  • 2. 

    In which order should tests be run?

    • The most important tests first.

    • The most difficult tests first (to get the hardest work finished early).

    • The easiest tests first (to give initial confidence).

    • The order they are thought of.

    Correct Answer
    A. The most important tests first.
    Explanation
    In a risk-based approach, we'd want to start with the most important tests.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Which of the following is not a quality characteristic listed in the ISO 9126 Standard?

    • Functionality

    • Usability

    • Supportability

    • Maintainability

    Correct Answer
    A. Supportability
    Explanation
    ISO 9126 defines six quality characteristics. They are:

    Functionality
    Reliability
    Usability
    Efficiency
    Maintainability
    Portability

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following is the odd one out?

    • White box

    • Glass box

    • Structural

    • Functional

    Correct Answer
    A. Functional
    Explanation
    The first three are different words for the same thing, whereas functional testing is generally black box testing.

  • 5. 

    A program validates a numeric field as follows: - Values less than 10 are rejected- Values between 10 and 21 are accepted- Values greater than or equal to 22 are rejected Which of the following input value sets covers all of the equivalence partitions?

    • 10, 11, 21

    • 3, 20, 21

    • 3, 10, 22

    • 10, 21, 22

    Correct Answer
    A. 3, 10, 22
    Explanation
    3 is less than 10, so it falls into the first partition.
    10 is between 10 and 21, so it falls into the second partition.
    22 is greater than or equal to 22 so it falls into the third partition.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    How many test cases are necessary to cover all the possible sequences of statements (paths) for the following program fragment?  Assume that the two conditions are independent of each other:IF (Condition 1)    THEN        Statement 1    ELSE        Statement 2ENDIF IF (Condition 2)THEN    Statement 3ENDIF

    • 2 test cases

    • 3 test cases

    • 4 test cases

    • Not achievable

    Correct Answer
    A. 2 test cases
    Explanation
    We want to end up executing all statements across our test cases.

    TEST CASE ONE

    Condition 1 = TRUE will execute Statement 1.
    Condition 2 = TRUE will execute Statement 3.

    TEST CASE TWO

    Condition 1 = FALSE will execute Statement 2.

    It doesn't matter what we do with Condition 2 for this test case, but I'd be inclined to do Condition 2 = FALSE because this would give us decision coverage, which is more powerful than statement coverage.
