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






2. A review not based on a formal documented procedure






3. 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.






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






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






6. An event or item that can be tested using one or more test cases






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






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






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






10. Waterfall iterative-incremental "V"






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






18. 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






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






20. Testing software components that are separately testable. Also module program and unit testing.






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






29. Response of the application to an input






30. A type of review that involves visual examination of documents to detect defects such as violations of development standards and non-conformance to higher-level documentation.






31. A unique identifier for each incident report generated during test execution.






32. Requirements Analysis - Design - Coding - Integration - Implementation - Maintenance






33. One defect prevents the detection of another.






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






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






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






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






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






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






40. Ability of software to provide appropriate performance relative to amount of resources used.






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






42. Conditions required to begin testing activities.






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






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






45. Linear Code Sequence and Jump.






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






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






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






49. An analysis that determines the portion of code on software executed by a set of test cases






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