Demo Questions
Question 1
Which of the following descriptions is an example of the use of defect taxonomies?
- Grouping defects found in execution by functional areas
- Following a defect management process through testing
- Running tests with the aim of finding as many defects as possible
- Using a list of known defect types to penetrate the security of computer systems
Correct answer: D
Question 2
You are testing an ATM based on the following use case;
ATM start screen is showing
The user inserts card
The user types in PIN
The user selects ‘cash with receipt’
The user selects € 50
The user selects ‘no further service’
Expected results
The ATM provides €50 to the user
The ATM return the card and balance slip
The ATM clears the screen
The ATM returns to start menu in your test log which of the following could be noted as part of additional attention points?
- Issues regarding time-behavior
- Issues regarding interoperability
- More test cases needed to achieve full coverage
- Expected results not clearly defined
Correct answer: A
Question 3
Tax system
A tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than € 20.000 and who is married, the tax needs to be re-calculated. If the person also has more than two and less than five children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.
Applying equivalence partitioning to the “Tax System” specification, which of the following set of equivalence classes is most effective in testing the processing the number of children?
- 2, 4 and 6 children
- 2, 4 and 5 children
- 1, 3 and 6 children
- 3, 4 and 6 children
Correct answer: B
Question 4
Ken, an entrepreneur in Leeds finds the quality of the tea locally available 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 market strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website with graphics that are fast to load, has 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 to give general feedback
Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers that are experienced in web development. Ken, although he doesn't have 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 statement of non-functional requirements.
With the strategy taking shape, Ken asks your advice on the specific testing techniques that should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Ken’s overall objectives.
Which TWO of the following items may more frequently need to be explained in greater detail for nonfunctional defect reports than for a functional defect report?
- Expected results
- Steps to reproduce the defect
- Test data used to identify the fault
- Level of load on the system at the time of failure
- Actual results
Correct answer: AD
Question 5
A temperature unit holds the temperature between 10 degrees Celcius and –10 degrees Celcius. If the temperature drops below –10 or rises above 10 then an alarm rings. Boundary Value Analysis tests are drawn up using the approach of two test cases per boundary. The temperatures to be tested are:
- 11, 10, -11, -10
- 11, 10, 9, -11, -10, -9
- 11, 9, -9, -11
- 10, 9, -9, -10
Correct answer: A
Question 6
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?
- (i)
- (ii)
- (iii)
- (iv)
Correct answer: D
Question 7
A company wants to develop a web site to implement an on-line sales channel. The company has decided to do some usability testing, but resources are limited. The usability testing has therefore to be done as efficient as possible. Which THREE techniques would you recommend?
- SUMI
- Usability laboratory
- Use case testing
- Heuristic evaluation
- Equivalence partitioning
- Pairwise testing
- Exploratory testing
Correct answer: ACD
Question 8
Which of the following criteria on test progress would enable the business to determine a likely ‘go live’ date?
(i) Number of tests planned versus number of tests executed
(ii) Number of high priority defects outstanding
(iii) The test team’s timesheets in order to show how much effort has been devoted to testing
(iv) Number of tests passed and number failed
(v) Number of defects found in each development area
(vi) The rate at which defects are being found
- (ii), (iii), (iv)
- (i), (iii), (v)
- (i), (ii), (vi)
- (iv), (v), (vi)
Correct answer: C
Question 9
The use case will be used as a basis for the design of usability test scenario’s. As a tester you are asked to review the ATM use case from the perspective of usability testing.
As a tester you are asked to review the ATM use case provided below. The use case will be used as a basis for functionality testing to be performed later.
Which one of the comments, described hereafter, would be the MOST important one you would make?
- Acceptance criteria not defined
- Business priority is missing
- Post condition not defined
- Alternative flows are missing
Correct answer: D
Question 10
Tax system
A tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than € 20.000 and who is married, the tax needs to be re-calculated. If the person also has more than two and less than five children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.
How many input classes can be distinguished when applying equivalence partitioning to the “Tax System” specification?
- 5
- 6
- 7
- 8
Correct answer: B
