True or False: If a test for a particular requirement is difficult or impossible to design during validation, this usually means the requirement will be difficult to implement and should be reconsidered.

Correct Answer

True

Explanation

Requirements should be verifiable — you should be able to write a set of tests that can demonstrate the delivered system meets each requirement. If the tests for a requirement are devised as part of validation and a test is difficult or impossible to design, this usually means the requirement will be difficult to implement and should be reconsidered.
