A team needs to generate test data for regression testing of a search feature. The data must include various search terms, including special characters and long strings, to test edge cases. Which approach using generative AI is most effective?

Use the AI to generate random strings without any constraints.

Ask the AI to generate a diverse set of search terms, including edge cases like special characters and very long strings.

Use the AI to generate data based on a single example search term.

Use the AI to generate only common search terms to keep the data realistic.

How can generative AI assist in creating test oracles?

By analyzing existing code to infer expected behavior

By fixing defects found during testing

By executing the tests and reporting results

What is a typical output of using generative AI to create regression test cases?

A set of test scripts or test steps in a structured format

A new version of the application under test

A list of all possible software defects

A report of test execution results

Why is synthetic test data useful for regression testing?

It can simulate realistic data without using sensitive production data

It is always smaller than production data

It eliminates the need for test oracles

It is guaranteed to be error-free

What is a common challenge when using generative AI for regression testing?

AI eliminates the need for test data

AI-generated tests may have low relevance or contain hallucinations

AI cannot be integrated with existing test frameworks

AI always requires more time than manual testing

Automated Regression Testing with Generative AI CT-GENAI Practice Questions (Page 1)

Part of the Prompt Engineering for Effective Software Testing domain, which makes up ~30% of our current practice bank. ISTQB does not publish an official question count, but from its 60-minute exam (~25–40 total, ~8–12 in this domain), expect 1–1 from this objective — we provide 36 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
