Allen needs a program that injects automatically semi-random data into a program or stacks and detects bugs. What will he use?

A.
Fuzzer

B.
Happy path

C.
Boundary value analysis

D.
Agile testing

Explanation:
A fuzzer is a program that is used to inject automatically semi-random data into a program/stack and detect bugs. The programs and frameworks that are used to create fuzz tests or perform fuzz testing are called fuzzers. Fuzzing has evolved from a niche technique into a full testing discipline with support from both the security research and traditional QA testing communities. Fuzzing (Fuzz testing) is an automated software testing technique that involves providing invalid, unexpected, or random data to the inputs of a computer program. The program is then monitored for exceptions such as crashes or failing built-in code assertions. Fuzzing is commonly used to test for security problems in software or computer systems.

Answer option C is incorrect. Boundary value analysis is a software testing technique in which tests are designed to include representatives of boundary values.

Answer option B is incorrect. A happy path is a default scenario that features no exception or error conditions, and contains the sequence of activities that will be executed if everything goes as anticipated.

Answer option D is incorrect. Agile testing is a software testing practice. It follows the principles of agile software development. This testing does not accentuate the testing procedures and focuses on ongoing testing against the newly developed code until quality software from an end customer’s perspective results. It is built upon the philosophy that testers need to adapt to the rapid

deployment cycles and changes in the testing patterns.
