ISTQB-CTFL Exam - Topic 6 Question 41 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISTQB's ISTQB-CTFL exam

Question #: 41
Topic #: 6

For the same financial institution in Question 12, with the same requirements and expectations, what would be the most likely investment values used in testing if two-point boundary value analysis is used to design test cases specific to the 13% interest rate equivalence partition?

AR100 000, R100 001, R500 000, R500 001.

BR99 999, R100 000, R499 999, R500 000.

CR100 000. R500 000.

DR99 000, R500 001.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

For boundary value analysis, the test cases should include the boundary values just inside and just outside the equivalence partition for the 13% interest rate range:

R100,000 (just inside the previous range)

R100,001 (start of the 13% range)

R500,000 (end of the 13% range)

R500,001 (just outside the range)

These values ensure that both the edges of the partition are tested.

Not sure about D, feels like it misses some key points.

C is too limited, we need more values for testing.

Wait, are we really considering R99 999? Seems odd!

Definitely think it's B. Those boundaries make sense!

I think option B makes sense because it includes values just below and above the critical points. It aligns with what we learned about equivalence partitioning.

I thought we only needed the exact boundary values, so maybe option C is the answer? But I'm not confident about that.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like we practiced a similar question where we had to identify values just around the thresholds. Could it be option A?

I remember we discussed boundary value analysis in class, and I think it's about testing just below and above the limits. So, maybe option B could be right?

I'm not entirely sure about this one. I'll need to carefully read the question and the options to make sure I understand what they're asking.

I'm confident I can solve this. The answer is B - R99,999, R100,000, R499,999, R500,000.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. The key is to identify the boundary values for the 13% interest rate equivalence partition.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the two-point boundary value analysis part. I'll need to review that concept again.

Haha, this question is a real brain-teaser. It's like they're trying to trip us up with all these financial shenanigans. Time to put on my thinking cap!
