Cause-effect graphing? Really? That's like trying to catch a fish with a net made of string. A model-based technique is clearly the best option here.

I'm not sure, but I think D) Cause-effect graphing could also be useful for testing non-functional characteristics.

I agree, a model-based technique is the way to go. It'll let us simulate real-world usage and put the system through its paces. Plus, it's better than relying on those sketchy non-functional requirements, or lack thereof.

Test condition analysis could also be helpful, but it might not give us a complete picture without the non-functional requirements. A model-based approach sounds like the way to go.

I agree with Portia. Operational profiles can help simulate real-world scenarios for testing reliability.

A model-based technique based on the creation of operational profiles seems like the best choice here. Without clear non-functional requirements, we'll need to rely on analyzing the system's expected usage patterns to test its reliability.

User 3: Yeah, we need to focus on testing the system's reliability based on how it's expected to be used.
