iSAQB Certified Professional for Software Architecture – Foundation Level (CPSA-F) — Question 8

Which two of the following statements about quality characteristics are most accurate? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Flexibility reduces testability
• B. Increased flexibility improves robustness
• C. Simplicity increases comprehensibility
• D. Increased efficiency results in reduced performance

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The correct answers are A and C because flexibility can complicate testing processes, thereby reducing testability, while simplicity indeed tends to enhance comprehensibility. Options B and D are incorrect as increased flexibility does not necessarily lead to improved robustness, and higher efficiency typically does not result in decreased performance.
