Question 1

A developer has spent three days looking at a system that crashes now and then. The problem was caused

by two coding faults:

i. A variable was being used but had not been defined;

ii.There was a ‘goto’ statement to an undefined label

Options :

A :

Static analysis tool

B : Code coverage tool

C :

Dynamic analysis tool

D :

Test execution tool

Answer: A

Question 2

Consider the following code fragment

If (a>b) and (b>c) then

b = (a+c)/2

endif

Assume that in the following options, each of the three numbers in parenthesis represent the inputs for a

test case, where the first number represents variable “a”, the second number represents variable “b”, and

the third number represents variable “c”.

Which of the following gives a set of test case inputs that achieves 100?cision coverage for this

fragment of code with the minimum number of test cases?

Options :

A : (5, 3, 2)

B : (5, 3, 2); (5, 4, 0)

C : (5, 4, 0); (4, 5, 0)

D : (4, 5, 0); (5, 4, 5)

Answer: C

Question 3

You have conducted static analysis on several new modules for an existing product. You are now executing test cases and are seeing inconsistent problems including crashes. Intermittent error messages are appearing. Despite all your best efforts, you are not able to find reproducible scenarios to force these errors. What problem in the code are you likely seeing?

Options :

A : Wild pointers

B : Poor error handling

C : Undefined variables

D : Instrumented code

Answer: A

Question 4

You are a Technical Test Analyst preparing load test scripts. You have been invited to a technical review of the system's operational profile document produced by the business. The meeting is next week, during your preparation you notice that volumetric data covering projected transaction volumes will be held in a separate document that will not be available before the meeting. What would be the BEST course of action?

Options :

A :

Request that the meeting be delayed until the volumetric document has been drafted and examined by the reviewers

B : To avoid delay to the project, attend the review as scheduled and raise the issue at the meeting

C : State that you are not a mandatory reviewer but request that both documents be sent to you once agreed

D :

Delay the review but limit schedule impact by presenting the volumetric document to the reviewers during the meeting

Answer: B

Question 5

You are working on a project to develop an application that allows users to collaborate via bespoke, online whiteboards. The first release, delivering core functionality, highlighted misunderstandings of the user stories between testers, developers and the product owner during sprint development Since that release, the developers have agreed to implement a TDD approach for future software development. Creation of the product backlog for the second release is underway and you have recommended to the project stakeholders that an atdd approach be adopted for the backlog's user stories. What would be a GOOD REASON for making this recommendation? SELECT ONE OPTION

Options :

A : The team wants to start using BDD and therefore atdd must also be used

B : The test strategy states that automation shall be used to minimize effort for execution of acceptance tests

C :

TDD can only work effectively when an ATDD approach is used for the user stories use of attd examples will help address the misunderstandings encountered in release 1
