Understanding the Purpose of Unit Testing

Which of the following best describes the main purpose of unit testing in software development?

ATo test the entire software system as a whole to find integration issues
BTo test individual parts of the code to ensure each part works correctly
CTo check the software's performance under heavy user load
DTo verify the software's user interface looks attractive

Trace the Result of a Simple Test Case

Consider a function that adds two numbers. A test case checks if add(2, 3) returns 5. What is the result of this test case?

Intro to Computing
def add(a, b):
    return a + b

result = add(2, 3)
expected = 5
passed = (result == expected)
print(passed)
ATrue
BFalse
CTypeError
DSyntaxError

Understanding Regression Testing Importance

Why is regression testing important after fixing a bug in software?

ATo improve the software's user interface design
BTo test only the new features added after the bug fix
CTo check if the bug fix caused new problems in other parts of the software
DTo reduce the software's file size
