  1. What is the difference between verification and validation?

    Answer: Verification checks if built correctly; validation checks if correct product is built

    Verification: building it right. Validation: building the right thing.

  2. What is regression testing?

    Answer: Re-running tests to ensure changes have not broken existing functionality

    Regression testing re-executes previous tests after changes to verify nothing is broken.

  3. What is boundary value analysis?

    Answer: Testing at edges of input ranges where defects are most likely

    BVA focuses on testing at and near boundaries where defects commonly cluster.

  4. What is a test case?

    Answer: Documented conditions, inputs, and expected results for verifying functionality

    A test case specifies preconditions, inputs, steps, and expected results.

  5. What is code coverage analysis?

    Answer: Measuring what percentage of code is exercised by tests

    Code coverage measures the percentage of code executed during testing.

  6. What is exploratory testing?

    Answer: Simultaneous test design, execution, and learning

    Exploratory testing simultaneously designs and executes tests using creativity and domain knowledge.
