Can pairwise testing guarantee the discovery of all defects in a system?
- No, it can only find specific types of defects
- No, it is not effective for defect discovery
- Yes, but only for specific types of defects
- Yes, if executed with exhaustive combinations
Pairwise testing cannot guarantee the discovery of all defects in a system. While effective in reducing the number of test cases, it focuses on specific combinations and may not catch defects that arise from interactions not covered in the selected subset. It complements other testing methods for comprehensive defect detection.
