Which types of failures (1-4) fit which test levels (A-D) BEST? 1. Failures in system behavior as it deviates from the user's business needs 2. Failures in communication between components 3. Failures in logic in a module 4. Failures in not correctly implemented business rules A. Component testing B. Component integration testing C. System testing D. Acceptance testing

1D, 2B, 3A, 4C

Which TWO of the following tasks belong MAINLY to a testing role?

Configure test environments and Report on achieved coverage

You work in a team that develops a mobile application for food ordering. In the current iteration the team decided to implement the payment functionality.

Deciding that the team should test if it is possible to properly share payment between many users

Which of the following is NOT a benefit of static testing?

Having less expensive defect management due to the ease of detecting defects later in the SDLC

Which of the following options shows an example of test activities that contribute to success?

Having testers involved during various software development lifecycle (SDLC) activities will help to detect defects in work products.

Which of the following statements BEST describes the acceptance test-driven development (ATDD) approach?

In ATDD, tests are created, based on acceptance criteria to drive the development of the related software

Consider the following rule: "for every SDLC activity there is a corresponding test activity". In which SDLC models does this rule hold?

In sequential, incremental, and iterative SDLC models

Which of the following is a benefit of early and frequent feedback?

It helps avoid requirements misunderstandings

You are testing a user story with three acceptance criteria: AC1, AC2 and AC3. AC1 is covered by test case TC1, AC2 by TC2, and AC3 by TC3. The test execution history had three test runs on three consecutive versions of the software as follows: ** Image for problem is #14 on Pratice Exam A** Tests are repeated once you are informed that all defects found in the test run are corrected and a new version of the software is available. Which of the above tests are executed as regression tests?

Only 5, 7

Which of the arguments below would you use to convince your manager to organize retrospectives at the end of each release cycle?

Process weaknesses identified during the retrospective can be analyzed and serve as a to do list for the organization's continuous process improvement program

How is the whole team approach present in the interactions between testers and business representatives?

Testers help business representatives to create suitable acceptance tests

You have been assigned as a tester to a team producing a new system incrementally. You have noticed that no changes have been made to the existing regression test cases for several iterations and no new regression defects were identified. Your manager is happy, but you are not. Which testing principle explains your skepticism?

Tests wear out.

Which of the following statements describe a valid test objective?

To reduce the risk level of the test object and to build confidence in the quality in the level.

Which of the following is NOT an example of the shift left approach?

Writing a test script before setting up the configuration management process

The reviews being used in your organization have the following attributes: - There is the role of a scribe -The main purpose is to evaluate quality - The meeting is led by the author of the work product - There is individual preparation - A review report is produced Which of the following review types is MOST likely being used? a) Informal review b) Walkthrough c) Technical review d) Inspection

b) Walkthrough

You are testing a simplified apartment search form which has only two search criteria: floor (with three possible options: ground floor; first floor; second or higher floor) garden type (with three possible options: no garden; small garden; large garden) Only apartments on the ground floor have gardens. The form has a built-in validation mechanism that will not allow you to use the search criteria which violate this rule. Each test has two input values: floor and garden type. You wan

b)4

Which of the following is a characteristic of experience-based test techniques? a) Test cases are created based on detailed design information b) Items tested within the interface code section are used to measure coverage c) The techniques heavily rely on the tester's knowledge of the software and the business domain d) The test cases are used to identify deviations from the requirements

c) The techniques heavily rely on the tester's knowledge of the software and the business domain

Which of these statements is NOT a factor that contributes to successful reviews? a) Participants should dedicate adequate time for the review b) Splitting large work products into small parts to make the required effort less intense c) Participants should avoid behaviors that might indicate boredom, exasperation, or hostility to other participants d) Failures found should be acknowledged, appreciated, and handled objectively

d) Failures found should be acknowledged, appreciated, and handled objectively
