CT-AI · Question #22

Consider an AI system in which the complex internal structure has been generated by another software system. Why would the tester choose to do black-box testing on this particular system?

The correct answer is D. Black-box testing eliminates the need for the tester to understand the internal structure of the AI. The syllabus explains: "Where the internal structure of an AI-based system is too complex for humans to understand, the system can only be tested as a black box. Even when the internal structure is visible, this provides no additional useful information to help with testing."…

Question

Consider an AI system in which the complex internal structure has been generated by another software system. Why would the tester choose to do black-box testing on this particular system?

Options

  • ATest automation can be built quickly and easily from the test cases developed during black-box
  • BThe tester wishes to better understand the logic of the software used to create the internal
  • CThe black-box testing method will allow the tester to check the transparency of the algorithm used
  • DBlack-box testing eliminates the need for the tester to understand the internal structure of the AI

Explanation

The syllabus explains: "Where the internal structure of an AI-based system is too complex for humans to understand, the system can only be tested as a black box. Even when the internal structure is visible, this provides no additional useful information to help with testing." This confirms that black-box testing is chosen because the tester does not need to understand the system's internal structure.
