A requirement change is approved: the maximum allowed transaction amount increases from $5,000 to $10,000. The team uses MBT with a test model. What is the most efficient way to update the test suite?

Manually edit all existing test cases that involve transaction amounts.

Create a new test model for the new requirement and keep the old one for regression.

Update the test model to reflect the new limit and regenerate the affected test cases.

Delete all test cases and create new ones from scratch.

A team is creating a test model for a system that calculates shipping costs based on weight and destination. The requirements define zones and weight brackets. Which test model artifact would best support generating test cases for this logic?

A decision table with weight brackets and destination zones as conditions.

A sequence diagram showing interactions between system components.

A state machine diagram showing the states of a shipment.

A use case diagram showing actors and use cases.

Which strategy helps manage the impact of requirements changes on test models and test cases?

Rewriting all test cases from scratch after every change

Maintaining traceability links to identify affected models and tests

Ignoring changes until the end of the project

Freezing requirements to prevent any changes

In model-based testing, what does requirements traceability primarily ensure?

That every requirement has at least one corresponding test case or test model element

That all defects are fixed before release

That test cases are executed in the order they were created

That the test environment matches the production environment

A project has a requirement that changes frequently. The team uses MBT and has a test model with traceability links. However, the traceability links are becoming outdated because the model is not updated consistently. What is the most effective strategy to maintain traceability?

Remove traceability links and rely on test case names to indicate requirements.

Only update traceability at the end of each release.

Assign a dedicated person to manually update the traceability matrix every week.

Automate the update of traceability links by using a tool that synchronizes the model with the requirements repository.
