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).

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.

API testing tends to focus on individual inputs more than combinations of inputs. This is because APIs, as the intermediary layers of software, often handle specific types of data input and output rather than user interaction sequences. GUI testing, on the other hand, involves testing the interface with which the user interacts, which frequently includes testing various combinations of user inputs and sequences to simulate actual user scenarios. Thus, GUI testing typically requires checking the integration and behavior of elements in combination to ensure they work together as expected in a user environment .
