ISTQB Exam CTAL-TTA Topic 1 Question 18 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISTQB's CTAL-TTA exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 1
[All CTAL-TTA Questions]

You have conducted static analysis on several new modules for an existing product. You are now executing test cases and are seeing inconsistent problems including crashes. Intermittent error messages are appearing. Despite all your best efforts, you are not able to find reproducible scenarios to force these errors.

What problem in the code are you likely seeing?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Experiencing inconsistent problems such as crashes and intermittent error messages that do not have reproducible scenarios likely points to an issue with wild pointers. Wild pointers are pointers that do not point to a valid object of the appropriate type, often due to being uninitialized, pointing to deallocated memory, or having been overwritten accidentally.

I believe it's a combination of poor error handling and wild pointers causing these intermittent errors.

Could it also be due to wild pointers causing these crashes?

Wild pointers, no doubt. Gotta love how they can make your code go haywire in the most unpredictable ways.

Instrumented code, huh? More like 'Instrument of Torture' if you ask me!

Undefined variables, for sure. I bet the code is full of those sneaky little buggers, just waiting to trip someone up.

I'd bet on poor error handling. Looks like the developers didn't plan for all those edge cases, and now we're paying the price.

Hmm, this sounds like a classic case of wild pointers to me. Those pesky things can really cause all sorts of intermittent issues.

Maybe we should focus on fixing those wild pointers first.
