Same tests, no new bugs found: which principle?

QuizEasy-MediumAsked in: Accenture

The same 150 regression tests (tests that re-check old features after each change) have passed on every build for a year. Meanwhile, users keep reporting new bugs in features those tests cover, using inputs the tests never try.

Which testing principle explains this best?

  • Tests wear out (the pesticide paradox)
  • Testing is context dependent
  • Absence-of-defects fallacy
  • Early testing saves time and money
