A calculator software is used to calculate the result for 5+6. The user noticed that the result given is 6.This is an example of;

• Mistake
• Fault
• Error
• Failure

Which of the following s the most correct statement about state testing techniques?

• Static techniques can be used before all code is ready for execution
• Static techniques find more detects then dynamic techniques.
• Static techniques can be used by inexperienced users.
• Static techniques are always cheaper than dynamic techniques.

What is test oracle?

• The source of lest objectives
• The source for the actual results
• The source of expected results
• The source of input conditions

Which of the following statements is true?

• In Agile software development, work product documentation tends to be lightweight and manual tests tend to be often unscripted as they are often produced using experience-based test techniques
• Sequential development models impose the use of systematic test techniques and do not allow the use of experience-based test techniques
• In Agile software development, the first iterations are exclusively dedicated to testing activities, as testing will be used to drive development, which will be performed in the subsequent iterations
• Both in Agile software development and in sequential development models, such as the V-model, test levels tend to overlap since they do not usually have defined entry and exit criteria

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

• User acceptance tests are usually automated and aim to verify the acceptance criteria for user stories
• Acceptance criteria for user stories can include details on data definitions, for example by describing the format, allowed values, and default values for a data item
• Acceptance criteria for user stones should focus on positive scenarios, while negative scenarios should be excluded
• Tests derived from acceptance criteria for user stories are not included in any of the four testing quadrants

Which one of the following statements IS NOT a valid objective of testing?

• To build confidence in the level of quality of the test object.
• To find all defects in a product, ensuring the product is defect free.
• To find failures and defects
• To evaluate work products such as requirements, user stories, design, and code.

You are testing the latest version of an air-traffic control system prior to production deployment using exploratory testing. After following an unusual sequence of input steps, the system crashes. After the crash, you document a defect report with the following information:Title: System crashes unexpectedly during input.Brief summary: System crashes when an unusual sequence of inputs is used.Version: V1.001Test: Exploratory testing prior to production deploymentPriority: UrgentRisk: High

• Conclusions, recommendations, and approvals.
• Change history.
• Description of the defect to enable reproduction.
• Status of defect

Which one of the following statements correctly describes the term 'debugging'?

• There is no difference between debugging and testing.
• Debugging is a confirmation activity that checks whether fixes resolved defects.
• Debugging is the development activity that finds, analyses and fixes defects.
• Debugging is of no relevance in Agile development.

Which of the following answers describes a reason for adopting experience-based testing techniques?

• Experience-based test techniques provide more systematic coverage cnteria than black-box and white-box test techniques
• Experience-based test techniques completely rely on the tester's past experience for designing test cases.
• Experience-based test techniques allow designing test cases that are usually easier to reproducethan those designed with black-box and white-box test techniques.
• Experience-based test techniques tend to find defects that may be difficult to find with black-box and white-box test techniques and are often useful to complement these more systematic techniques.

Consider a given test plan which, among others, contains the following three sections: "Test Scope", "Testing Communication", and "Stakeholders". The features of the test object to be tested and those excluded from the testing represent information that is:

• not usually included in a test plan, and therefore in the given test plan it should not be specified neither within the three sections mentioned, nor within the others
• usually included in a test plan and, in the given test plan, it is more likely to be specified within "Test Scope" rather than in the other two sections mentioned
• usually included in a test plan and, in the given test plan, it is more likely to be specified within "Testing Communication" rather than in the other two sections mentioned
• usually included in a test plan and, in the given test plan, it is more likely to be specified within "Stakeholders" rather than in the other two sections mentioned
