Exam CV0-003 topic 1 question 93 discussion

FUNCTIONAL TESTING is a type of software testing that validates the software system against the functional requirements/specifications. The purpose of Functional tests is to test each function of the software application, by providing appropriate input, verifying the output against the Functional requirements.

C. Integration testing would be the best option for the system administrator in this scenario, as it involves testing the interactions between different components of the system to ensure they work together as expected. In this case, the administrator would want to test the interactions between the restful API, the encryption system, and the calculator system to ensure that the encrypted message is properly received and processed by the calculator system through the API.

C is the correct answer. While functional testing checks whether the API performs its intended function, integration testing is more relevant here because it verifies communication between the API and the calculator system.

Where are people getting Integration Testing? lol Not in the exam objectives. • Testing techniques - Vulnerability testing - Penetration testing - Performance testing - Regression testing - Functional testing - Usability testing

Integration testing would be the most appropriate technique for ensuring the proper function of the API in conjunction with the calculator system.

Agree with C

A. Functional testing would be the BEST technique for the administrator to use in order to ensure the proper function of the API using a new automation tool. Functional testing is a testing technique that involves testing the functionality of an application to ensure that it performs the intended tasks correctly. In this case, the API is expected to receive an encrypted message and pass it to a calculator system, so functional testing can help ensure that the API is working properly and is passing the message correctly to the calculator system. Other types of testing, such as performance testing, integration testing, and unit testing, may also be useful in some contexts, but functional testing is the most appropriate option for ensuring that the API is functioning properly.

It literally says Function in the question, he is testing the function (also an exam objective btw, integration is not)
