Question 1

Question
What is the MAIN benefit of designing tests early in the life cycle?
Answer
  • It helps prevent defects from being introduced into the code.
  • To identify defects in any software work product.

Question 2

Question
What is risk-based testing?
Answer
  • Risk-based testing is the term used for an approach to creating a test strategy that is based on prioritizing tests by risk. The basis of the approach is a detailed risk analysis and prioritizing of risks by risk level. Tests to address each risk are then specified, starting with the highest risk first.
  • Risk-based testing is used for testing systems for which the specification takes the form of rules or cause-effect combinations. In a decision table the inputs are listed in a column, with the outputs in the same column but below the inputs. The remainder of the table explores combinations of inputs to define the outputs produced.

Question 3

Question
What is the KEY difference between preventative and reactive approaches to testing?
Answer
  • Preventative tests are designed early; reactive tests are designed after the software has been produced.
  • It avoids author bias in defining effective tests.

Question 4

Question
What is the purpose of exit criteria?
Answer
  • The purpose of exit criteria is to define when a test level is completed.
  • The likelihood of an adverse event and the impact of the event determine the level of risk.

Question 5

Question
What determines the level of risk?
Answer
  • The likelihood of an adverse event and the impact of the event determine the level of risk.
  • The likelihood of level of risk and the impact of the event determine the level of risk.

Question 6

Question
When is used Decision table testing?
Answer
  • Decision table testing is used for testing systems for which the specification takes the form of rules or cause-effect combinations. In a decision table the inputs are listed in a column, with the outputs in the same column but below the inputs. The remainder of the table explores combinations of inputs to define the outputs produced.
  • Risk-based testing is the term used for an approach to creating a test strategy that is based on prioritizing tests by risk. The basis of the approach is a detailed risk analysis and prioritizing of risks by risk level. Tests to address each risk are then specified, starting with the highest risk first.

Question 7

Question
What is the MAIN objective when reviewing a software deliverable?
Answer
  • To identify defects in any software work product.
  • To test defects in any software work product.

Question 8

Question
Designing the test environment set-up and identifying any required infrastructure and tools are a part of which phase
Answer
  • A. Test Implementation and execution

  • iii. Verifying that the test environment has been set up correctly.
  • iv. Determining the exit criteria.
