In case of Large Systems:
A.
Only few tests should be run
B.
Testing should be on the basis of Risk
C.
Only Good Test Cases should be executed
D.
Test Cases written by good test engineers should be executed
Correct Answer
B. Testing should be on the basis of Risk
Explanation In large systems, it is not feasible to run all possible tests due to time and resource constraints. Therefore, testing should be prioritized based on the level of risk associated with different components or functionalities of the system. By focusing on high-risk areas, the testing effort can be optimized to identify and address potential issues that could have a significant impact on the system's performance, reliability, or security. This approach ensures that the most critical aspects of the system are thoroughly tested, while minimizing the time and effort spent on less critical areas.
