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. Occurrences that happen before and after an unexpected event






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






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






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






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






6. Used to replace a component that calls another component.






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






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






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






10. One defect prevents the detection of another.






11. Integrate different kinds of tools to make test management more efficient and simple.






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






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






14. 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






15. Planning & Control - Analysis and Design - Implementation and Execution - Evaluating Exit - Criteria and Reporting - Closure






16. Testing an integrated system to validate it meets requirements






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






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






19. 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






20. Deviation of a software system from its expected delivery services or results






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






30. 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






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






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






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






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






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






36. Human action that generates an incorrect result.






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






38. Testing software in its operational environment






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






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






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






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






43. Measure & analyze results of testing; Monitor document share results of testing; Report information on testing; Initiate actions to improve processes; Make decisions about testing






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






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






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






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






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






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






50. The smallest software item that can be tested in isolation.
