Monitoring code coverage is inherently tied to knowledge of the internal structure of the software, a characteristic of white-box testing.
Evaluation of Options:
A. Black-box:
Incorrect. Black-box testing focuses on functionality without knowledge of internal structures.
B. White-box:
Correct. White-box testing uses internal code knowledge to determine areas that need more coverage.
C. Functional:
Incorrect. Functional testing assesses functionality without inspecting internal code.
D. Non-functional:
Incorrect. Non-functional testing focuses on performance, usability, etc., not code coverage.
Syllabus Alignment:
ISTQB associates code coverage monitoring with white-box testing techniques (TM-1.2.6).
