Free iSQI CTFL_Syll2018 Exam Actual Questions

Note: Premium Questions for CTFL_Syll2018 were last updated On Feb. 24, 2026 (see below)

Question #1

An airline's frequent flyer's club awards benefits depending on which tier a customer is in. The software must determine which tier to allocate a customer to based on an input value of total Credits Earned to date

Customers initially join the Silver Tier and remain in that tier for the first 400 Credits Earned The next 400 Credits Earned moves the customer into the Gold Tier. The next 600 Credits Earned moves the customer into the Platinum Tier Further Credits Earned moves the customer into the Concierge Tier.

Test Cases have been written with the following total Credits Earned input values:

TC1 -400 Credits

TC2 - 500 Credits

TC3 - 800 Credits

TC4-1500 Credits

Applying the Equivalence Partitioning test design technique, what percentage of valid Equivalence Partitions have these 4 test cases collectively achieved?

Reveal Solution Hide Solution
Correct Answer: D

Equivalence Partitioning is a black-box test design technique that divides input data of a software module into partitions of equivalent data from which test cases can be derived. In this context, the valid equivalence partitions are:

Silver Tier: 0 to 400 Credits

Gold Tier: 401 to 800 Credits

Platinum Tier: 801 to 1400 Credits

Concierge Tier: 1401+ Credits

The test cases provided cover all these partitions:

TC1 covers the Silver Tier boundary at 400 Credits.

TC2 covers within the Gold Tier at 500 Credits.

TC3 covers the Gold Tier boundary at 800 Credits.

TC4 covers within the Concierge Tier at 1500 Credits.

Since all valid partitions are covered by the test cases, 100% of the valid Equivalence Partitions have been achieved.


Question #2

Which of the following is NOT an example of a typical risk-based testing activity?

Reveal Solution Hide Solution
Correct Answer: A

Risk-based testing is an approach to testing that prioritizes and focuses on testing activities based on the level of risk associated with each feature or function of the system under test. Risk-based testing aims to optimize the use of time, resources, and techniques for testing by identifying and addressing the most critical and likely sources of failure or harm in the system under test. Some examples of typical risk-based testing activities are:

Brainstorming sessions are held with a wide variety of stakeholders to identify possible failures in the system: This activity is part of the risk identification process, which involves gathering information and opinions from different perspectives and sources to discover potential risks in the system under test.

Tests are prioritized to ensure that those associated with critical parts of the system are executed earlier: This activity is part of the risk analysis and evaluation process, which involves assessing the probability and impact of each risk and ranking them according to their severity and importance.

The focus of testing is shifted to an area in the system where tests find more defects than expected: This activity is part of the risk mitigation and monitoring process, which involves taking actions to reduce or eliminate the risks and tracking their status and progress.

The evaluation of a risk-management tool to decide which tool to use for future projects is not an example of a typical risk-based testing activity because it is not directly related to testing the system under test based on its risks. Rather, it is an example of a tool selection or evaluation activity, which involves comparing and choosing a tool that can support or enhance the testing process based on criteria such as functionality, usability, reliability, compatibility, cost, etc. You can find more information about risk-based testing in [A Study Guide to the ISTQB Foundation Level 2018 Syllabus], Chapter 3, Section 3.4.


Question #3

What type of test design technique is the most effective in testing screen-dialog flows?

Reveal Solution Hide Solution
Correct Answer: A

Screen-dialog flows are sequences of screens and dialogs that represent the user interface and interaction of a system.Use case testing is a technique that uses use cases as a test basis to derive test cases1.A use case is a description of interactions between actors and a system to achieve a goal1. Use case testing is the most effective technique in testing screen-dialog flows, as it can capture the user requirements, scenarios, and expected outcomes of the system.Boundary value testing is a technique that uses boundary values as a test basis to derive test cases1.A boundary value is an input value or output value on the edge of an equivalence partition or at the smallest or largest value of a range1. Boundary value testing is not the most effective technique in testing screen-dialog flows, as it is more suitable for testing numerical inputs and outputs.Statement testing and coverage is a technique that uses statements in the source code as a test basis to measure the coverage achieved by a test suite1.A statement is a minimal executable unit of source code1. Statement testing and coverage is not the most effective technique in testing screen-dialog flows, as it is more suitable for testing the internal logic and structure of the code.State transition testing is a technique that uses state transition diagrams as a test basis to derive test cases1.A state transition diagram shows the states of a system and the transitions between them triggered by events or conditions1. State transition testing is not the most effective technique in testing screen-dialog flows, as it is more suitable for testing systems that have complex or dynamic behavior based on different states.


Question #4

Where and by whom is Beta testing normally performed?

Reveal Solution Hide Solution
Correct Answer: A

Beta testing is a type of acceptance testing that is normally performed by customers or potential customers at their own locations. Beta testing is done after the software product has passed the internal testing and quality assurance processes and is ready for release or deployment. Beta testing allows the customers or users to evaluate the software product in their real environment and provide feedback and suggestions for improvement. Beta testing can also help identify defects, compatibility issues, usability problems, or performance bottlenecks that might not have been detected during the internal testing. You can find more information about beta testing in [A Study Guide to the ISTQB Foundation Level 2018 Syllabus], Chapter 2, Section 2.3.

Which of the following BEST describes the relationship between test planning and test execution? [K2]
