Q202. You are considering involving users during test execution. In general, what is the main reason for involving users during test execution?

They are a cheap resource

They have good testing skills

This can serve as a way to build their confidence in the system

They have the ability to also focus on invalid test cases

Q203. Incorrect form of Logic coverage is:

Statement Coverage

Pole Coverage

Condition Coverage

Path Coverage

Q204. Who closes normally the defect reports?

Marketing

Analysts

Developers

Testers

Q205. Which of the following are part of ISTQB code of ethics?

Q206. Consider the following pseudo code:
1 Begin
2 Read Time
3 If Time < 12 Then
4 Print(Time, “am”)
5 Endif
6 If Time > 12 Then
7 Print(Time 12, “pm”)
8 Endif
9 If Time = 12 Then
10 Print (Time, “noon”)
11 Endif
12 End
If the test cases Time = 11 and Time = 15 were input, what level of decision coverage would be achieved?

100% or 6/6

50% or 3/6

67% or 4/6

83% or 5/6

Test case 1 exercises the decision outcomes True, False, False Test case 2 exercises the decision outcomes False, True, False This leaves the True outcome of decision 3 not exercised.
Of the 6 possible decision outcomes, 5 have been exercised, so the decision coverage is 5/6 (about 83%).

Q207. 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

Q208. When is testing complete?

When time and budget are exhausted.

When there is enough information for sponsors to make an informed decision about release.

When there are no remaining high priority defects outstanding.

When every data combination has been exercised successfully.

Sometimes time/money does signify the end of testing, but it is really complete when everything that was set out in advance has been achieved.

Q209. Which of the following does NOT describe a reason why testing is necessary?

The customer decided that 100% branch coverage shall be achieved

The risks associated with delivering the system are far higher than the cost of testing

For avionics and pharmaceutical systems software testing is mandated by standards

The acquisition of test automation tools was based on the assumption that it will be used in all projects

Q210. Which of the following statements is true?
I) Test planning activities include selecting the test object
II) Test strategy implementation is NOT a part of test planning
III) Choosing appropriate test techniques is part of test design
IV) Test schedule and exit criteria modification are part of test planning

I, IV

I, II

II, III

III, IV

Q211. Which of the following are product risks?
a) Failure prone software delivered.
b) Software does not perform its intended functions.
c) Insufficient staff available for testing.
d) Test environment not ready on time.
e) Poor data integrity and quality.

b, c and e.

b, d and e.

a, b and e.

b, c and d.

Q212. When what is visible to end-users is a deviation from the specific or expected behavior, this is called..?

An error

A fault

A failure

A defect

A mistake

Q213. Which of the following are the most important factors to be taken into account when selecting test techniques?
(i) Tools available.
(ii) Regulatory standards.
(iii) Experience of the development team.
(iv) Knowledge of the test team.
The need to maintain levels of capability in each technique.

(i) and (ii)

(ii) and (iv)

(iii) and (iv)

(i) and (v)

Answer (i) looks temptingly right, and the availability of tools might make the use of a technique more or less attractive, but it would not be decisive in the way that regulatory standards and tester knowledge are.
Answer (iii) is irrelevant because testing should be independent of development anyway, but it could tempt someone who is unsure about the relationship between development and testing.
Answer (v) is a factor in managing the test team, and experience would need to be maintained, but this should not influence the selection of techniques for a live project.

Q214. Which of the following are valid reasons for adopting a different life cycle (from the V model), for increments after the first year?
(i). We do not have a clear understanding of the requirements from a customer perspective.
(ii). We see the risk of delivering requested functionality late as being higher than the risk of delivering a lower quality product.
(iii). We do not have a budget for additional regression testing which is needed to ensure that existing functionality is not compromised by future iterations.
(iv). The company test strategy does not fit well within the V life cycle model.

(i) and (ii)

(i) and (iv)

(ii) and (iii)

(ii) and (iv)

Topic 5, V2 “Test Management Tool”
The project situation after 11 months is:
– The first increment was released one week late but contained
sufficient functionality to be declared fit for purpose’. However,
there were 20 outstanding incidents deferred to increment two.
– The amount of voluntary overtime worked PV the test team has reduced
the second Increment slippage to just 3 weeks.
– There is talk of reducing the scope of requirements. The purpose of
this is to first deliver the application with support for manual
testing and then to provide a delivery * weeks later to resolve any
remaining points and provide support for automated testing (i.e. the
link to the capture-replay tool).
– Concerns have been expressed by a section of the user community, that in some places the usability is very poor.
