Programmers prefer programming to testing and sometimes they take shortcuts when writing tests. For example, they may write incomplete tests that do not check for all possible exceptions that may occur ?

Correct answer: A. True

  • A. True
  • B. False

Explanation

Test writing is sometimes given less attention than coding, so programmers may omit cases such as exceptional inputs or failure conditions. Such incomplete tests can make software appear reliable while leaving defects undiscovered.
