Statement testing is a structure-based (white-box) technique. This technique involves testing the internal structure of the application, focusing on the execution of the statements within the code. The goal is to ensure that every statement in the code has been executed at least once during the testing process. Other options like decision table testing, state transition testing, and boundary value analysis are black-box techniques, which do not require knowledge of the internal code structure. Reference: ISTQB CTFL Syllabus V4.0, Section 4.3.1.

I have a feeling that state transition testing might also be structure-based, but I can't recall the specifics.

I practiced a similar question, and I think decision table testing is more about functional testing, not structure-based.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember that boundary value analysis is more about input values rather than the code structure.

I think statement testing is the right answer since it focuses on the internal structure of the code.
