Question 4
You have just attended a cross-functional meeting during which a list of risk items was reviewed. After much discussion, each item was assigned a likelihood and impact rating by the group. Although there was some disagreement, the outcome was generally accepted by everyone who participated. You will now be working on planning the testing to address the identified risks in priority order. When you execute the tests, you will be conducting what type of activity?

Question 6
You are working on a hand held product that will be used by carpet salespeople to create estimates while the salesperson is at the customer's location. The carpet installation prices are different based on how much carpet the customer will be buying. If the customer is buying enough only for a small room (less than 20 square yards) the cost to install is $5 a square yard. For a medium room (less than 40 square yards) the cost to install is $4 a square yard. For a large room (40 square yards or more) the cost to install is $2 a square yard. Two small rooms or one small room plus a set of stairs is priced at the medium room price. Two medium rooms or one medium room plus a set of stairs is priced at the large room price.

Question 7
You have been assigned to test an application that allows users to conduct banking online. You have been asked to verify the various installation environments for the product. According to the specification the product supports four browsers (Edge, Chrome, FireFox, and Safari), three operating systems (Windows, Mac, Unix), and four languages (English, Spanish, French, German). As you are reviewing the specifications you realize that the actual operating system names and versions were not included, only the major category. From this, you conclude that if you pick one from each of these sets (for example, select Windows 10 for the Windows OS), that testing should be sufficient.
You have determined that some of these combinations are not interesting and should be excluded from the test sets. For example, you are not interested in testing Safari with Unix in German.
Which of the combinatorial testing techniques would be the best choice when you want to exclude certain combinations?
