Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a program segment that illustrates the use of dataflow testing principles. Ensure to include definitions, uses, and kills.

💡 Hint: Make sure to show how a variable can be defined, used, and then killed.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a summary of the trade-offs between implementing All-DU-Paths coverage versus All-Defs coverage in your testing strategy.

💡 Hint: Think about what level of coverage is necessary to ensure successful bugs detection without overwhelming the testing resources.
