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. Application Under Test






2. A basic block that can be selected for execution based on a program construct in which one of two or more alternative program path is available






3. Computer Aided Software Testing






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






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

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






8. Testing whether the system is compatible with other systems with which it should communicate.






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






10. Use analytical risk-based testing strategies - define realistic objectives for testing - with metrics - Instititutes continuous test process improvement based on lessons learned






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






12. Testing the changes to an operational system or the impact of a changed environment to an operational system






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






14. executing the software






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






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






17. The percentage of branches that have been exercised by a test suite. 100% - Implies both 100% decision coverage and 100% statement coverage






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






19. 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.






20. Provide critical information during project






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






22. Testing software through executing it.






23. Kind of unit testing - internal working of software






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






25. 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






26. Once the alpha phase is complete development enters the beta phase. Versions of the software known as beta-versions are released to a limited audience outside of the company to ensure that the product has few faults or bugs. black box






27. A test case design technique for a component in which test cases are designed which include representatives of boundary values - the defined limits of an output domain.






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






29. Stakeholder stakeholder satisfaction with test results report






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






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






32. 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






33. 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






34. 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






35. Model-based testing refers to software testing where test cases are derived in whole or in part from a model that describes some (usually functional) aspects of the system under test.






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






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






38. 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.






39. Black-box tests conducted once the software has been integrated






40. Tests that use representative sets of programs and data designed to evaluate the performance of computer hardware and software in a given configuration






41. An approach to testing in which test cases are designed based on descriptions and/or knowledge of business processes






42. The process of testing to determine the efficiency of a software product






43. An anomaly or flaw in a delivered work product. found during early lifecycle phases A defect can be any kind of issue you want tracked and resolved.
