21)

How can white-box testing be applied during acceptancetesting?

A.

To check if all code statements and code decision paths havebeen executed

B.

To check if large volumes of data can be transferred betweenintegrated systems

C.

To cover all web page navigations

D.

To check if all work process flows have been covered

22)

Which of the following provides the BEST description ofexploratory testing?

A.

Testing based on the tester's experience, knowledge andintuition

B.

A testing practice in which an in-depth investigation of thebackground of the test object is used to identify potentialweaknesses that are examined by test cases

C.

An approach to testing whereby the testers dynamically designsand execute tests based on their knowledge, exploration of the testitem and the results of previous tests

D.

An approach to test design in which test activities are plannedas uninterrupted sessions of test analysis and design, often usedin conjunction with checklist-based testing

23)

A product owner says that your role as a tester on an Agile teamis to catch all the bugs before the end of each iteration. Which ofthe following is a testing principle that could be used to respondto this (false) statement?

A.

Defect clustering

B.

Testing shows the presence of defects

C.

Absence of error fallacy

D.

Root cause analysis

24)

Which of the following provides the definition of the term testcase?

A.

Subset of the value domain of a variable within a component orsystem in which all values are expected to be treated the samebased on the specification

B.

A source to determine an expected result to compare with theactual result of the system under test

C.

Work products produced during the test process for use inplanning, designing, executing, evaluating and reporting ontesting

D.

A set of preconditions, inputs, actions, expected results andpostconditions, developed based on test conditions

25)

Which of the following BEST explains a benefit of independenttesting?

A.

The use of an independent test team allows project management toassign responsibility for the quality of the final deliverable tothe test team, so ensuring everyone is aware that quality is thetest team’s overall responsibility

B.

An independent test team can work totally separately from thedevelopers, need not be distracted with changing projectrequirements, and can restrict communication with the developers todefect reporting through the defect management system

C.

If a test team external to the organization can be afforded,then there are distinct benefits in terms of this external team notbeing so easily swayed by the delivery concerns of projectmanagement and the need to meet strict delivery deadlines

D.

When specifications contain ambiguities and inconsistencies,assumptions are made on their interpretation, and an independenttester can be useful in questioning those assumptions and theinterpretation made by the developer

26)

Which of the following statements about test estimationapproaches is CORRECT?

A.

With the metrics-based approach, the estimate is based on testmeasures from the project and so this estimate is only availableafter the testing starts

B.

With the expert-based approach, a group of expert usersidentified by the client recommends the necessary testingbudget

C.

With the expert-based approach, the test managers responsiblefor the different testing activities predict the expected testingeffort

D.

With the metrics-based approach, an average of the testing costsrecorded from several past projects is used as the testingbudget

27)

Which of the following statements CORRECTLY reflects the valueof static testing?

A.

Now that we require the use of static analysis, missedrequirements have decreased and communication between testers anddevelopers has improved

B.

Since we started using static analysis, we find coding defectsthat might have not been found by performing only dynamictesting

C.

Using static testing means we have better control and cheaperdefect management due to the ease of detecting defects later in thelifecycle

D.

By introducing reviews, we have found that both the quality ofspecifications and the time required for development and testinghave increased

28)

Which of the following statements BEST describes how test casesare derived from a use case?

A.

Test cases are derived by identifying the components included inthe use case and creating integration tests that exercise theinteractions of these components

B.

Test cases are generated by analyzing the interactions of theactors with the system to ensure the user interfaces are easy touse

C.

Test cases are created to exercise defined basic, exceptionaland error behaviors performed by the system under test incollaboration with actors

D.

Test cases are derived to exercise each of the decision pointsin the business process flows of the use case, to achieve 100%decision coverage of these flows

29)

A user story has just been added to the set offeatures that checks customers’ social media accounts and bankrecords to give personalized greetings on birthdays and otherpersonal milestones. Which of the following test techniques could aPROGRAMMER use during a unit test of the code to ensure thatcoverage of situations when the greetings ARE supposed to occur andwhen the greetings ARE NOT supposed to occur?

A.

B.

Decision testing

C.

Exploratory testing

D.

30)

What is decision coverage?

A.

The coverage of condition outcomes

B.

Decision coverage is a synonym for statement coverage

C.

The coverage of decision outcomes

D.

The coverage of executable statements
