ATAPreview

Which of the following descriptions is an example of the use of defect taxonomies?

You are testing an ATM based on the following use case;

ATM start screen is showing -

The user inserts card -

The user types in PIN -
The user selects cash with receipt

The user selects 50 -
The user selects no further service

Expected results -

The ATM provides 50 to the user -
The ATM return the card and balance slip

The ATM clears the screen -
The ATM returns to start menu in your test log which of the following could be noted as part of additional attention points?

A temperature unit holds the temperature between 10 degrees Celcius and 10 degrees Celcius. If the temperature drops below 10 or rises above 10 then an alarm rings. Boundary Value Analysis tests are drawn up using the approach of two test cases per boundary. The temperatures to be tested are:

To enhance both the effectiveness and efficiency of the test design phase the purchase of a test design tool is being considered. Which one of the statements hereafter best characterizes a test design tool?

You are testing the processing of a critical traffic control system to which various regulations apply. The processing of the input variables is dependent of defined ranges within which the actual retrieved data values can lie.
Which of the following test techniques will you use to the processing functionality of the traffic control system?

Using the "Tax System" specification scenario as described above, using boundary value analysis, which would be the most interesting test set to explicitly test one single boundary value as defined in the "Tax System" specification?

How many invalid test cases can be identified from the "Route Calculation" state table provided?
You may assume all actions are different and independent.

Study the "Supercar" classification tree, which of the following statements is correct?

A company wants to develop a web site to implement an on-line sales channel. The company has decided to do some usability testing, but resources are limited.
The usability testing has therefore to be done as efficient as possible. Which THREE techniques would you recommend?

Which of the following criteria on test progress would enable the business to determine a likely go live date?
(i) Number of tests planned versus number of tests executed
(ii) Number of high priority defects outstanding
(iii) The test teams timesheets in order to show how much effort has been devoted to testing
(iv) Number of tests passed and number failed
(v) Number of defects found in each development area
(vi) The rate at which defects are being found

Tax system -
A tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than 20.000 and who is married, the tax needs to be re-calculated. If the person also has more than two and less than five children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.
How many input classes can be distinguished when applying equivalence partitioning to the "Tax System" specification?

A new banking system has 2 customers types, 2 account types and will operate in two different countries?
How many test cases will be needed using the pair wise testing technique and the appropriate 2-wise orthogonal array?

In an organization using keyword-driven automation, which of the following activities typically is the responsibility of the test analyst?

The use case will be used as a basis for the design of usability test scenarios. As a tester you are asked to review the ATM use case from the perspective of usability testing.
As a tester you are asked to review the ATM use case provided below. The use case will be used as a basis for functionality testing to be performed later.

Which one of the comments, described hereafter, would be the MOST important one you would make?

Ken, an entrepreneur in Leeds finds the quality of the tea locally available so low, that he decides to research superior teas around the world. He decides to market, sell and distribute these superior teas via the web. His market strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website with graphics that are fast to load, has high availability, superior usability and fast response times.
The website will offer the following:
-An innovative interactive catalogue of teas, which not only enables customers to buy the product, but also enables them to provide feedback by rating the teas
(which will influence his stock purchasing levels)
Provide the customer with the ability to use secure credit card transactions
Provide the customer to give general feedback
Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers that are experienced in web development. Ken, although he doesn't have technical skillset, is concerned with quality. He doesn't believe a lot of documentation is necessary and he wants the website to be completed quickly.
The test basis contains the following:
-Story boards that show the information flow and page links through the site
-HTML pages developed to date.
-A statement of non-functional requirements.
With the strategy taking shape, Ken asks your advice on the specific testing techniques that should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Kens overall objectives.
We now make the assumption that in the scenario described as above, exploratory testing was selected as being the main test technique. You have now been given the task of specifying, executing and recording the exploratory test sessions.
Select TWO of the options below to define what you will typically use for specifying, executing and recording the sessions?

Which of the following is a type of testing that someone in the role of a test analyst, working with the test manager, should typically consider and plan for?

A SUMI test was performed at an early stage within the system test. Hereafter you find the results of the SUMI test.

Based on these results, what would you recommend as the most appropriate approach for usability testing?

Which of the following is a typical work product that the Test Analyst would deliver as part of the test closure activities?

Which of the following tasks and responsibilities do NOT belong to that of a test analyst in the context of evaluating exit criteria and reporting?

You are starting to review some of the incident reports that have been submitted as a result of test execution.

Which THREE of the comments would be your main findings when you have reviewed the following incident report?

You are a test analyst in the banking domain. You have received the following requirement:
"The system shall allow cash advances of at least 200 Euros for all supported credit cards. The correct list of credit cards is American Express, Diners, VISA,
Mastercard and Eurocard.
Which one of the findings described below is true regarding this requirement?

You are applying pairwise testing and using orthogonal arrays. The following steps are all part of the process to be followed
.
i) Determine the number of choices for each variable ii) Map the test problem onto the orthogonal array iii) Construct the test cases iv) Identify the variables v)
Locate an appropriate orthogonal array
What is the correct order of the above mentioned process steps?

Consider the following description in a defect report "Nasty bug trashed contents of new file that I created by formatting some text in symbol font, wasting my time."
Which TWO of the following comments would you immediately make based on the defect description above?
