ISTQB Exam CTAL-TTA Topic 5 Question 17 Discussion
Topic #: 5
Your team is now accountable for the support and enhancement of a payroll system that has been in production for many years and modified by many different developers. It has been noticed by management that small functional enhancements take much longer than equivalent changes on more recently developed systems. You have been tasked with implementing improved testing approaches that will help to identify the root cause of this problem.
Which of the following is the best technique to apply in this scenario?
Static analysis is the best technique for identifying the root causes of issues in a legacy system where small functional enhancements take disproportionately long to implement. This technique involves examining the code without executing it to detect potential vulnerabilities, coding errors, and complexities. Static analysis can highlight problematic code segments and inefficient coding practices that may contribute to the increased time required for implementing changes, thereby assisting in addressing these systemic issues efficiently.
