Explanation

Question 7 of 17

1

Use cases are beneficial to testers because:

Select one of the following:

  • Process flows are based on typical business usage.

  • They are created independently by testers.

  • They divide inputs into equivalence partitions.

  • They describe allowable transitions.

Explanation

Question 8 of 17

1

What is a valid boundary value?

Select one of the following:

  • Any valid input entered by the user.

  • Any test value inside a partition.

  • A value identified by the boundary value analysis that falls within a valid partition.

  • A boundary test that gives a valid result.

Explanation

Question 9 of 17

1
