Tax system
A tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than 20.000 and who is married, the tax needs to be re-calculated. If the person also has more than two and less than five children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.
Applying equivalence partitioning to the ''Tax System'' specification, which of the following set of equivalence classes is most effective in testing the processing the number of children?

Wait, why only 2-5 kids? What about 1 or more than 5?

I think I saw a similar question in our practice tests, and it emphasized testing within the limits. So, I lean towards option B as the most effective choice.

I’m a bit confused about whether we should include values outside the specified range. I feel like option A might not be right since it has 6 children.

I remember practicing equivalence partitioning, and I think we should include the boundary values. So, maybe option B with 2, 4, and 5 children makes sense?

I think we need to focus on the range of children mentioned in the question. It said more than two and less than five, so I’m not sure if options with 6 children are valid.
