Which of the following methods can be used to test random inputs? A) Measure execution time B) Count number of bytes C) Check the number of 1s and 0s D) Analyze system calls
Understand the Problem
The question is asking which methods can be used to test random inputs, providing multiple choice answers (A, B, C, D) that relate to different testing techniques or metrics.
Answer
Analyze system calls.
Analyze system calls can be used to test random inputs.
Answer for screen readers
Analyze system calls can be used to test random inputs.
More Information
Fuzz testing, or fuzzing, involves feeding random inputs into a system to explore potential issues. Analyzing the system calls can reveal unexpected behavior when these inputs are processed, helping in testing the robustness of the application.
Tips
A common mistake is not understanding how system calls and other measurement techniques play into identifying issues with random inputs.
