Which of the following is a use case for GenAI in security testing of finance software?

Generating test cases that probe for common vulnerabilities like SQL injection.

Automatically patching all security vulnerabilities in the application.

Guaranteeing that the application is free from all security defects.

Replacing the need for penetration testing by human experts.

Which of the following is a core capability of Generative AI that is useful in finance software testing?

Replacing the need for any test environment setup.

Automatically fixing all production defects without human intervention.

Guaranteeing that all generated test cases are free of defects.

A financial services firm is using GenAI to generate realistic user behavior patterns for load testing its trading platform. The generated patterns are based on historical production data. The performance testing team notices that the system performs well under the generated load, but they are concerned about the validity of the test. What is the most likely reason for this concern?

The GenAI-generated patterns may not include extreme peak loads that occur during market volatility.

The GenAI tool cannot generate realistic user behavior patterns.

The performance testing team should not use GenAI for load testing.

The GenAI tool will always generate patterns that are biased towards normal behavior.

A financial software testing team is considering using GenAI to generate test cases for a new payment processing system. They are concerned about the reliability of the generated test cases. What is a fundamental limitation of GenAI that they should consider?

GenAI may generate test cases that are plausible but incorrect or incomplete.

GenAI cannot generate test cases for complex financial systems.

GenAI will always generate test cases that are biased towards the training data.

GenAI cannot be used for functional testing in finance.

A QA team wants to use GenAI to automate the execution of functional tests for a loan management system. They have a set of existing test scripts that need to be updated for new features. What is the best way to use GenAI in this context?

Use GenAI to replace manual testing entirely.

Use GenAI to run the existing test scripts automatically without any changes.

Use GenAI to suggest updates to existing test scripts based on the new feature descriptions.

Use GenAI to generate new test scripts from scratch for every release.
