ISTQB Question Bank 541 to 580

A type of integration testing in which software elements, hardware elements,or both are combined all at once into a component or an overall system, rather than in stages.

• System Testing
• Big-Bang Testing
• Integration Testing
• Unit Testing

You are the test manager and you are about the start the system testing. The developer team says that due to change in requirements they will be able to deliver the system to you for testing 5 working days after the due date. You can not change the resources( work hours, test tools, etc.) What steps you will take to be able to finish the testing in time.

• Tell to the development team to deliver the system in time so that testing activity will be finish in time.
• Extend the testing plan, so that you can accommodate the slip going to occur
• Rank the functionality as per risk and concentrate more on critical functionality testing
• Add more resources so that the slippage should be avoided

There is one application, which runs on a single terminal. There is another application that works on multiple terminals. What are the test techniques you will use on the second application that you would not do on the first application?

• Integrity, Response time
• Concurrency test, Scalability
• Update & Rollback, Response time
• Concurrency test, Integrity

Which technique can be used to achieve input and output coverage? It can be applied to human input, input via interfaces to a system, or interface parameters in integration testing.

• Error Guessing
• Boundary Value Analysis
• Decision Table testing
• Equivalence partitioning

Which of the following assertions about code coverage are correct?

• Statement coverage usually requires more test case suites
• 100 % statement coverage guarantees 100 % decision coverage
• 100 % decision coverage implies 100 % statement coverage
• Decision tables cannot be used to list statement coverage values

Which of the following statements is true about white-box testing?

• It includes functional testing
• It includes loop testing
