TS Test Design & Development 2

Question 1

Which test design technique derives test cases by identifying the minimum and maximum values plus values just inside and outside the boundaries?

Accepted Answer

Boundary value analysis

Answer

Boundary value analysis targets the edges of equivalence partitions, testing minimum, maximum, and values immediately adjacent to those limits.

Question 2

A test designer wants to ensure every pair of input parameters is tested at least once. Which technique is most appropriate?

Accepted Answer

Pairwise testing

Answer

Pairwise testing (all-pairs) ensures every combination of two parameter values appears in at least one test case, balancing coverage and efficiency.

Accepted Answer

An event or action that causes the system to move from one state to another

Answer

A transition represents the movement between states triggered by an event, often with an associated guard condition and action.

Question 4

Which coverage criterion requires that every statement in the code is executed at least once?

Accepted Answer

Statement coverage

Answer

Statement coverage (also called line coverage) verifies that each executable statement has been exercised by at least one test case.

Question 5

A decision table has 4 binary conditions. How many unique condition combinations are possible?

Accepted Answer

16
