Question 1

What is Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

Accepted Answer

Writing tests before writing the production code they are meant to verify

Answer

In TDD, a failing test is written first, then the minimum code needed to pass that test is written, then the code is refactored.

Question 2

What is static testing?

Accepted Answer

Reviewing software artifacts such as code or documents without executing the program

Answer

Static testing examines code, design documents, or requirements through reviews and inspections without running the software.

Question 3

What does code coverage measure?

Accepted Answer

The percentage of source code that is executed during the test suite run

Answer

Code coverage is a metric that shows what percentage of lines, branches, or statements in the source code are exercised by automated tests.

Question 4

Which process tracks a software defect through states such as New, Assigned, Fixed, and Closed?

Accepted Answer

Defect life cycle management

Answer

The defect life cycle (or bug life cycle) tracks every defect from initial discovery through assignment, fixing, retesting, and final closure.

Question 5
