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

Which of the following BEST explains the use of cause-effect graphing?
[K2] 1 credit

• A. Used with the purpose that with a limited set of test cases a reasonable level of coverage can be achieved.
• B. Used as a clear method to verify testing of all pertinent combinations of conditions and to verify that all possible combinations are handled by the software under test.
• C. Useful to gain a graphical overview of a program's logical structure and are typically used as the basis for creating decision tables.
• D. Used to test the ability of the software to enter into and exit from defined states via valid and invalid transitions.

Which of the following descriptions is an example of the use of defect taxonomies?
Number of correct answers: 1
[K2] 1 credit

• A. Following a defect management process through testing
• B. Grouping defects found in execution by functional areas
• C. Using a list of known defect types to penetrate the security of computer systems
• D. Running tests with the aim of finding as many defects as possible

Using the state diagram (based on the "Route Calculation"), how many test cases are needed to achieve 1-switch coverage?

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