1. You are working on project where re-use of software is an objective. You are involved in the project as a Technical Test Analyst and have been given the task to develop a checklist for code reviews.
Which question from the list below should you implement as part of the code review checklist?
A) Are all variables defined with meaningful, consistent and clear names?
B) Are all modules, data, and interfaces uniquely identified?
C) Is it possible during acceptance testing to verity whether the item has been satisfied?
D) Can each item be implemented with the techniques, tools, and resources available?
2. Which of the following defect types is NOT an example of a defect type typically found with API testing?
A) High architectural structural complexity
B) Data handling issues
C) Loss of transactions
D) Timing problems
3. Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding tools that support component testing and the build process?
A) Both provide run-time information on the state of the software code, e.g., unassigned pointers and the use and de-allocation of memory.
B) Both are used to reduce the costs of test environments by replacing real devices.
C) Both are used to examine source code before a program is executed. This is done by analysing a section of code against a set (or multiple sets) of coding rules.
D) Both provide an environment for unit testing in which a component can be tested in isolation with suitable stubs and drivers.
4. You are working on an internet banking project. Your company is offering this product to the financial market. For each new customer, some customization will typically be needed.
