BAll existing manual tests should be decomposed into several smaller automated tests to reduce functional overlap.

CRemove inter-dependencies between tests to reduce automation failures and costly error analysis.

DOnce a manual test has been automated, execute it immediately to Identify whether it operates correctly.

Immediate execution is key to catch issues early!

Surprised that some still don't automate right after!

I think decomposing tests can lead to more confusion.

Marya 12 months ago

Totally agree with removing inter-dependencies!

Mari 12 months ago

Storing test data in one place is a must!

I know we talked about executing automated tests right after automation, so option D might be a good practice to ensure everything works as expected.

I feel like removing inter-dependencies is crucial, but I can't recall if that was specifically mentioned in our practice sessions. Option C seems relevant.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think breaking down tests into smaller ones, like in option B, could help with clarity and maintenance.

I remember we discussed the importance of having a single source for test data to minimize errors. I think option A sounds right.

I'm a little confused by the other options. Sortable and Facetable don't seem directly relevant to the requirements. And Filterable is more for structured data, not full text search. I'm leaning towards option A as well.

I'm leaning towards answering 'Yes. You can.' but I'm not completely confident. There was something about security groups in the study materials.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. The `find_if` function should be able to find the `A` object with a value of 6 in the `vector`, but not in the `set` since the `set` stores the elements in sorted order.

Wait, is UDP really a supported protocol? I'm not 100% sure about that one, I might need to double-check the materials.
