Quiz ISTQB - P.01 - by HuongVT18

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

• It is normally the responsibility of the developer during unit testing
• It is a form of stress testing
• It is not feasible except in the case of trivial software
• It is commonly done with test automation

In which Development model may the testers be involved in debugging and component testing?

• Agile and iterative models
• Waterfall Model
• V-model
• Mobile Model

Below situation tells one of testing principle. What is it? One tester has tested software applications running on mobile phone for 5 years. He has great deal of information for testing the application and is able to test faster than anyone else. However, he has not put sufficient efforts for deriving new test cases and modifying them to find new defects any longer, which lead to finding less and less defects. What is the basic test principle that he has ignored?

• Pesticide paradox
• Absence-of-errors fallacy
• Defect clustering
• Early testing

Which of the following is a correct relationship between quality control, quality assurance, and quality management?

• Quality Control includes both quality management and quality assurance
• Quality control and quality assurance are the same and quality management is part of them
• Quality management includes both quality control and quality assurance
• Quality Assurance includes both quality management and quality control

Comparing actual results with expected results occurs during which activity in the fundamental test process?

• Test Monitoring & Control
• Test Analysis
• Test Implementation
• Test Execution

Designing and prioritizing test cases occurs during which activity in the fundamental test process?

• Test planning
• Test Completion
• Test analysis
• Test Design

What is the test basis?

• The method used to systematically devise test conditions
• The body of knowledge used for test analysis and design
• The point during software development when testing should start
• The source to determine the actual results from a set of tests Explanation. The test basis is “a source to determine expected results to compare with the actual result of the system under test”.

Which of the following is an example of debugging?

• A tester finds a defect and reports it
• A developer finds and fixes a defect
• A tester retests a fix from the developer and finds a regression
• A developer performs unit testing

Which of the following is considered as a type of validation?

• Checking whether reported defects are solved
• Checking whether the system meets user and stakeholders need
• Checking whether the system meets the user stories written by the product owner
• Checking whether enough component Testing has been done

Why is it important to avoid the pesticide paradox?

• Dynamic testing is less reliable in finding bugs
• Pesticides mixed with static testing can allow bugs to escape detection
• Tests should not be context dependent
• Running the same tests over and over will reduce the chance of finding new defects
