Interaction between html pages

Performance on the client side

Security aspects

2. Q7. What are the 2 major components taken into consideration with risk analysis?

The probability the negative event will occur

The potential loss or impact associated with the event

Both a and b

Neither a nor b

3. Q10. What if the project isn't big enough to justify extensive testing?

Use risk based analysis to find out which areas need to be tested

Use automation tool for testing

A and b

None of the above

4. Q3. Typical defects that are easier to find in reviews than in dynamic testing are:

Deviations from standards

Requirement defects

Design defects

Insufficient maintainability and incorrect interface specifications

All of the above

5. Q22. Complete statement and branch coverage means:

That you have tested every statement in the program

That you have tested every statement and every branch in the program

That you have tested every IF statement in the program

That you have tested every combination of values of IF statements in the program

6. Q23. What if the project isn't big enough to justify extensive testing

Use risk based analysis to find out which areas need to be tested

Use automation tool for testing

A and b

None of the above

7. Q15. What do you mean by "Having to say NO"

No, the problem is not with testers

No, the software is not ready for production

Both a & b

None of the above

8. Q5. Reviews, static analysis and dynamic testing have the same objective –

Identifying defects

Fixing defects

1 and 2

None

9. Q18. Tools like change Man, Clear case are used as

Functional automation tools

Performance testing tools

Configuration management tools

None of the above

10. Q9. Who is responsible for conducting test readiness review?

Test manager

Test engineer

Both A & B

Project Manager

11. Q13. The selection of test cases for regression testing

Requires knowledge on the bug fixes and how it affect the system

Includes the area of frequent defects

Includes the area which has undergone many/recent code changes

All of the above

12. Q1. Deliverables of test design phase include all the following except:

Test data

Test data plan

Test summary report

Test procedure plan

13. Q2. Which of the following is not decided in the test-planning phase?

Schedules and deliverables

Hardware and software

Entry and exit criteria

Types of test cases

14. Q4. Load Testing Tools

Reduces the time spent by the testers

Reduces the resources spent (hardware)

Mostly used in web testing

All of the above

15. Q6. Defect arrival rate curve:

Shows the number of newly discovered defects per unit time

Shows the number of open defects per unit time

Shows the cumulative total number of defects found up to this time

Any of these, depending on the company

16. Q16. According to the lecture, there are several risks of managing your project's schedule with a statistical reliability model. These include:

It can increase the end-of-project pressure on testers to not find bugs, or to notreport bugs

All of the above

17. Q12. What can be done if requirements are changing continuously?

Negotiate to allow only easily-implemented new requirements into theproject, while moving more difficult new requirements into futureversions of the application

Both a and b

None of the above

18. Q19. Important consequences of the impossibility of complete testing are

We can never be certain that the program is bug free

We have no definite stopping point for testing, which makes it easier for somemanagers to argue for very little testing

All of the above

19. Q26. What is the concept of introducing a small change to the program and having theeffects of that change show up in some test?

Desk checking

Debugging a program

A mutation error

Performance testing

Introducing mutations

20. Q24. Security falls under

Compliance testing

Disaster testing

Verifying compliance to rules

Functional testing

Ease of operations

21. Q8. We can achieve complete statement coverage but still miss bugs because:

The failure depends on the program's inability to handle specific data values, rather than on the program's flow of control

Both A and B

We are not required to test code that customers are unlikely to execute

22. Q17. Operations testing is:

Compliance testing

Disaster testing

Verifying compliance to rules

Functional testing

Ease of operations

23. Q21. In the MASPAR case study:

Security failures were the result of untested parts of code

The development team achieved complete statement and branch coverage butmissed a serious bug in the MASPAR operating system

All of the above

24. Q14. Measurement dysfunction is a problem because:

You are measuring the wrong thing and thus reaching the wrong conclusions

All of the above.

25. Q25. Which is the best definition of complete testing:

You have discovered every bug in the program

You have tested every statement, branch, and combination of branches in theprogram

You have completed every test in the test plan.

You have reached the scheduled ship date

26. Q20. Which is not in sequence in 11 Step Software Testing process

Assess development plan and status

Develop the test plan

Test software design

Test software requirement
