Questions and Answers

Which of the following best describes the meaning and benefit of static methods for evaluation of results of software development?

  • Identifying defects without executing the code, leading to early detection and cost savings (correct)
  • Identifying defects through user feedback, ensuring customer satisfaction
  • Identifying defects through system integration, ensuring smooth deployment
  • Identifying defects through code execution, ensuring comprehensive testing coverage

What is the fundamental approach of manual static testing techniques (reviews)?

  • Testing the software with various input values to ensure functionality
  • Automated scanning of code to identify syntax errors and bugs
  • Performing real-time testing of software during its execution
  • In-depth examination of work products to identify defects without code execution (correct)

What is the key difference between control-flow and data-flow analysis of program code?

  • Data-flow analysis is used for code optimization, while control-flow analysis is used for error detection
  • Control-flow analysis focuses on the sequence of execution, while data-flow analysis tracks the usage of variables (correct)
  • Control-flow analysis tracks variable usage, while data-flow analysis focuses on execution sequence
  • Control-flow analysis is used for dynamic testing, while data-flow analysis is used for static testing
