Software Testing Quiz

What is the primary goal of program testing?

• To improve the software's performance

• To show that a program does what it is intended to do

• To reduce the development time

• To ensure the software is user-friendly

What does validation testing aim to demonstrate?

• That the software is compatible with other systems

• That the software meets its requirements

• That the software is easy to use

• That the software is free of defects

What is the difference between verification and validation?

• Verification is a static process, validation is a dynamic process

• Verification is about performance, validation is about functionality

• Verification is done by users, validation is done by developers

• Verification checks if the product is built correctly, validation checks if the right product is built

What is the focus of software inspections?

• Dynamic verification of product behavior

• Analysis of static system representation

• User experience testing

• Performance testing

What is unit testing primarily concerned with?

• Testing the entire system as a whole

• Testing individual program units in isolation

• Testing the integration of multiple components

• Testing user interactions with the system

What is the purpose of automated testing?

• To ensure all tests are run manually

• To reduce the need for manual testing

• To eliminate the need for test cases

• To increase the complexity of testing

What does partition testing involve?

• Identifying groups of inputs with common characteristics

• Testing all possible inputs

• Focusing only on boundary values

• Using random inputs for testing

What is the significance of equivalence partitioning?

• It helps in identifying invalid inputs

• It ensures all outputs are tested

• It focuses solely on performance testing

• It simplifies the testing process by grouping inputs

What is a key advantage of inspections over testing?

• They require more resources than testing

• They can identify dynamic behavior of the system

• They can be conducted without executing the system

• They are less time-consuming than testing

What is the focus of user testing?

• Testing the system for performance issues

• Testing the system for security vulnerabilities

• Testing the system in a controlled environment

• Testing the system in the user's own environment
