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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






16. Input or combination of inputs required to test software.






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






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






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






20. Human action that generates an incorrect result.






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






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






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






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






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






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






27. Behavior or response of a software application that you observe when you execute the action steps in the test case.






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






29. Bug fault internal error problem etc. Flaw in software that causes it to fail to perform its required functions.






30. 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






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






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






33. 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).






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






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






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






37. Component - Integration - System - Acceptance






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






39. Waterfall iterative-incremental "V"






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






41. Actual inputs required to execute a test case






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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