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






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






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






4. Severity - Priority






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






6. Record details of test cases executed Record order of execution record results






7. Develop & proiroitize test cases Create groups of test cases Set up test environment






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






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






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






11. Ease with which software cna be modified to correct defects meet new requirements make future maintenance easier or adapt to a changed environment.






12. 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.






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






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






15. Increased load (transations) used to test behavior of system under high volume.






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






17. Execute individual & groups of test cases Record results Compare results with expected Report differenes between actual & expected Re-execute to verify fixes






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






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






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






21. A document that provides the structure for writing test cases.






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






23. Actual inputs required to execute a test case






24. Human action that generates an incorrect result.






25. Linear Code Sequence and Jump.






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






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






28. Combining components or sytems into larger structural units or subsystems.






29. Based on the generic iterative-incremental model. Teams work by dividing project tasks into small increments involving only short-term planning to implement various iterations






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






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






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






33. Events that occurred during the testing process our investigation.






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






35. Inputs - Expected Results - Actual Results - Anomalies - Date & Time - Procedure Step - Attempts to repeat - Testers - Observers






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






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






38. A metric to calculate the number of SINGLE condition outcomes that can independently affect the decision outcome.






39. Uses risks to: ID test techniques Determine how much testing is required Prioritize tests with high-priority risks first






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






41. Find defects in code while the software application being tested is running.






42. Testing performed at development organization's site but outside organization. (I.e. testing is performed by potential customers users or independent testing team)






43. Informal testing technique in which test planning and execution run in parallel






44. Examine changes made to an operational system cause defects.






45. Begin with initial requirements specification phase end with implementation and maintenance phases with cyclical transitions in between phases.






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






47. Testing an integrated system to validate it meets requirements






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






49. Scheduling Tests Manage test activities Provide interfaces to different tools provide traceability of tests Log test results Prepare progress reports






50. Testing software in its operational environment
