ISTQB_CH1

A company recently purchased a commercial off-the-shelf application to automate their bill-paying process. They now plan to run an acceptance test against the package prior to putting it into production. Which of the following is their most likely reason for testing?

• To build confidence in the application

• To detect bugs in the application

• To gather evidence for a lawsuit

• To train the users

According to ISTQB Glossary, a risk releates to which of the following?

• Negative feedback to the tester

• Negative consequences that will occur

• Negative consequences that could occur

• Negative consequences for the test object

Ensuring that test design starts during the requirements definition phase is important to enable which of the following test objectives?

• Preventing defects in the system.

• Finding defects through dynamic testing

• Gaining confidence in the system

• Finishing the project on time

Which of the following statements are true?

• ii. iii. iv are true; i and v are false

• i, ii, v are true; iii and iv are false

• iv, v are true; i, ii and iii are false

• ii, iii, are true; i, iv, and v are false

A test term consistently finds between 90% and 95% of the defects present in the system under test. While the test manager understands that this is a good defect-detection percentage in the test group, saying that the test team miss to many bugs. Given that the user are generally happy with the system and that the failures which have occured have general been low impact, which of the following testing principles is most likely to help the test manager explain to these managers and executives why some defects are likely to be missed?

• Exhaustive testing is impossible

• Defect clustering

• Pesticide paradox

• Absence-of-errors fallacy

According to ISTQB Glossary, regression testing is required for what purpose?

• To verify the success of corrective actions

• To prevent a task from being incorrectly considered completed

• To ensure that the defects have not been introduced by a modification

• To motivate better unit testing by the programmers.

Which of the following is most important to promote and maintain good relation-ships between testers and developers?

• Understanding what managers value about testing

• Explaining test results in a neutral fashion

• Identifying potential customer workarounds for bugs

• Promoting better quality software when ever possible

• The root cause

• The error

• The Failure

• The defect

programmer working code which is very complex.Which the following is testing principle that may affect his work?

• Pesticide Paradox

• Component testing

• Defect clustering

• Early testing

which activity in the fundamental test process include evaluation of the testability of the requirements and the system?

• Testing implementation and execution

• Test analysis and design

• Test analysis

• Test planning and control
