         (CNO-SA530.100) Step 3 - Selection of Items For Testing
         Approaches to sample selection:
           • Statistical
                o  Equal chance of Selection
                o  Probability Theory
           • Non-statistical (Judgement based)
         Important points:
           • Sample should represent population.
           • These approaches are not about sample size but the way the items are selected as sample.
