Question #1 (1 Point)

What is quality?

a) Activities focused on providing confidence that quality requirements will be fulfilled


b) The degree to which a component or system satisfies the stated and implied needs
of its various stakeholders
c) The degree to which a component or system protects information and data so that
persons or other components or systems have the degree of access appropriate to
their types and levels of authorization
d) The total costs incurred on quality activities and issues and often split into prevention
costs, appraisal costs, internal failure costs and external failure costs

Select ONE option.

Question #2 (1 Point)
Which of the following is a typical test objective?
a) Preventing defects
b) Repairing defects
c) Comparing actual results to expected results
d) Analyzing the cause of failure

Select ONE option.

Question #3 (1 Point)
A phone ringing momentarily distracts a programmer, causing the programmer to
improperly program the logic that checks the upper boundary of an input variable.
Later, during system testing, a tester notices that this input field accepts invalid input
values. The improperly coded logic for the upper boundary check is:
a) The root cause
b) The failure
c) The error
d) The defect

Select ONE option.

Question #4 (1 Point)
A product owner says that your role as a tester on an Agile team is to catch all the bugs
before the end of each iteration. Which of the following is a testing principle that could
be used to respond to this (false) statement?
a) Defect clustering
b) Testing shows the presence of defects
c) Absence of error fallacy
d) Root cause analysis

Select ONE option.


Question #5 (1 Point)
Which of the following is an example of a task that can be carried out as part of the test
process?
a) Analyzing a defect
b) Designing test data
c) Assigning a version to a test item
d) Writing a user story

Select ONE option.

Question #6 (1 Point)
Consider the following testing activities:
1. Selecting regression tests
2. Evaluating completeness of test execution
3. Identifying which user stories have open defect reports
4. Evaluating whether the number of tests for each requirement is consistent with the
level of product risk

Consider the following ways traceability can help testing:


A. Improve understandability of test status reports to include status of test basis items
B. Make testing auditable
C. Provide information to assess process quality
D. Analyze the impact of changes

Which of the following best matches the testing activity with how traceability can assist
that activity?
a) 1D, 2B, 3C, 4A
b) 1B, 2D, 3A, 4C

is a testing contribution to success that BEST matches this situation?
a) Enabling required tests to be identified at an early stage
b) Ensuring processes are carried out properly
c) Reducing the risk of fundamental design defects
d) Reducing the risk of untestable functionality

bottlenecks in interfaces between components of a system. Which of the following
statements describes this test?
