5. Ken finds the quality of the tea locally available to be so low, that he decides to research superior teas around the world. He decides to market, sell and distribute these superior teas via the web. His marketing strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website that has fast loading graphics, high availability, superior usability and fast response times. The website will offer the following:
- An innovative interactive catalogue of teas, which not only enables customers to buy the product, but also enables them to provide feedback by rating the teas (which will influence his stock purchasing levels).
- Provide the customer with the ability to use secure credit card transactions.
- Provide the customer with the ability to give general feedback.
Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers who are experienced in web development Ken, although he doesn't have a technical skillset, is concerned with quality. He doesn't believe a lot of documentation is necessary and he wants the website to be completed quickly. The test basis contains the following:
- Story boards that show the information flow and page links through the site.
- HTML pages developed to date
- A set of non-functional requirements.
With the strategy taking shape, it is decided that exploratory testing should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Ken's overall objectives. You have now been given the task of identifying the exploratory tests, which will be executed as test sessions.
Which of the options below state what you will typically use for identifying the exploratory tests?
A) Create test chatters to be used to guide the testing
B) Use external testers on the team to provide a new approach and fresh view to the testing effort
C) Apply equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis using the storyboard ideas as a basis to maximise functional coverage
D) Define low-level test cases to be executed by the end users.
