asked your IT director to develop a vision for the function. He tells
you that the IT-function already has a mission, and his vision is to
accomplish that mission. How do you explain to your director the

<br />
<strong>Q 2. You are the project leader for the team and the team
members are fresh from colleges. During the reviews and testing they are
finding a lot defects but they are not reporting all of them for the
fear that would reflect in there performance appraisals. How do you
handle this type of situations and improve the quality?</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Q3. You as a QC person, what type of test end report will you

<strong>Q4. You are the new IS Manager of an investment company. Your
team needs to develop an online trading system within 2 months with no

agree with this? Explain.</strong><br />
<strong>Q6. You are passing by the cubicle of Broadcast project manager, Mr. Paul and you overhead him talking to him on the phone.</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Mr. Paul was talking to his client “OK, Initially we planned
about 25% efforts to be spent in System Testing but As you know we
slipped the Design by 5% so I promise you I would adjust this efforts in
System Test by reducing the System Test efforts- instead of 25% – we
will now plan for 20%.By doing so I am still hopeful to meet delivery
deadlines.</strong><br />
<strong>You guessed that Mr. Paul is negotiating the System Test efforts. What would be your action points to Convince Mr. Paul.</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Q7. Paul had just finished meeting System Testing people. He
seems to be upset. He held a meeting to find out the status of Testing
and basically wanted to know how many Faults were Fixed in the Previous
build 3.0. The Test Team Leader was away, so he could get hold of 4
testers.</strong><br />
<strong>- Two Testers said. We have tested the build 3.0 and there are no showstopper Faults.</strong><br />
<strong>- The Other Tester said – we Tested 3.0 Thoroughly and we could find some problems.</strong><br />
<strong>Apparently, Paul got confused and wanted to know what really
is happening. He asked the Test Team leader who joined late in the
meeting. He asked him the same question. The Test Team leader said: we
have tested the Build 3.0 and there were many show stopper issues.</strong><br />
<strong>Paul could not make anything and just came out of the
meeting. Paul feels that there should be some system to get the correct
status of Testing.</strong><br />

<li>Aspects of computer software that should be observed during the
demonstration of COTS software? Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) is a
term for software or hardware products that are ready-made and available
for sale, lease, or license to the general public. They are often used
as alternatives to in-house developments or one-off government-funded
developments. The use of COTS is being mandated across many government
and business programs, as they may offer significant savings in
procurement and maintenance. However, since COTS software specifications
are written by external sources, government agencies are sometimes
leery of these products because they fear that future changes to the
product will not be in their control.</li>

<strong>ISEB Foundation Certificate in Software Testing Practice Exam -3</strong></h3>
<strong></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Q1. Software testing activities should start</strong><br />a. as soon as the code is written<br />b. during the design stage<br />c. when the requirements have been formally documented<br />d. as soon as possible in the development life cycle<br /><br /><strong>Q2. Faults found by users are due to:</strong><br />a. Poor quality software<br />b. Poor software and poor testing<br />c. bad luck<br />d. insufficient time for testing<br /><br /><strong>Q3. What is the main reason for testing software before releasing it?</strong><br />a. to show that system will work after release<br />b. to decide when the software is of sufficient quality to release<br />c. to find as many bugs as possible before release<br />d. to give information for a risk based decision about release<br /><br /><strong>4. which of the following statements is not true</strong><br />a. performance testing can be done during unit testing as well as during the testing of whole system<br />b. The acceptance test does not necessarily include a regression test<br />c. Verification activities should not involve testers (reviews, inspections etc)<br />d. Test environments should be as similar to production environments as possible<br /><br /><strong>Q5. When reporting faults found to developers, testers should be:</strong><br />a. as polite, constructive and helpful as possible<br />b. firm about insisting that a bug is not a “feature” if it should be fixed<br />c. diplomatic, sensitive to the way they may react to criticism<br />d. All of the above<br /><br /><strong>Q6. In which order should tests be run?</strong><br />a. the most important tests first<br />b. the most difficult tests first(to allow maximum time for fixing)<br />c. the easiest tests first(to give initial confidence)<br />d. the order they are thought of<br /><br /><strong>Q7. The later in the development life cycle a fault is discovered, the more expensive it is to fix. why?</strong>a. the documentation is poor, so it takes longer to find out what the software is doing.<br />b. wages are rising<br />c. the fault has been built into more documentation,code,tests, etc<br />d. none of the above<br /><br /><strong>Q8. Which is not true-The black box tester</strong><br />a. should be able to understand a functional specification or requirements document<br />b. should be able to understand the source code.<br />c. is highly motivated to find faults<br />d. is creative to find the system’s weaknesses<br /><br /><strong>Q9. A test design technique is</strong><br />a. a process for selecting test cases<br />b. a process for determining expected outputs<br />c. a way to measure the quality of software<br />d. a way to measure in a test plan what has to be done<br /><br /><strong>Q10. Testware (test cases, test dataset)</strong><br />a. needs configuration management just like requirements, design and code<br />b. should be newly constructed for each new version of the software<br />c. is needed only until the software is released into production or use<br />d. does not need to be documented and commented, as it does not form part of the released software system<br /><br /><strong>Q11. An incident logging system </strong><br />a. only records defects<br />b. is of limited value<br />c. is a valuable source of project information during testing if it contains all incidents<br />d. should be used only by the test team.<br /><br /><strong>Q12.
Increasing the quality of the software, by better development methods,
will affect the time needed for testing (the test phases) by:</strong><br />a. reducing test time<br />b. no change<br />c. increasing test time<br />d. can’t say<br /><br /><strong>Q13. Coverage measurement</strong><br />a. is nothing to do with testing<br />b. is a partial measure of test thoroughness<br />c. branch coverage should be mandatory for all software<br />d. can only be applied at unit or module testing, not at system testing<br /><br /><strong>Q14. When should you stop testing?</strong><br />a. when time for testing has run out.<br />b. when all planned tests have been run<br />c. when the test completion criteria have been met<br />d. when no faults have been found by the tests run<br /><br /><strong>Q15. Which of the following is true?</strong><br />a. Component testing should be black box, system testing should be white box.<br />b. if u find a lot of bugs in testing, you should not be very confident about the quality of software<br />c. the fewer bugs you find,the better your testing was<br />d. the more tests you run, the more bugs you will find.<br /><br /><strong>Q 16.

</span></span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;">You
are working as a test analyst at a bank. At the bank, test analysts work
closely with users during user acceptance test. The bank has bought two
financial applications as commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software from large
software vendors. Previous history with these vendors has shown that they
deliver quality applications that work on their own, but this is the first time
the bank will attempt to integrate applications from these two vendors. Which
of the following test levels would you expect to be involved in? [Note: There
might be more than one right answer.]</span></div>

Tested," and you would expect to find each of the features listed in this
section of the test plan to be listed in one or more of the sections called
"Features to Be Tested" in all of the test design specifications.
