   Exploratory testing is an experience-based test technique:

   • AWhere a developer and a tester work together on the same workstation: while the developer actively writes code, the tester explores the code to find defects.
   • BThat can be organized into sessions guided by test charters outlining test objectives that will guide the testers' exploration.
   • CWhere a team of testers explores all possible test techniques in order to determine the most suitable combination of these techniques to apply for a test project.
   • DThat aims at finding defects by designing tests that exercise all possible combinations of input values and preconditions.

   Which of the following is an advantage of the whole team approach?

   • AIt helps avoid the risk of tasks associated with a user story not moving through the Agile task board at an acceptable rate during an iteration.
   • BIt helps team members understand the current status of an iteration by visualizing the amount of work left to do compared to the time allotted for the iteration.
   • CIt helps the whole team be more effective in test case design by requiring all team members to master all types of test techniques.
   • DIt helps team members develop better relationships with each other and make their collaboration more effective for the benefit of the Project.

5. Question 45 · 138 in bank

   Which of the following statements about checklist-based testing is TRUE?

   • AChecklist-based testing is a technique for managing the review meeting that can be applied in those reviews where the use of checklists is mandatory, as is often the case in formal reviews.
   • BChecklist-based testing is a review technique that can be used in a formal review process where reviewers, during individual review, try to detect issues within the work product based on a checklist.
   • CIn checklist-based testing, using checklists at a high level of detail is more likely to produce test cases that are easier to reproduce than those using checklists at a low level of detail.
   • DChecklists used in checklist-based testing should be reviewed periodically for updates as, over time, test cases designed using the same checklist may become less effective at finding defects.

6. Question 46 · 138 in bank

   An application is subjected to a constant load for an extended period of time as part of a performance test. While running this test, the response time of the application steadily slows down, which results in a requirement not being met. This slowdown is caused by a memory leak where the application code does not properly release some of the dynamically allocated memory when it is no longer needed. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

   • AThe slowdown is a failure while the memory leak is a defect.
   • BThe slowdown is a defect while the memory leak is an error.
   • CThe slowdown is an error, the memory leak is a defect.
   • DThe slowdown is a defect; the memory leak is a failure.

7. Question 47 · 138 in bank

   In addition to thorough testing of the requirements specification, a development team aims to involve users as early as possible in the development process, using practices such as prototyping, to ensure that the software systems being developed will meet the users’ expectations. This approach is especially useful at mitigating the risks associated with one of the seven testing principles, which one?

   • ATests wear out.
   • BAbsence-of-errors fallacy.
   • CWorking software over comprehensive documentation.
   • DDefects cluster together.

8. Question 48 · 138 in bank

   A requirement specifies that a certain identifier (ID) must be between 5 and 10 characters long, must contain only alphanumeric characters, and its first character must be a letter. As a tester, you want to apply one-dimensional equivalence partitioning to test this ID. This means that you have to apply equivalence partitioning individually: to the length of the ID, the type of characters contained within the ID, and the type of the first character of the ID. What is the number of partitions to cover?

   • A7
   • B6
   • C5
   • D3

   • ATest execution.
   • BTest design.
   • CTest analysis.
   • DTest planning.

10. Question 50 · 138 in bank

    A requirement specifies that if the total amount of sales (TAS) made during the year by a corporate seller is 300,000€ or more, the bonus that must be paid to the seller is 100% of a certain amount agreed upon at the beginning of the year. The software contains a fault as it implements this requirement with the decision "IF (TAS = 300,000)" instead of "IF (TAS >= 300,000)". The application of the 3-value boundary value analysis to this problem consists of the following three test cases (TAS is an integer variable): TC1 = 299,999 - TC2=300,000 - TC=300,001 - Which of the following statements is TRUE?

    • ATC1 would highlight the fault.
    • BTC2 would highlight the fault.
    • CTC3 would highlight the fault.
    • DNone of the three test cases would highlight the fault.
