hard🚀 Application Q8 of Q15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand the bug cause
Bugs arise from inconsistent data formats exchanged between modules developed separately.Step 2: Identify testing level for module communication
Integration testing focuses on interactions and data exchange between modules.Step 3: Exclude other levels
Unit testing tests modules alone, system testing tests whole system but may miss detailed interface issues, acceptance testing checks user needs.Final Answer:
Integration Testing -> Option BQuick Check:
Data format bugs between modules = Integration Testing [OK]
Quick Trick: Integration testing finds data exchange bugs between modules [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Choosing system testing for detailed module interface bugs
- Assuming unit testing covers inter-module data
- Confusing acceptance testing with integration testing
