Which of the following testing activities is NOT considered a regression test case?
Which of the following testing activities is NOT considered a regression test case?
Multiple Choice Options
- A
A representative sample of tests that exercise all core software functions
- B
Additional tests that focus on software functions likely to be affected by the recent code change
- C
Tests that focus directly on the software components and modules that have been modified
- D✓ Correct Option
Combining low-level unit components into integration clusters to perform integration testing
Detailed Technical Solution & Explanation
Regression testing re-runs existing test suites to ensure that recent code modifications have not introduced unintended bugs into previously working features. Combining low-level units into clusters is Integration Testing, not regression testing.
Option Analysis:
•
Option A (Sample exercising all functions): Standard regression suite.
•
Option B (Tests on affected functions): Targeted regression testing.
•
Option C (Tests on changed components): Modified component regression testing.
•
Option D (Combining components into clusters): Correct as the non-regression activity (defines Integration Testing).
