Ideally, which environments should be targeted by interoperability testing?
You are testing software which is being ported from one platform to another. There are no documented requirements and there is no time budgeted for writing them.
Which type of test technique is most useful in this situation?
For an ATM banking project the following applies: "When the user first inserts a valid credit card, the system considers the user to be in an unauthenticated state. When requesting a cash advance, the user must be in an authenticated state. The user authenticates by entering the correct PIN code for the card they have used. During the user authentication, the system shall allow the user to enter their PIN code up to three times before failing the authentication and rejecting the card. On the first and second try, the system shall prompt the user to re-enter the PIN code "Suppose you are concerned that, depending on the number of invalid PIN codes entered, the system may behave incorrectly. Which of the following test design techniques is specifically targeted at finding such failures?
In the recent past, you have learned that test automation just using capture & playback tooling, possibly enhanced with some test programming, has limitations. For the next banking project, that will be run using Agile methods, you want to implement a keyword-driven test automation approach. You have already started to define some high-level test cases for the account transfer user story:
TC 1 transfer € 150 from Lars to Ann, verify Ann's balance to be € 150
TC 2 transfer € 300 from Tim to Ann, verify Ann's balance to be € 450
In the context of implementing the keyword-driven test automation approach, which of the following activities should now be conducted by the Test Analyst?
You have been assigned to test an application that allows users to conduct banking online. You have been asked to verify the various installation environments for the product. According to the specification the product supports four browsers (Edge, Chrome, FireFox and Safari), three operating systems (Windows, Mac, Unix), and four languages (English, Spanish, French, German). As you are reviewing the specifications you realize that the actual operating system names and versions were not included, only the major category. From this, you conclude that if you pick one from each of these sets (for example, select Windows 10 for the Windows OS), that testing should be sufficient.
You have researched the product and determined that there should be no interaction between these three characteristics that would affect the operation of the system. However, you do want to exercise representative set of these options while conducting the other functional testing for the product.
If you decide to test pairs of combinations, how many combinations will you need to test?
Although usability is an important aspect for a new planning system, due to availability constraints, the usability evaluation shall be performed without Which of the following is a usability technique that can be applied in this situation?
A Test Analyst is investigating what should be tested for interoperability between two systems. In addition to looking at the information exchange between the systems, what else should be
identified for testing?
You have been assigned to test an application that allows users to conduct banking online. You have been asked to verify the various installation environments for the product. According to the specification the product supports four browsers (Edge, Chrome, FireFox, and Safari), three operating systems (Windows, Mac, Unix), and four languages (English, Spanish, French, German).

From this, you conclude that if you pick one from each of these sets (for example, select Windows 10 for the Windows OS), that testing should be sufficient.
You have determined that some of these combinations are not interesting and should be excluded from the test sets. For example, you are not interested in testing Safari with Unix in German.
Which of the combinatorial testing techniques would be the best choice when you want to exclude certain combinations?
You have just attended a cross-functional meeting during which a list of risk items was reviewed. After much discussion, each item was assigned a likelihood and impact rating by the group. Although there was some disagreement, the outcome was generally accepted by everyone who participated. You will now be working on planning the testing to address the identified risks in priority order. When you execute the tests, you will be conducting what type of activity?
A new web site must operate correctly with different browsers (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari), using different plug-ins (Realplayer, Mediaplayer), will be receiving pages from different servers (IIS, Apache and WebLogic) and will be running on various operating systems
(Windows, Android, iOS and Linux).
Which of the following test techniques should you use to define the required test cases for testing this new web site in its various environments?
You are testing an ATM based on the following use
ATM start screen is showing
1. The user inserts card
2. The user types in PIN
3 The user selects cash with receipt'
4. The user selects €50
5. The user selects no further service' Expected results
- The ATM provides €50 to the user
- The ATM returns the card and balance slip
- The ATM clears the screen
- The ATM returns to start menu
You are asked to review this use case.
You are asked to review this use case.
What is the most important information that is missing from this use case?
The Acme Elevator company uses state-transition diagrams to document the behavior of their elevator doors.
The following text is taken from one of their requirements documents. Convert it into the equivalent state-transition diagram:
When the doors are open, the close command starts the doors closing.
When the doors are closing, the closed sensor indicates that the doors are fully closed.
When the doors are closed, the open command starts the doors opening.
When the doors are opening, the open sensor indicates that the doors are fully open.
If the doors are closing, the open command will start the doors opening.
If the doors are opening, the close command will start the doors closing.
Which state transition diagram most closely represents Acme's elevator door rules?
What is the MOST important reason why test conditions should be understandable by business stakeholders?
Which of the following descriptions is an example of the use of defect taxonomies?
Based on the classification tree shown below, using the pairwise testing technique how many test cases are required to test all pairs?
While experience-based testing can be very effective, it does have some drawbacks. What is a drawback of experience-based testing?
You are working on an Agile project to develop an ATM application and have been given the following story to review:
User Story #105, "Query balance and withdraw", Priority = 2, Version 1.0
Note: This story can only be implemented after the implementation of the following stories:
#101, "Login"
#102, "Verify valid account"
The user must be able to query the balance of his account and withdraw an amount of money not to exceed $200 or his balance, whichever is less. The query results must return within three seconds.
The user must receive their cash and receipt within five seconds of completing the request.
Acceptance Criteria: The user queries his account and receives a correct response within three seconds. The user requests a valid withdrawal and receives his money and receipt within five seconds.
Which of the following is a problem that should be noted during a review of this story?
You have been given a test charter to conduct exploratory testing for accepting credit and debit cards for an e-commerce system. You started with the credit cards and you have found that, valid or
invalid, they are never accepted. You have logged this as a defect. What should you do now?
You have been assigned to design test cases to be used by an experienced team to test software that controls the braking mechanism for commuter trains. Before the software can be released, the test evidence will be reviewed by an external safety team to ensure that test coverage is sufficient and that risk mitigation has achieved the appropriate level.
What level of test cases should be written for this application?
As a Test Analyst you are involved in the early stages of an acceptance test for a Product Data Management system. You are asked to write test designs and test cases based on use cases. An early version of the system is already available. It is expected that many things will change (including the user interface) during implementation of the new version.
The tests will be conducted by end-users with much domain knowledge who have also been involved in the project defining the user requirements (in the format of use cases) and reviewing other documentation.
What Is the BEST option regarding the level of detail and documentation required for test cases in the project?
Consider the following scenario for a metro fare system:
If you take the metro before 9:30 am or in the afternoon between 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm, you must pay full fare A saver ticket is available for metro rides between 9:30 am and 5:00 pm [both inclusive], and after 7:00 pm.
Which off the following test sets will provide the best equivalence partitioning coverage?
