Question 5 of 10

Team of test engineers was assigned to test the new customer portal software release at SFT Inc. The lead test engineer created a state transition model based on the requirements specification of the software. The model was reviewed by developers, test manager, project manager and pre-selected stakeholders. The diagram created by the test lead was approved after few iterations of reviews. After the approval, test team derived test cases from the state transition model and inserted the test cases to Quality Center (test cases management tool). What type of test design technique was used by the test team to design their tests for the new customer portal software?

1.A. Specification based

2.B. Structure based

3.C. Experience based

4.D. Defect based
