Respuesta
  • Coverage measurement tool
  • Test data preparation tool
  • Test design tool
  • Test execution tool

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
A typical test execution tool could provide all of the following except:
Respuesta
  • Capture/playback facilities
  • Prediction of expected results
  • A scripting language for recording tests
  • Comparison of actual to expected results

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
Test harnesses:
Respuesta
  • Can be used to execute pre-recorded tests
  • Can be used to generate test cases
  • Can be used to provide stubs and drivers

Respuesta
  • Test execution tool
  • Performance testing tool
  • Review tool
  • Test data preparation tool

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
Which type of automated tool provides objective measures of what structural elements have been exercised by tests?
Respuesta
  • Static analyser
  • Coverage measurement
  • Test management
  • Test execution

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
Some types of tool can be intrusive. This consequence of this is called:
Respuesta
  • The test effect
  • The probe effect
  • The overhead
  • Interference

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
Performance testing tools can:
Respuesta
  • Report on code efficiency
  • Measure the percentage of test conditions tested
  • Forecast response times and likely variances
  • Measure response times and variances

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
Which type of testing tool monitors executing software for anomalies?
Respuesta
  • Test execution tool
  • Static analysis tool
  • Test harness
  • Dynamic analysis tool

Pregunta 16

Pregunta
Test Execution tools are most beneficial for:-
Respuesta
  • White-box testing
  • Regression testing
  • Black-box testing
  • Re-testing

Pregunta 17

Pregunta
Data quality assessment tools are most beneficial for:-
Respuesta
  • Reviewing and verifying data migration rules
  • Generating accurate test data
  • Analysing test output data for correctness
  • Analysing test input data for correctness

Pregunta 18

Pregunta
Data-driven and keyword-driven are automation approaches relating to:
Respuesta
  • Test data preparation tools
  • Data quality assessment tools
  • Incident management tools
  • Test execution tools

Pregunta 19

Pregunta
Which of the following is correct concerning data-driven and keyword-driven approaches to test automation?
Respuesta
  • Data-driven uses generic scripts, keyword-driven uses specific scripts
  • There is no difference, they are effectively the same thing
  • Data-driven embeds test data in a spreadsheet, keyword-driven doesn’t
  • Keyword-driven embeds both test data and keywords in a spreadsheet

  • i, ii, iii
  • ii, iv, v
  • ii, iii, v

Pregunta 21

Pregunta
Potential benefits of using tools include:-
Respuesta
  • Less need for testing
  • Less regression testing
  • Greater consistency and repeatability
  • Less need for metrics

Pregunta 22

Pregunta
What is not a main consideration for tool selection?
Respuesta
  • A proof of concept
  • Evaluation against clear requirements
  • Vendor evaluation
  • Visit to a tools fair or exhibition

Pregunta 23

Pregunta
A new tool should be initially introduced to the test environment:
Respuesta
  • In a large, business critical project
  • To every ongoing project immediately
  • Only on projects with experienced project managers
  • In a pilot project

Pregunta 24

Pregunta
Which of the following is an objective of a pilot project for the introduction of a testing tool?
Respuesta
