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.
LO

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?
BL

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.
