Q&A3 Flashcards
Severity of the impact on the system and/or the product stakeholders is usually determined by whom?
Technical behavior of the system
Priority to fix then problem is usually determined by whom?
Business impact of the failure
What technique that the subsystem or component in which the defect lies?
Defect cluster analysis
Distributed model
Alignments in methodologies
Purpose of process improvements
?
Structure of unorthodox(which is not following the norms, not normal, not practiced)
?
Demotivates a tester
- working late, successful project
- testing cut short, production defects results
Documentation standards is determined by whom?
Test Mgrs shld be aware of standards, policy and whether or not useful for them to use.
Test Managers should determine the usefulness of the diff standards for which testing occurs.
Requirement based model?
?
Which Tool lifecycle - porting of perf tool to new software
Acquisition
Support and Maintenance
Evolution
Retirement
Model failure modes of product?
?
Model failure modes of product
?
Test Policy?
Tbd
- methodical
- standard-compliant
- model
S/w characteristic of open source application tool
- concurrency threshold
- time limits?
- memory leaks
- coding standard issue
Who can have the best skills to test the new software
Tbd
- who worked as customer support and maintenance of
previous software released?
- former test manager?
Who decides which test tool to use?
Tbd
- test manager
- pm
- stakeholder
- developer
Current test progress 100% auto smoke test, 50% regression, 25% functional test. Goal is to automate all at the end of the release. What should be done?
?
Requirement: wiper will increase speed with slow/medium/fast intermittent, slow/med/fast constant
Test Condition: when moisture is increased to move the wiper speed from slow to fast
Test cases:
1.
2.
3.
- test requirement met the test case 100%
- test condition met the test case 100%
- per TCs,test condition not met
- per TCs,requirements not met
Tbd
Technique to use to reduce the number of defects
Tbd
- cost of quality analysis
- defect triage
For distributed testing, the division of the test work across multiple locations MUST BE?
explicit and intelligently decided
A REVIEW can eliminate what? -
an issue at the requirements level before the problem is implemented into the code
Which technique can help to enforce coding standards and check for problems that might be too laborious for the team to find by examination of the work product?
STATIC ANALYSIS
Test Metrics that shows percent how much has been tested: passed/failed/executed?
Project Metrics
Test Metrics: defect detected by testing?
Process Metrics
Test Metrics: capability of individual/group, implementation of test cases by schedule
People Metrics
Tedt Merrics: defect density
Product Metrics
Requirements-based testing may utilize what techniques?
- Ambiguity reviews
- Test condition analysis
- Cause-effect graphing
It can reduce an extremely large testing problem to a manageable number of test cases
Provide 100% functional coverage of the test basis
Identifies gaps in the test basis during test case design which can make identify defects-clearly in the sdlc when test design is started against the draft reqts
Cause-effect graphing
Model-based approach
Operational profiles
Mix of use cases, users(personas), inputs, outputs
Depict the real world use of the system
Functionality Usability Interoperability Reliability Security Performance
Methodical approach
- Checklists:
— what to test
—how much
—in what order
- Bug clusters focus of testing
- Tend to miss major areas that are important but not suffering from a large number of bugs
- Dynamic testing
Reactive approach
Test team:
- selects tests,
- allocates test effort, and
- initially prioritizes tests during requirements phase with oeriodic adjustments
Sequential V-model
Breakdown in test process occurs during which sdlc process?
Design and Implementation
Allocation and Prioritization is determined when?
Test Planning
Tests are run and defects found, testers can examine the remaining residual risk level
Risk-based testing
Test Manager can measure the degree to which testing is complete during which process?
Results Reporting and Exit Criteria Evaluation
Test Manager should evaluate Metrics and success criteria which are pertinent to the needs and expectations of the testing stakeholders including the customers and users needs and expectations in terms of quality
Test closure
Test Policy
Test objectives
Test Strategy
Test methodology
Master Test Plan or Project Test Plan
Implementation of test strategy
Level Test Plan
Particular activities to be carried out within each test level
Analytical strategies
Risk based testing
Test team analyzes the test basis to identify test conditions to cover
Model based strategies
Operational profiling
Methodical strategies
Used predetermined test set if test conditions
ISO 25000
Process or standard-compliant strategies
Scrum Agile Mgmt technique
- each iteration testers analyze user stories that describes features,
- estimate test effort for each feature as part of the planning process
- identify test conditions for each usr story
- execute tests cover conditions
- report the status of each user story(untested, failing passing) during test execution
Reactive strategies
Defect-based attacks
- team waits to design and implement tests until s/w is rcvd
- EXPLORATORY TESTING
Consultative strategies
User-directed testing
- inputs from stakeholders to determine test conditions to cover
- pairwise testing (high priority option)
- equivalence partitioning (lower priority options)
Regression-averse strategies
GUI based test automation tool
Regression automation
Overall governance of testing effort
Master Test Plan
Less formal projects
Test plan
-with all informational elements
