Question No: 1

MultipleChoice

An iPhone application identifies and counts all purchases of a particular product from a shopping website. The application incorrectly counts purchase attempts by including both failed attempts, and also those where the purchase was terminated by the user before completion. Testing has identified that the problem was located in the 'purchase identification' module, where the first stage in the purchasing process was counted, rather than a successful confirmed purchase.

Which option best statements correctly identifies what has happened? [K2]

Options

AThe application failed because of a defect in the purchase identification module caused by a programmer mistake or an error in the specification.

BAn error by the programmer led to a mistake in the purchase identification module and this caused a defect in the application

CA defect in the purchase identification module caused by a mistake in the module specification led to a defect in the overall application

DA bug in the purchase identification module caused a fault in the application

Question No: 2

MultipleChoice

How does software testing contribute to the quality of delivered software? [K2]

Options

ABy detecting and removing all the defects in the delivered code and ensuring that all tests adhere to the quality standards set for the project

BBy measuring reliability of the software and ensuring that it is always above 99.99%

CBy identifying root causes of defects from past projects and using the lessons learned to improve processes and thus help to reduce the defect count

DBy detecting all deviations from coding good practice and ensuring that these are corrected

Question No: 3

MultipleChoice

(ii) Statement coverage and/or decision coverage can be measured for existing test cases.

(iii) The knowledge and experience of people are used to derive test cases.

(iv) Test cases are derived from a model or specification of the system.

Options

Question No: 5

MultipleChoice

According to the ISTQB Glossary, regression testing is required for what purpose?

Options

ATo verify the success of corrective actions.

BTo prevent a task from being incorrectly considered completed.

CTo ensure that defects have not been introduced by a modification.

Question No: 6

MultipleChoice

Test script TransVal 3.1 tests transaction validation via screen TRN 003B. According to the specification (PID ver 1.3 10b iv) the validation screen should not accept future dated transactions. Test script TransVal 3.1 passes. Test script eod 1.4 tests end of day processing and is run after the execution of TransVal 3.1 using data entered during that test

Which option best is the BEST detail on an incident report? [K3]

Options

ATitle. End of Day failure.. Reproducible. Yes. Description. Script eod 1.4 fails when the first transaction of the day is a future dated transaction. Screen shot of the failure attached.

BTitle. Transaction input screen validation..Reproducible. Yes. Description. Script eod 1..4 fails . Screen shot of the failure attached. Validation of transaction entryon screen TRN-003B should not allow future dated transactions -- see PID ver 1.3 para 10b iv.

CTitle. Screen TRN-003B validation of transaction date.. Reproducible. No. Description. When a future dated transaction is processed by the end of day process, a failure can occur. This does not always happen. Screen shot of the failure attached.

DTitle. Screen TRN-003B validation of transaction date. Reproducible. Yes. Description. Script eod 1.4 fails when the first transaction of the day is a future dated transaction. Screen shot of the failure attached. Validation of transaction entry on screen TRN-003B should not allow future dated transactions -- see PID ver 1.3 para 10b iv.

Question No: 7

MultipleChoice

Why might a RAD approach be a better option for the test manager rather than a sequential development? 2 credits

Options

AIt will extend the development team's abilities and enhance future delivery capabilities.

BIt will allow the marketing, clerical and testing staff to validate and verify the early screen prototypes.

CTime-box constraints will guarantee code releases are delivered on schedule.

DMore time can be spent on test execution as less formal documentation is required.

Question No: 8

BBoundary Value Analysis

CError Guessing

DExploratory Testing

Question No: 10
