CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 226

A company plans to publish a new application and must conform with security standards. Which of the following types of testing are MOST important for the systems administrator to run to assure the security and compliance of the application before publishing? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Regression testing
• B. Vulnerability testing
• C. Usability testing
• D. Functional testing
• E. Penetration testing
• F. Load testing

Correct answer: B, E

Explanation

Vulnerability testing (B) is crucial for identifying weaknesses in the application, while penetration testing (E) simulates attacks to evaluate security defenses. The other options, like regression, usability, functional, and load testing, focus on different aspects of application performance and user experience but do not directly address security compliance.
