Answer:

SQL Injection

Explanation:

An SQL injection attack is a malicious activity that takes advantage of poor program design and accesses a database in a means other than was intended.

while:

Denial of service attack(DOS) is a cyber attack on a machine or network resource for a temporary period of time or indefinitely.

Session hijacking is trying to gain unauthorize access to a computer system.

Sniffing is the capturing of data as it is transmitted over a network.

Since roy is to test a database, all other attack aside SQL injection is not appropriate.
