5.1 Test Planning

FL-5.1.5 (K3) Apply test case prioritization

        2. You are testing a web application that allows users to SEARCH for products, VIEW product details, ADD products to a shopping cart, and place an ORDER.

You have prepared the following five test cases, which you want to execute according to their priorities:

TC1: SEARCH product A                                            Priority: medium

TC2: VIEW product A details                                      Priority: low

TC3: ADD product B to a shopping cart                   Priority: medium

TC4: ADD product C to a shopping cart                  Priority: high

TC5: place an ORDER                                                 Priority: high

You also identified the following logical dependencies between test cases:

• SEARCH functionality must be tested before VIEW functionality can be tested, as product details rely on search functionality.
• VIEW functionality must be tested before ADD functionality, as adding products relies on the availability of accurate product details.

Which test case should be executed as the fourth one?

a)  TC3            

b)  TC1            

c)  TC2      

d) TC4
