ISTQB Exam CTFL-Foundation Topic 3 Question 29 Discussion

Static analysis tools are designed to examine the code without executing it. They are particularly effective at identifying structural issues in the code, such as potential infinite loops (B), which can occur due to incorrect logic that would cause the code to execute indefinitely. These tools analyze the code's structure and logic flow to find such issues early in the development process, helping to improve the code's quality before it is run.
