Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A software decision requires the evaluation of three atomic conditions: A, B, and C. Given the scenario below, how many test cases would be necessary to fulfill MC/DC criteria?
1. A must be true in at least one test case.
2. B must be false in at least one test case.
3. C must independently pass through both true and false.
Create the MC/DC test cases needed.

💡 Hint: Think about the independent influence requirements and generate necessary combinations.

Question 2

Consider a decision-making algorithm with conditions X, Y, and Z. Discuss how implementing MC/DC would change your approach in writing test cases for this algorithm. What challenges might arise?

💡 Hint: Recall the implications of MC/DC on the testing process and the efforts needed.
