ISTQB Question Dumps For Software Testing -  Part 18


Question:

How would you test these requirements:
a) The system must be user-friendly
b) The system must be easy to install
c) The following response times are to be achieved with the new system:
• Initial loading of the web application must be achieved within 3 seconds
• Updating of the information on the web page must be no more than 5 seconds


Answer:

a) The system must be user-friendly
 
 Questions to ask:
  • Friendly to whom?
  • Who are the users?
Test approaches:
  • Talk to the users
  • Document assumptions
  • Compile test scenarios for people who have not seen the system
  • Document tests and review these with the users
 
 
b) The system must be easy to install
 
Questions to ask:
  •  For whom?
  •  Is there any installation documentation to follow?
 
Test approaches:
  • Follow installation documentation (if there is any)
  • Allow tests to be run by an inexperienced user to see how easy it is
  •  Document tests and review these with the users
 
c) The following response times are to be achieved with the new system:
 
• Initial loading of the web application must be achieved within 3 seconds
• Updating of the information on the web page must be no more than 5 seconds
 
Once more we need to ask some probing questions surrounding this requirement:
 
  • What happens if we don’t meet the times?
  • Would a range of values be better?
  • What is happening on the network?
  • Are these average times or are they ‘peak’ times?
  • What is involved in updating – how much information?

In attempting to test this requirement we would document the exact criteria for the test and the simplest way would be to time a number of tests and supply the average.
With all these 3 requirements, what we are looking for is to see whether the

With all these 3 requirements, what we are looking for is to see whether the potential tester will challenge the requirements of whether they would just accept them and try to test to the best of their ability

What is LCSAJ Testing?

-
Image
LCSAJ testing requires a model of the source code which identifies control flow jumps (where control flow does not pass to a sequential statement). An LCSAJ (Linear Code Sequence and Jump) is defined by a triple, conventionally identified by line numbers in a source code listing: the start of the linear code sequence, the end of the linear code sequence, and the target line to which control flow is transferred. Test cases shall be designed to exercise LCSAJs. For each test case, the following shall be specified: - the input(s) to the component; - identification of the LCSAJ(s) to be executed by the test case; - the expected outcome of the test case.

What is Syntax Testing?

Syntax Testing uses a model of the formally-defined syntax of the inputs to a component. The syntax is represented as a number of rules each of which defines the possible means of production of a symbol in terms of sequences of, iterations of, or selections between other symbols. Test cases with valid and invalid syntax are designed from the formally defined syntax of the inputs to the component. Test cases with valid syntax shall be designed to execute options which are derived from rules which shall include those that follow, although additional rules may also be applied where appropriate: -   whenever a selection is used, an option is derived for each alternative by replacing the selection with that alternative; -   whenever an iteration is used, at least two options are derived, one with the minimum number of iterated symbols and the other with more than the minimum number of repetitions.   A test case may exercise any number of options.   For each test case the

1. Which of the following statements contains the correct use of the terminology? a) a fault by a person may introduce an error into the software that may cause a failure in operation b) a failure by a person may introduce a fault into the software that may cause an error in operation c) an error made by a person may introduce a fault into the software that may cause a failure in operation d) an error made by a person may introduce a failure into the software that may cause a fault in operation e) a failure by a person may cause an error in the software that may cause a fault in operation 2.   A reliable system will be one that: a) is unlikely to be completed on schedule b) is unlikely to cause a failure c) is likely to be fault-free d) is likely to be liked by the users e) includes a minimum number of components 3.   Which of the following statements about ‘Integration Testing in the Small’ is false? a) It can combine all the components together in one go
