   Which of the following statements about traceability is FALSE?

   • ATraceability between test basis items and the test cases designed to cover them, makes it possible to determine which test basis items have been covered by the executed test cases.
   • BTraceability between test basis items and the test cases designed to cover them, enables experience-based test techniques to be applied.
   • CTraceability between test basis items and the test cases designed to cover them, enables identification of which test cases will be affected by changes to the test basis items.
   • DTraceability can be established and maintained through all the test documentation for a given test level, such as from test conditions through test cases to test scripts.

   As a tester, as part of a V-model project, you are currently executing some tests aimed at verifying if a mobile app asks the user to grant the proper access permissions during the installation process and after the installation process. The requirements specification states that in both cases the app shall ask the user to grant access permissions only to the camera and photos stored on the device. However, you observe that the app also asks the user to grant access permission to all contacts on the device. Consider the following items: [I]. Test environment. [II]. Expected result. [III]. Actual result. [IV]. Test level. [V]. Root cause. Based on only the given information, which of the items listed above, are you able to CORRECTLY specify in a defect report?

   • A[I] and [II].
   • B[II] and [III].
   • C[II], [III] and [V].
   • D[I], [IV] and [V].

   • AEach test level should have its own specific test objectives that should be consistent with the software development lifecycle phase or type of activities it addresses.
   • BTest analysis and design for any test levels should begin as soon as coding is complete, and all system components are available for testing.
   • CThe most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation.
   • DAll the tests should be automated and run as part of the continuous integration process with every software change.

   Which of the following statements about TDD, BDD and ATDD is TRUE?

   • ARefactoring is a practice that is an integral part of TDD and is applied both to tests and to code written to satisfy those tests.
   • BATDD is a black-box test design technique that is applicable exclusively at acceptance test level.
   • CBDD is a developer practice where business stakeholders are not usually involved as the tests are directly written at unit/component test level.
   • DATDD is the practice of running the automated acceptance tests as part of a continuous integration process.

   An anti-intrusion system is battery powered and is activated by pressing the only available button. To deactivate the system, the operator must enter a PIN code. The system will stay in alert mode within a configurable timeout and an alarm bell will ring if the system is not deactivated before the timeout expires. The following state transition diagram describes the behavior of the system:

   

   What is the minimum number of test cases needed to cover every unique sequence of exactly 4 states / 3 transitions starting and ending in the “Inactive” state? (note that “Inactive” is not a final state in the diagram).

A dedicated error message must be presented to inform the new user when an invalid address is entered. [d] To be valid, the first name and last name must contain only alphabetic characters and must be between 2 and 80 characters long. A dedicated error message must be presented to inform the new user when an invalid first name and/or the last name is entered. [e] After submitting the registration request, the new user must receive an e-mail containing the confirmation link to the e-mail address specified in the registration form. Based only on the given information, which of the following ATDD tests is MOST LIKELY to be written first?

   • AThe new user enters valid values in the fields of the registration form, except for the email address, where he/she enters an e-mail address provided by a free online mail service that allow to create disposable email addresses. Then he/she is informed by the website about this issue.
   • BThe new user enters valid values in the fields of the registration form, except for the first name, where he/she enters a first name with 10 characters that contains a number. Then he/she is informed by the website about this issue.
