Different testing techniques are appropriate at different points in time.

Testing is conducted by the developer of the software or an independent test group.

Testing and debugging are different activities, but debugging must be accommodated in any testing strategy.

None of the mentioned.

All of the mentioned

Error description is unintelligible

Error noted does not correspond to error encountered

Integration testing

Unit testing

Completion of Testing

Regression Testing

A representative sample of tests that will exercise all software functions

Additional tests that focus on software functions that are likely to be affected by the change

Tests that focus on the software components that have been changed

Low-level components are combined into clusters that perform a specific software sub-function
