ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL 2018) — Question 18

In which development life cycle model is regression testing an increasingly important activity as the project progresses?

Answer options

• A. V-model.
• B. Waterfall.
• C. Scrum.
• D. Progressive.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Scrum, because it emphasizes iterative development and frequent changes, making regression testing crucial to ensure that new code doesn't adversely affect existing functionalities. In contrast, the V-model and Waterfall approaches have more rigid structures where regression testing is not as dynamically integrated, and Progressive is less recognized in this context.
