Test your basic knowledge |

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Examine changes made to an operational system cause defects.






2. A metric used to calculate the number of ALL condition or sub-expression outcomes in code that are executed by a test suite.






3. All possible combinations of input values and preconditions are tested.






4. Calculates the number of executed branch outcomes in code.






5. Test case design technique used to identify bugs occurring on or around boundaries of equivalence partitions.






6. Special-purpose software used to simulate a component called by the component under test






7. The process of finding analyzing and removing causes of failure in a software product.






8. Black-box test design technique - test cases are designed from a decision table.






9. Process used to create a SW product from initial conception to public release






10. Integration approach components or subsystems are combined all at once rather than in stages.






11. Testing performed to determine whether the system meets acceptance criteria






12. Check to make sure a system adheres to a defined set of standards conventions or regulations in laws and similar specifications.






13. ID SW products - components - risks - objectives; Estimate effort; Consider approach; Ensure adherence to organization policies; Determine team structure; Set up test environment; Schedule testing tasks & activities






14. Components at lowest level are tested first with higher-level components simulated by drivers. Tested components are then used to test higher-level components. Repeat until all levels have been tested.






15. Enables testers to prove that functionality between two or more communicating systems or components is IAW requriements.






16. Simple & easy to follow Its rigidity makes it easy to follow It's typically well planned - Systematic - Freezing requirements before development begins ensures no rework later Each phase has specific deliverables






17. The ratio between the number of defects found and the size of the component/system tested.






18. A code metric that specifies the number of independent paths through a program. Enables identification of complex (and therefore high-risk) areas of code.






19. Operational testing performed at an _external_ site without involvement of the developing organization.






20. A table showing combinations of inputs and their associated actions.






21. Used to test the functionality of software as mentioned in software requirement specifications.






22. Requirements that determine the functionality of a software system.






23. Actual inputs required to execute a test case






24. Tools used to keep track of different versions variants and releases of software and test artifacts (such as design documents test plans and test cases).






25. Component - Integration - System - Acceptance






26. Incident Report - Identifier - Summary - Incident - Description - Impact






27. Ad hoc method of exposing bugs based on past knowledge and experience of experts (e.g. empty strings illegal characters empty files etc.).






28. Components are combined and tested in the order in which basic functionalities start working






29. Fixed - Won't Fix - Later - Remind - Duplicate - Incomplete - Not a Bug - Invalid etc.






30. Sequence in which instructions are executed through a component or system






31. Separation of testing responsibilities which encourages the accomplishment of objective testing






32. Integration Approach: A frame or backbone is created and components are progressively integrated into it.






33. Allows storage of test input and expected results in one or more central data sources or databases.






34. A set of conditions that a system needs to meet in order to be accepted by end users






35. Testing performed to detect defects in interfaces and interation between integrated components. Also called "integration testing in the small".






36. Tools used to identify and calculate coverage items in program code.






37. The capability of a software product to provide functions that address explicit and implicit requirements from the product against specified conditions.






38. Tests interfaces between components and between integrated components and systems.






39. Testing performed based on the contract between a customer and the development organization. Customer uses results of the test to determine acceptance of software.






40. Black-box techniques used to derive test cases drawing on knowledge intuition and skill of individuals.






41. Unconfirmed - New - Open - Assigned - Resolved - Verified - Closed






42. Sequence in which data items are accessed or modified by code.






43. Testing software in its operational environment






44. A technique used to improve testing coverage by deliberately introducing faults in code.






45. Tools used to provide support for and automation of managing various testing documents such as test policy test strategy and test plan






46. Based on analysis of functional specifications of a system.






47. Tools used by developers to identify defects in programs.






48. Not related to the actual functionality e.g. reliability efficiency usability maintainability portability etc.






49. Software products or applications designed to automate manual testing tasks.






50. Testing an integrated system to validate it meets requirements
