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. Tools used by developers to identify defects in programs.






2. Special-purpose software used to simulate a component that calls the component under test






3. Abilitiy of software to collaborate with one or more specified systems subsystem or components.






4. Component - Integration - System - Acceptance






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






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






7. Tool or hardware device that runs in parallel to assembled component. It manages records and analyzes the behavior of the tested system.






8. Commercial Off-The-Shelf products. Products developed for the general market as opposed to those developed for a specific customer.






9. Incremental rollout Adapt processes testware etc. to fit with use of tool Adequate training Define guidelines for use of tool (from pilot project) Implement continuous improvement mechanism Monitor use of tool Implement ways to learn lessons






10. Frequency of tests failing per unit of measure (e.g. time number of transactions test cases executed.)






11. 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.






12. Linear Code Sequence and Jump.






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






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






15. Tools used to store and manage incidents return phone defects failures or anomalies.






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






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






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






19. Specific groups that represent a set of valid or invalid partitions for input conditions.






20. Tests functional or nonfunctional attributes of a system or its components but without referring to the internal structure of the system or its components






21. Measures amount of testing performed by a collection of test cases






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






23. Assessment of changes required to different layers of documentation and software to implement a given change to the original requirements.






24. Components are integrated in the order in which they are developed






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






26. A functional testing approach in which test cases are designed based on business processes.






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






28. Scripting technique that uses data files to store test input expected results and keywords related to a software application being tested.






29. Metric used to calculate the number of combinations of all single condition outcomes within one statement that are executed by a test case.






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






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






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






33. Black-box testing technique used to create groups of input conditions that create the same kind of output.






34. Waterfall iterative-incremental "V"






35. A task of maintaining and controlling changes to all entities of a system.






36. Components or subsystems are integrated and tested one or some at a time until all the components are subsystems are integrated and tested.






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






38. Conditions ensuring testing process is complete and the object being tested is ready for next stage.






39. A black-box test design technique used to identify possible causes of a problem by using the cause-effect diagram






40. Review documents (reqs architecture design etc.) ID conditions to be tested Design tests Assess testability of reqs ID infrastructure & tools






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






42. A component of the incident report that determines the actual effect of the incident on the software and its users.






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






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






45. Actual inputs required to execute a test case






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






47. Special additions or changes to the environment required to run a test case.






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






49. A test case design technique for a software component to ensure that the outcome of a decision point or branch in cod is tested.






50. Nonfunctional testing including testing: ease of fixing defects - ease of meeting new requirements - ease of maintenance
