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. 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






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






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






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






5. Testing in which two or more variants of a component or system are executed with the same inputs - the outputs compared and analyzed in cases of discrepancies






6. Risk based questions - depends on the schedule and risk based - business impact follow the 20-80 rules






7. Testing in which test cases are designed based on variable usage within the code.






8. A black box test design techniques in which test cases are designed to execute the combinations of inputs and/or stimuli (causes) shown in a decision table






9. An accidental condition that causes the failure of a component in the implementation model to perform its required behavior. A fault is the root cause of one or more defects identified by observing one or more failures.






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






11. Involves testing the systems responsible for the initiation and maintenance of user sessions. This will require testing the Input validation of login fields & Cookie security and Lockout testing . permitting unauthorised access.






12. executing the software






13. 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






14. A service oriented architecture (SOA) is a design model which relies on a collection of loosely coupled self contained services that communicate with each other through the internet and can be called from multiple clients in a standard fashion






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






16. They arise from mistakes and errors made by people in either a program's source code or its design that prevents it from working correctly or produces an incorrect result






17. Integration testing where no incremental testing takes place prior to all the system's components being combined to form the system.






18. Back end Testing means DataBase Testing. Normally a software product/application uses GUI front end for easyuser interaction.






19. 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






20. Application Under Test






21. An organizational structure consists of activities such as task allocation & coordination and supervision which are directed towards the achievement of organizational aims.[citation needed]






22. Similar to black box testing - structure of test cases in order to find defects and its strutured






23. 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






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






25. The percentage of executable statements that have been exercised by a test suite.






26. Testing in which the action of a test case is parameterized by externally defined data values - maintained as a file or spreadsheet. A common technique in Automated Testing






27. An analysis method that determines which parts of the software have been executed (covered) by the test case suite and which parts have not been executed and therefore may require additional attention.






28. A system under load. modeling the expected usage of a software program by simulating multiple users accessing the program's services concurrently.






29. A white box testing technique that exercises program loops






30. 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






31. The expected results or performance characteristics that define whether the test cases passed or failed






32. The typical grey box tester is permitted to set up or manipulate the testing environment - like seeding a database






33. Testing whether the system meets its specified objectives for maintainability.






34. Provide critical information during project






35. All about code and profiler & comments in the code naming convention etc... coding standards.It is like transparent






36. Testing one particular module - functionality heavily






37. Approach to doing something that generally give good results when applied appropriately and thoughfully






38. Knows about the software and test - no proper plan






39. Determine whether a system meets some specified standard. external organization as complying with the standard






40. Component testing of individual components in isolation from surrounding components - with surrounding components being simulated by stubs






41. Computer Aided Software Testing






42. Defined as any testing that occurs outside of the development environment. installed on. simply appear to be to run a setup program - can be used with confidence






43. The process of testing to determine the interoperability of a software product






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






45. Test activity aimed at proving the correct implementation of a required function at a level where the entire hardware/software chain involved in the execution of the function is available.






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






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






48. Testing practice for projects using agile methodologies - treating development as the customer of testing and emphasizing a test-first design paradigm






49. Stakeholder stakeholder satisfaction with test results report






50. Depends on the schedule and risk based - business impact follow the 20-80 rules
