are crucial in experience-based techniques.

Jillian 1 year ago

↳ replying to Carol

I agree, experience-based techniques rely on the knowledge of testers, developers, and users.

Tyisha 1 year ago

Wait, are we supposed to use the internal structure of the code for experience-based techniques? I thought that was more for white-box testing. This exam question is confusing!

Arlene 1 year ago

↳ replying to Tyisha

So the answer would be D) b and c, since those options align with experience-based techniques.

Shasta 1 year ago

↳ replying to Tyisha

Yeah, that's right. It's not about the internal structure of the code, that's more for white-box testing.

Kanisha 1 year ago

↳ replying to Tyisha

I think for experience-based techniques, we use the knowledge of testers, developers, and users to drive testing.

Elin 2 years ago

But experience-based techniques rely on tester knowledge, so a and b make more sense.

Cherry 2 years ago

I disagree, I believe the answer is B) c and d.

Cletus 2 years ago

I think the correct answer is D. Experience-based techniques are derived from the knowledge of testers, developers, and users, not from a model or the internal structure of the code.

Jonelle 1 year ago

↳ replying to Cletus

So the correct answer is D, which includes options b and c.

Jonelle 1 year ago

↳ replying to Cletus

I agree, experience-based techniques rely on the knowledge of testers, developers, and users.

Elin 2 years ago

I think the answer is A) a and b.
