Which of the benefits displayed in the exhibit are MOST likely to be achieved by using test tools?

Question

Options

• Aii and iv
• Bii and iii
• Ci and iv
• Di and iii

• A
  5% (2)
• B
  16% (6)
• C
  70% (26)
• D
  8% (3)

Explanation

Option C (i and iv) is correct because the benefits most directly and reliably delivered by test tools are typically the reduction of repetitive manual work (i) and greater consistency and repeatability (iv) - tools mechanically automate execution and apply the same logic every time, making these near-guaranteed outcomes of tool adoption.

Options ii and iii (ruling out A and B) represent benefits that depend heavily on how well the tools are used, the quality of test design, or broader process improvements - not the tools themselves. For example, better defect detection rates or improved team communication require skilled testers and good processes; a tool alone doesn't deliver them.

Options B and D fail because they each mix one correct answer with one incorrect distractor - you need both i and iv together, not either paired with ii or iii.

Memory tip: Think of test tools like a printing press - they guarantee speed/repetition (less manual work) and uniformity (consistency). They don't automatically guarantee quality of what gets printed - that still depends on the operator's skill. Map "press guarantees" → i and iv.
