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






2. GUI testing is the process of testing a graphical user interface to ensure it meets its written specifications






3. Testing software through executing it.






4. 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.






5. 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






6. 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






7. 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.






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






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






10. 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






11. 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






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






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






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






15. 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






16. 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.






17. Provide critical information during project






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






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






20. Testing using input values that should be rejected by the component or system






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






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






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






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






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






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






27. Computer Aided Software Testing






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






29. The totality of features and characteristics of a product or service that bears its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs." defined by ISO 8402 1986






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






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






32. 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






33. 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






34. 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.






35. Integration testing where system components are integrated into the system one at a time until the entire system is integrated.






36. Testing concerned with the accuracy of documentation.






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






38. 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+.






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






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






41. A test that exercises a feature of a product in full detail.






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






43. 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.






44. Kind of unit testing - internal working of software

46. Test case design






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






48. 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.
