Your organization has been making animal food dispensers for free-range chickens and has been using a combination of test automation, exploratory testing, and some black-box testing on all products. The company has been using the following approach to the testing of the high-risk items:
Exploratory testing = 85%
Black-box testing = 15%
Test automation = coverage goal is 25% but time is only allocated to automation if no other testing is needed, so the coverage is currently about 5% and the automation suite is run only infrequently.
The company has decided to modify their product and use it for pill dispensing for pharmacies. Regardless of the mechanical challenges of this modification, you now have to determine how testing should be adjusted for this safety-critical application. Which of the following would follow the guidelines in the syllabus for the testing approach for the high-risk items?
