You are testing a scale system that determines shipping rates for a regional web-based auto parts distributor. Due to regulations, shipments cannot exceed 100 lbs. You want to include boundary value analysis as part of your black-box test design.

How many tests will you need to execute to achieve 100% two-value boundary value analysis?

In what way does root cause analysis contribute to quality assurance?

You are working in an Agile team where the testers are being accused of slowing down the process because of the time system testing is taking. Which of the following would be an approach that would better spread the skills of the team to complete the tasks?

Which of the following is an example of debugging?

Which of the following is a true statement about exhaustive testing?

If you need to provide a report showing test case execution coverage of the requirements, what do you need to track?

Who normally writes the test plan for a project?

Your team has conducted a quality risk analysis and has determined the likelihood, impact and mitigation plan for each identified risk. This information should be captured in what work product?

You are working with a junior tester who has been given a user story to test. They have created only one positive path test for the story. You know there are more areas that should be tested for this story, including negative scenarios. Which of the following generic skills do they appear to be lacking?

Which of the following is an example of a good testing practice?

Which development approach captures the requirements in a simple test case format?

Usability testing is an example of which type of testing?

You have been receiving daily builds from the developers. Even though they are documenting the fixes they are including in each build, you are finding that the fixes either aren't in the build or are not working. What type of testing is best suited for finding these issues?

Your team has just completed a retrospective. They have discussed what was successful and should be retained, and they discussed what improvements are needed. What else do they need to discuss in order to recognize process improvements?

Your organization has decided to implement DevOps. One of the biggest concerns from the operations people is that there have been ongoing performance issues in production. How will implementing DevOps and CI/CD help with this problem?

Which of the following techniques is a form of static testing?

You are frequently asked to participate in reviews of requirements. Unfortunately, you usually receive the document to be reviewed the night before the review meeting will be held. This is resulting in your not doing a thorough review and having to work significant overtime to get the review done. What review success factor is missing from this process?

What is the main difference between static and dynamic testing?

If a review session is led by the author of the work product, what type of review is it?

If test cases are derived from looking at the code, what type of test design technique is being used?

How is statement coverage determined?

You are working on a project with very tight deadlines. The code is being developed but is not yet executable. What type of testing could you apply that would help find defects now?

If you are using error guessing to target your testing, which type of testing are you doing?

When exploratory testing is conducted using time-boxing and test charters, what is it called?

You are writing some acceptance criteria for a story. You have decided to make a list of all the likely inputs to the code and the expected outputs based on those inputs. What format are you using?

You are testing a banking application that allows a customer to withdraw 20, 100 or 500 dollars in a single transaction. The values are chosen from a drop-down list and no other values may be entered. How many equivalence partitions need to be tested to achieve 100% equivalence partition coverage?

You are testing an e-commerce transaction that has the following states and transitions:

1. Login (invalid) > Login
2. Login > Search
3. Search > Search
4. Search > Shopping Cart
5. Shopping Cart > Search
6. Shopping Cart > Checkout
7. Checkout > Search
8. Checkout > Logout

For a state transition diagram, how many transitions should be shown?

You are creating test cases for the following story, applying the ATDD approach:

As a hotel owner I want to reserve all the rooms on a floor before moving to the next floor So I can maximize the efficiency of the housekeeping staff

You have decided to apply boundary value analysis to this requirement and have identified the following partitions for the occupancy of a floor:

0 | 1 - floor full | overbooked

You also want to be sure that the software is usable by the staff and that it performs quickly in determining which floors have availability.

You have designed the following test cases:

1. Test with 1 occupant on the floor
2. Test with the floor full and ensure the next floor is made available for bookings
3. Test with 0 occupants on the floor and ensure that floor is only available when lower floors are fully booked
4. Test the usability to ensure hotel staff will find the software usable
5. Test for response time when the system is at average load and the hotel is 80% occupied

What are you missing?

Level of risk is determined by which of the following?

Which of the following is an example of a good exit criterion from system testing?

You are working on a project and have determined that exploratory testing is the best test technique to apply. Which testing quadrant are you using?

Which of the following is a project risk?

You have just completed testing on a major ERP implementation. The project has taken two years and is now ready for final approval before go-live. What test documentation should be produced at this time?

You are working on a project that is releasing software to the test team in iterations. In iteration 3 you identified a failure. The developer found and fixed the defect and released the fix in iteration 4. You confirmed the fix and closed the defect report. You are now testing iteration 7 and the failure has occurred again. You have talked to the developer and he doesn't know how or when the failure came back and has asked you to investigate.

How can configuration management help you gather more information on this failure?

You have received the following description section in a defect report:

The report executed per the attached steps, but the data was incorrect. For example, the information in column 1 was wrong. See the attached screenshot. This report is critical to the users and they will be unable to do their jobs without this information.

What is the biggest problem with this defect report?

What is the primary purpose of a test execution tool?

Which of the following is a risk with test automation?
