Question 3 • Introduction to Information Technology - EL3701

Which of these are characteristics of debugging software? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
Debugging involves beta testers using the program.
B
Debugging involves running the software with a debugger program.
C
Debugging is part of the process of looking for computer software code errors.
D
Debugging is only done once.

Explanation

Debugging is the process of finding and correcting errors in software code, so choice C describes it. A debugger program can help run the software, inspect its behavior, and locate errors, making choice B correct. Beta testing involves users trying software and reporting issues, but it is not itself debugging. Debugging may need to happen repeatedly, so choice D is incorrect.
