Software Testing And Qa

Subject : it-skills
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. Informal method of usability inspection in the field of human-computer interaction. identifying the usability problems . involves evaluators examining the interface and judging its compliance






2. A scripting technique that uses data files to contain not only test data and expected results but also keywords related to the application being tested.






3. A white box test design technique in which test cases are designed to execute decision outcomes






4. A test case design technique for a component in which test cases are designed to execute representatives from equivalence classes






5. Gamma testing is a little-known informal phrase that refers derisively to the release of "buggy" (defect-ridden) products.






6. A test case design technique for a component in which test cases are designed to execute representatives from equivalence classes.






7. Root cause analyst - base of the problem - customer satisfaction report






8. A portion of a component's input or output domains for which the component's behaviour is assumed to be the same from the component's specification






9. Testing which covers all combinations of input values and preconditions for an element of the software under test






10. Examines an application's requirements for pre-existing software - initial states and configuration in order to maintain proper functionality






11. It is a whole - is the whole process form review to plans strategy and whole thing






12. Testing of programs or procedures used to convert data from existing systems for use in replacement systems.






13. Checks for memory leaks or other problems that may occur with prolonged execution






14. The percentage of decision outcomes that have been exercised by a test suite.






15. Black box testing - concrete box or functional testing is used to check that the outputs of a program - given certain inputs - conform to the functional specification of the program. It performs testing based on previously understood requirements (or






16. Formal or informal testing conducted during the implementation of a component or system usually in the development environment by developers






17. Testing conducted to evaluate whether systems or components pass data and control correctly to each other.






18. Verifying a product is accessible to the people having disabilities (deaf or blind or mentally disabled etc.).






19. A variation of Regression Testing. Testing conducted with multiple cycles in which errors found in test cycle N are resolved and the solution is retested in test cycle N+.






20. Coverage testing is concerned with the degree to which test cases exercise or cover the logic (source code) of the software module or unit. It is also a measure of coverage of code lines & code branches and code branch combinations






21. This term refers to making software specifically designed for a specific locality






22. A test that a user/sponsor and manufacturer/producer jointly perform on a finished - engineered product/system through black-box testing - as functional test & beta test & QA test & application test & confidence test & final test or end user test






23. In software development testing is usually required before release to the general public. This is known as the alpha phase.alpha testing.






24. Form of independent - interoperable services that can be composed and recomposed to fulfill multiple business requirements. . Each service internally accesses resources including databases - business rules - client devices






25. A test case design technique for a component in which test cases are designed to execute branch outcomes. A test method satisfying coverage criteria that require that for each decision point - each possible branch be executed at least once.






26. This technique for testing computer software does not require significant advanced planning and is tolerant of limited documentation for the target-of-test.






27. Testing carried out using no recognised test case design technique. It is also known as Exploratory Testing

34. Measure of amount of testing performed . determined by mapping test cases to requirements - Tracebility matrix is test coverage. Number of test caes executed divided by total number of test cases






35. Integration testing is the phase of software testing in which individual software modules are combined and tested as a group. It follows unit testing and precedes system testing






36. Fuzz testing is a software testing technique. The basic idea is to attach the inputs of a program to a source of random data. extremely simple and free of preconceptions about system behavior.






37. Can't see - test the functional testing - no access to code and testing is done on UI
