Explain what a student would need to show to achieve Level 4 in the testing section. Refer to the quality and selection of evidence, the extent of testing, and the conclusions that the evidence should support.

Model answer

What a good answer should say

  • The student should provide clear evidence using carefully selected representative samples.
  • The samples should show that thorough testing has been carried out across the complete or nearly complete solution.
  • The evidence should demonstrate that the solution is robust and that the requirements of the solution or investigation have been achieved.
  • The tests should be planned in a test plan or fully explained alongside the evidence.

Explanation

Why this works

Level 4 is not achieved merely by listing many tests. The evidence must be clear, representative and sufficient to demonstrate both robustness and achievement of the requirements.
