A Test Analyst is investigating what should be tested for interoperability between two systems. In addition to looking at the information exchange between the systems, what else should be
identified for testing?
Based on the system state transition diagram of an ATM system shown below, using the state transition test technique which of the following is an example of a test case required to achieve 1-switch coverage?
You've created a checklist for an upcoming requirements/use case review. You have included validating the testability of each requirement, and establishing acceptance criteria for each requirement.
You've ensured that each requirement and use case has a unique identifier that complies with company policy. What else should you add to the checklist?
In the recent past, you have learned that test automation just using capture & playback tooling, possibly enhanced with some test programming, has limitations. For the next banking project, that will be run using Agile methods, you want to implement a keyword-driven test automation approach. You have already started to define some high-level test cases for the account transfer user story:
TC 1 transfer € 150 from Lars to Ann, verify Ann's balance to be € 150
TC 2 transfer € 300 from Tim to Ann, verify Ann's balance to be € 450
In the context of implementing the keyword-driven test automation approach, which of the following activities should now be conducted by the Test Analyst?
You are testing a dictionary lookup mobile application. When the user enters a word, the definition of that word is returned. This application will run on iOS and Android, on the latest versions
of the devices and the operating systems, plus all devices and operating system released in the last three years. The target users are university students.
Which of the following is a test condition that can be used to verify the user error protection quality sub-characteristic?
You have been informed by your Test Manager that the next project you will be working on as a Test Analyst will be using an iterative model rather than the V-model your projects normally employ. What might be an adjustment you and your test team might expect to make?
You have been given a test charter to conduct exploratory testing for accepting credit and debit cards for an e-commerce system. You started with the credit cards and you have found that, valid or
invalid, they are never accepted. You have logged this as a defect. What should you do now?
Consider the following decision table:
This decision table has been created to test the following specification: Persons that study at a university (C1) and have parents whose total annual income is less than € 30.000 (C2), receive a scholarship In in addition to these qualifications, if they also live away from home (C3), they receive an addition to their scholarship (A2) How many cases are left when this decision table is collapsed?
You are testing software which is being ported from one platform to another. There are no documented requirements and there is no time budgeted for writing them.
Which type of test technique is most useful in this situation?
Although usability is an important aspect for a new planning system, due to availability constraints, the usability evaluation shall be performed without Which of the following is a usability technique that can be applied in this situation?
You have been provided with the following decision table that was used for smoke testing the previous release of a set of hotel reservation software.
During discussions with the Test Manager you agreed that software behavior focused on the date of reservation, especially as midnight approaches, presented additonal risk.
You need to add more tests to provide more thorough coverage of the test conditions. Which of the following techniques should you use to design more tests?
You have been assigned to design test cases to be used by an experienced team to test software that controls the braking mechanism for commuter trains. Before the software can be released, the test evidence will be reviewed by an external safety team to ensure that test coverage is sufficient and that risk mitigation has achieved the appropriate level.
What level of test cases should be written for this application?
You are building tests using the classification tree below. You have been told that pairwise testing would be a good approach to this problem. When you apply the pairwise testing technique what would be the expected effect on the number of test cases?
During test execution defects have been found including non-compliance to requirements, calculations that produce incorrect results, and improper handling of data or situations.
Which of the following test types is most likely being performed?
Which of the following software development lifecycle models requires the earliest involvement from the Test Analyst?
The Acme Elevator company uses state-transition diagrams to document the behavior of their elevator doors.
The following text is taken from one of their requirements documents. Convert it into the equivalent state-transition diagram:
When the doors are open, the close command starts the doors closing.
When the doors are closing, the closed sensor indicates that the doors are fully closed.
When the doors are closed, the open command starts the doors opening.
When the doors are opening, the open sensor indicates that the doors are fully open.
If the doors are closing, the open command will start the doors opening.
If the doors are opening, the close command will start the doors closing.
Which state transition diagram most closely represents Acme's elevator door rules?
Consider the following state diagram for a simple ATM.
The decision has been made to add the following capabilities:
Allow the customer to go from Get Balance to Deposit, Withdrawal or Menu.
Allow the customer to go from Deposit to Withdrawal, Get Balance or Menu
From Withdrawal the customer still will be able to go only to Menu.
How many test cases are required to achieve 100% 0-switch coverage of the new and existing capabilities?
While performing system testing, you have discovered what you believe to be a defect. You have performed the following steps:
1. Compared actual with expected results
2. Logged actual results
3. Identified the specific versions tested as well as specific environment configurations
4. Logged information in the context of the level of testing and the strategy
What other step should you perform at the time you are logging the incident?
As a Test Analyst on a project using the V-model lifecycle model, you have been working with expert business users for a program designed to assist car buyers in selecting options for new car models. The program has been in use for some time, and now your company has decided to implement some significant improvements, based on customer and sales representative's feedback.
You visit specific locations and gather information on how the product is currently being used, spend time with expert users, and walk through their envisioned scenarios.
Based on this information, what are you using for your test basis and what information is still missing?
A car navigation system needs to be integrated in the overall car software It is important to verify that the car navigation is functioning correctly once integrated. Thus functional correctness is considered to be important.
Which of the following techniques is most likely to support the required functional correctness testing?
