CTAL-TTA Exam Dumps : Certified Tester Advanced Level Technical Test Analyst

Multiple condition testing requires each possible combination of conditions to be tested, whereas modified condition/decision testing (MC/DC) requires each condition to be shown to independently affect the outcome. In the case of the ATM withdrawal, TC 3 (Customer does not have sufficient funds and credit has not been granted) would not result in the machine paying out, which is a result of applying multiple condition testing. However, for MC/DC, this test case would not be included because it doesn't provide an independent assessment of either condition's effect on the decision since both conditions are negative and the outcome is as expected (no payout).

Reliability testing is the process of checking whether the software consistently performs according to its specifications. For a commercial system with a critical internet-based user interface, ensuring that the application can handle connection failures without abnormal terminations is essential. Reliability testing would include testing the system's ability to recover from failures and continue operating, which directly addresses the risk identified.

To determine the minimum quantity of test cases that will give 100% statement coverage, we need to ensure that each executable statement in the code is executed at least once. Let's analyze the code step by step to identify the necessary paths:

Valid account number and active account:

Crediting money to the account.

Old balance < zero, new balance >= zero (overdraft cleared).

VIP customer: message sent by email.

Valid account number and active account:

Crediting money to the account.

Old balance < zero, new balance < zero (account overdrawn).

Non-VIP customer.

Valid account number and active account:

Crediting money to the account.

Old balance >= zero.

VIP customer: message sent by email.

Valid account number but inactive account:

Set message "A/c inactive".

Send message by email to supervisor.

Invalid account number:

Add to the count of invalid inputs.

Considering these scenarios, we can see that the minimum number of test cases to cover all statements is three:

Path with a valid, active account, old balance < zero, new balance >= zero, and VIP customer.

Path with a valid, active account, old balance >= zero, and non-VIP customer.

Path with an inactive account or invalid account number.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. 3.
