TS Test Planning & Design 2

Question 1

Which test design technique is BEST suited for testing combinations of multiple input parameters efficiently?

Accepted Answer

Pairwise (all-pairs) testing

Answer

Pairwise testing reduces the number of test cases needed by covering every combination of any two input parameters at least once.

Question 2

In a test plan, what does the 'suspension criteria' section define?

Accepted Answer

Conditions under which testing will be temporarily halted

Answer

Suspension criteria specify the conditions that cause testing to pause, such as a critical defect blocking further progress.

Question 3

Which artifact BEST captures the traceability between requirements and test cases?

Accepted Answer

Requirements traceability matrix (RTM)

Answer

An RTM maps each requirement to one or more test cases, ensuring full coverage and bidirectional traceability.

Question 4

When applying boundary value analysis, how many test values are typically generated for each boundary?

Accepted Answer

Three: below, at, and above the boundary

Answer

Standard BVA generates three values per boundary: one just below, one at, and one just above the boundary.

Question 5

A test plan's 'scope' section should include which of the following?

Accepted Answer

Features to be tested and features NOT to be tested

Answer

The scope section explicitly states what is in scope and what is out of scope to set clear boundaries for the test effort.
