An independent tester may be more focused on showing how the software works than the person who wrote the software. An independent tester may be more effective and efficient because they are less familiar with the software than the person who wrote it. An independent tester may be more effective at finding defects missed by the person who wrote the software.
The process of designing test cases consists of the following activities:

these activities? iii, i, iv, ii. iii, iv, i, ii. iii, ii, i, iv. ii, iii, i, iv.
Which of the following is a characteristic of good testing in any life cycle model? All document reviews involve the development team. Some, but not all, development activities have corresponding test activities. Each test level has test objectives specific to that level. Analysis and design of tests begins as soon as development is complete.
Which of the following are disadvantages of capturing tests by recording the actions of a manual tester?
i The script may be unstable when unexpected events occur.
ii Data for a number of similar tests is automatically stored separately from the script.
iii Expected results must be added to the captured script.
iv The captured script documents the exact inputs entered by the tester.
v When replaying a captured test, the tester may need to debug the script if it doesn’t play correctly. i, iii, iv, v. ii, iv and v. i, ii and iv. i and v.
Which of the following is the best source of Expected Outcomes for User Acceptance Test scripts? Actual results Program specification User requirements System specification.

Which of the following should NOT normally be an objective for a test? To find faults in the software. To assess whether the software is ready for release. To demonstrate that the software doesn’t work. To prove that the software is correct.
Which of the following is NOT true of test coverage criteria? Test coverage criteria can be measured in terms of items exercised by a test suite. A measure of test coverage criteria is the percentage of user requirements covered. A measure of test coverage criteria is the percentage of faults found. Test coverage criteria are often used when specifying test completion criteria.
Test cases are designed during: Test recording. Test planning. Test configuration. Test specification.
A configuration management system would NOT normally provide: Linkage of customer requirements to version numbers. Facilities to compare test results with expected results. The precise differences in versions of software component source code. Restricted access to the source code library.
In prioritising what to test, the most important objective is to: Find as many faults as possible. Test high risk areas. Obtain good test coverage. Test whatever is easiest to test.
Which one of the following statements, about capture-replay tools, is NOT correct? They are used to support multi-user testing. They are used to capture and animate user requirements. They are the most frequently purchased types of CAST tool. They capture aspects of user behaviour.
Which of the following statements about reviews is true? Reviews cannot be performed on user requirements specifications. Reviews are the least effective way of testing code. Reviews are unlikely to find faults in test plans. Reviews should be performed on specifications, code, and test plans.
Static analysis is best described as: The analysis of batch programs. The reviewing of test plans. The analysis of program code. The use of black box testing.
Which of the following is likely to benefit most from the use of test tools providing test capture and replay facilities? Regression testing Integration testing System testing User acceptance testing.
Which of the following is not described in a unit test standard? Syntax testing Equivalence partitioning Stress testing Modified condition/decision coverage.
Which one of the following describes the major benefit of verification early in the life cycle? It allows the identification of changes in user requirements. It facilitates timely set up of the test environment. It reduces defect multiplication. It allows testers to become involved early in the project.
Recovery testing is a system test that forces the software to fail and verifies that data recovery is properly performed. The following should be checked for correctness
