[K2] 1 credit
A) Defect Taxonomies
B) Statement testing
C) Equivalence Partitioning
D) Vulnerability Scan
2. You are applying pairwise testing and using orthogonal arrays. The following steps are all part of the process to be followed.
i) Determine the number of choices for each variable ii) Map the test problem onto the orthogonal array iii) Construct the test cases iv) Identify the variables v) Locate an appropriate orthogonal array
What is the correct order of the above mentioned process steps?
[K3] 2 credits
A) iv, i, v, ii, iii
B) iv, ii, v, iii, i
C) i, ii, iv, v, iii
D) iv, i, iii, v, ii
3. A new web site must operate correctly with different browsers (Internet Explorer, Google
Chrome, Firefox, Netscape, Mozilla), using different plug-ins (Realplayer, Mediaplayer), will be receiving pages from different servers (IIS, Apache and WebLogic) and will be running on various server operation systems (windows 2007, XP, Linux)
Which of the following test techniques will you use to test this new web site in its various environments?
[K4] 3 credits
A) pairwise testing
B) use case testing
C) exploratory testing
D) decision table testing
4. Using the "Tax System" specification scenario as described above, using boundary value analysis, which would be the most interesting test set to explicitly test one single boundary value as defined in the "Tax System" specification?
[K3] 3 credits
A) (iv)
B) (i)
C) (iii)
D) (ii)
5. As a test analyst you are involved in the early stages of an acceptance test for a Product Data Management system. You are asked to write test designs and test cases based on use cases. An early version of the system is also already available. It is a known fact that on the implementation level many things will change (including the user-interface). The tests will be carried by end-users with much domain knowledge who have also been involved in the project defining the user requirements and reviewing documentation.
What is the BEST option regarding the level of detail and documentation required for test cases in the project?
[K4] 3 credits
A) Logical test cases only since the end-user have extensive domain knowledge and many changes are expected thus reducing testware maintenance effort
B) Logical test cases supported by concrete test cases to allow for traceability and enable future changes
C) Concrete test cases only since the end-users have extensive domain knowledge
D) Detailed concrete test cases since many re-runs of the tests are expected
