Question List

Question1: You are testing software that will be used on mobile devices by senior citizens to help them sign up for activities in a retirement home. The interface is modern with moving graphics and few words. There is no help included with the application. Given this information, what type of testing is needed to ensure the application is suitable for use?

Question2: Consider the following requirement:
The system shall allow cash advances of at least 200 Euros for all supported credit cards The following credit cards are supported- American Express, Diners, VISA, Mastercard and Eurocard.
The requirement has been identified as business critical.
The following test conditions have been derived:
1. The system shall allow cash advances of at least 200 Euros
2. It shall support American Express, Diners, VISA, Mastercard and Eurocard.
Assume you are following a risk-based testing strategy, where likelihood and impact are both assessed on a five-point scale ranging from very low to very high The requirement R1 was identified as a risk item during the quality risk analysis process. In total 20 risk items were identified during this process Assume that technical project stakeholders have assessed the likelihood of the requirement R1 risk item at a medium level Given only the information above, which of the following statements is true?

Question3: Ken finds the quality of the tea locally available to be so low, that he decides to research superior teas around the world. He decides to market, sell and distribute these superior teas via the web. His marketing strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website that has fast loading graphics, high availability, superior usability and fast response times. The website will offer the following:
- An innovative interactive catalogue of teas, which not only enables customers to buy the product, but also enables them to provide feedback by rating the teas (which will influence his stock purchasing levels).
- Provide the customer with the ability to use secure credit card transactions.
- Provide the customer with the ability to give general feedback.
Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers who are experienced in web development Ken, although he doesn't have a technical skillset, is concerned with quality. He doesn't believe a lot of documentation is necessary and he wants the website to be completed quickly. The test basis contains the following:
- Story boards that show the information flow and page links through the site.
- HTML pages developed to date
- A set of non-functional requirements.
With the strategy taking shape, it is decided that exploratory testing should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Ken's overall objectives. You have now been given the task of identifying the exploratory tests, which will be executed as test sessions.
Which of the options below state what you will typically use for identifying the exploratory tests?

Question4: Based on the tax system specification as described below, using boundary value analysis, which would be the best test set to explicitly test on single boundary value fully?
Tax system
A tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than € 20 000 and who is married, the tax needs to be recalculated.
If a person has at least three and less than six children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.

Question5: In the initial release of an insurance risk assignment application, a variety of test techniques were employed, especially equivalence partitioning.
After a thorough root cause analysis of this release, it was determined that the developers tended to incorrectly use ">" and "<" rather than the ">=" and " <= " in the code at several decision points.
This caused several borderline cases to be handled incorrectly.
Based on this analysis, how would you modify your test strategy for the next version's release?
