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 Ken's overall objectives.
Which of the following represents the best choice of testing techniques in this scenario?
[K4] 3 credits

• A. Exploratory testing to maximize the value of the team' experience
• B. Decision testing to ensure that there is no redundant code
• C. Equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis using the storyboard ideas as a basis to maximize functional coverage.
• D. State transition testing to test the web site's availability statuses

While identifying scenario's for the use case "copy A4 - A4" for a new copier, the following scenario's were identified:
Basic scenario: single side to single side Deviations: single side to double side, copy of a set, copy using the automatic document feeder Failures: no paper in paper tray, paper jam, out of staples
How many test cases will be needed to achieve minimum coverage?
[K3] 2 credits

• A. 1
• B. 7
• C. 5
• D. 4

Analyzing the 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." There are arguments to be made for several test design techniques.
Which of the following test design techniques is LEAST likely to be used for identifying test cases for the requirement?
[K4] 3 credits

• A. Boundary value analysis
• B. Equivalence Partitioning
• C. Classification Tree Method
• D. State Transition Testing

You are working as a tester on a project to develop a point-of-sales system for grocery stores. Which of the following is a product risk that could be identified for such a system?
[K3] 2 credits

• A. Failure to accept allowed credit cards
• B. Delivery of an incomplete test release to the first cycle of system test
• C. An excessively high number of defect fixes fail during re-testing
• D. The arrival of a more reliable competing product on the market

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?
[K3] 2 credits

• A. i, ii, iv, v, iii
• B. iv, i, v, ii, iii
• C. iv, i, iii, v, ii
• D. iv, ii, v, iii, i
