What is walkthrough and inspection?

Correct Answer: Exploratory testing: means testing an application without a test plan and test script In exploring testing test explore the application on the basis on his knowledge The tester has no knowledge about the application previously He explores the application like an end user and try to use it While using the application his main motive is to find the bugs which are in the application Specification-driven testing: means to test the functionality of software according to the user requirements In this, tester inputs multiple data and monitors the outputs from, the test object In this testing tester evaluate the showstopper bugs which break the major functionality of the application This type of testing requires test plan and test

Correct Answer: Regression Testing: When changes in the code of the software are made to fix the previous bug Then testing needs to be perform to ensure that it will not generate a new bug in the application and it works as specified and that it has not negatively impacted any functionality that it offered previously Regression Testing is important because of following reason: - That the application works even after the alteration in the code were made - The original functionality continues to work as specified even after doing changes in the software application - The alteration to the software application has not introduced any new bugs

Correct Answer: Automated testing cannot replace manual testing because of following reason: - Automated testing cannot replace the analytical skills required to conduct testing It can only enhance or supplement manual testing, - Through manual testing, information can be gathered about the application, and real-time decisions can be made about how to enhance a test that would be too difficult to program into an automated script - We need a manual tester to analyze and maintain the automated scripts after they can run

Correct Answer: The differences in responsibilities are listed below: - QA is concern for Process Quality and Programmers are concern for Product Quality - QA ensure that the processes used for developing the product of high quality where as programmers used these processes so that end product is of good quality - Processes are decided by QA Programmers are supposed to follow the processes so that they can produce a good quality product - Any issue found during execution of process by the programmers is communicated to the QA so that they can improve the process

Correct Answer: The main attributes are discussed below: Maintainability: For each new release need to update the test automation suites Reliability: Accuracy and repeatability of the test automation Flexibility: Ease of working with all the different kinds of automation test ware Efficiency: Total cost related to the effort needed for the automation Portability: Ability of the automated test to run on different environments Robustness: Effectiveness of automation on an unstable or rapidly changing system Usability: Extent to which automation can be used by different types of user

Correct Answer: Use case is nothing but the functional specification document in which all the customer requirements are documented Test case is a document which tells wat to test, steps to test and expected and actual results

Correct Answer: Basically Load, Stress and Performance Testing are the same However, Load testing is the test to check the users? response time of number of users of any one scenario of the application whereas Performance Testing is the test to check the user response time for multiple scenario of the same application

Correct Answer: The QA testing process that was followed in my last company where I worked was like this: First of all the Business Requirement Document was prepared as per the client?s requirement (with the muck-up screen shots) Then on the basis of the requirement document, Test Strategy, Test Plans and Test Cases were written in sequential order Once the Build is made and deployed to the different testing environments where different types of testing were performed to check whether there are any defects

Correct Answer: Verification: Verification is a process to ensure that the software that is made, matches the original design In other words, it checks whether the software is made according to the criteria and specification described in the requirement document It is to check whether you built the product right as per design It is a low level checking (It is done in walk-through meetings generally) It checked whether it is made accordingly to the design Validation: Validation is a process to check whether the product design fits the client?s need It checks whether you built the right thing It checks whether it is designed properly

Correct Answer: Test scenarios are derived from requirement documents We follow each and every functionality (called business rules) mentioned in the requirement document One functionality can have multiple business rules For example, let us say in there is one requirement called ?Login? This ?Login? may have various scenarios For example, one scenario is, enter the right User ID and wrong password The system should display an error message Another scenario would be to enter wrong User ID and right Password The system should display an error message The third scenario could be to enter the right User Name and right Password The system should allow the user to get into the system This is how the test cases are derived from the requirement documents or from the Use Cases
