A software company decided to buy a commercial application for its accounting operations. As part of the evaluation process, the company decided to assemble a team to test a number of candidate applications. Which team would be the most suitable for this goal?
Explanation: A software company decided to buy a commercial application for its accounting operations. As part of the evaluation process, the company decided to assemble a team to test a number of candidate applications. The most suitable team for this goal would be a team with a mix of software testers and experts from the accounting department. This team would have the following advantages: Software testers have the skills and experience to design, execute, and evaluate test cases based on the requirements and criteria of the company. They can also use tools and techniques to support their testing activities and provide reliable and objective information about the quality and risk level of each candidate application. Experts from the accounting department have the knowledge and expertise to understand and validate the functionality and usability of each candidate application. They can also provide feedback and suggestions for improvement based on their needs and expectations as end users or customers. The other teams mentioned in the question are not as suitable for this goal as they are for other purposes or scenarios. For example: A team from an outsourcing company which specializes in testing accounting software: This team might have the skills and experience to test accounting software, but they might not have the knowledge and expertise to understand and validate the specific requirements and criteria of the company that wants to buy the application. They might also lack the communication and collaboration with the stakeholders of the company who are involved in the evaluation process. A team of users from the accounting department that will need to use the application on a daily basis: This team might have the knowledge and expertise to understand and validate the functionality and usability of each candidate application, but they might not have the skills and experience to design, execute, and evaluate test cases based on the requirements and criteria of the company. They might also lack the tools and techniques to support their testing activities and provide reliable and objective information about the quality and risk level of each candidate application. A team from the company’s testing team, due to their experience in testing software: This team might have the skills and experience to design, execute, and evaluate test cases based on the requirements and criteria of the company, but they might not have the knowledge and expertise to understand and validate the functionality and usability of each candidate application. They might also lack the feedback and suggestions for improvement based on the needs and expectations of the end users or customers.
Why is it important to select a test technique?
Explanation: The purpose of selecting a test technique is to increase the effectiveness of the test process by creating tests with higher chance of finding bugs. Test techniques do not define the number of regression cycles, nor are they the only way to test a software application. Test techniques may help reduce the number of tests, but that is not their primary goal. Reference: Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) Syllabus - ASTQB, Section 4.1.1, Page 29
System testing is:
Explanation: Concerned with the behavior of a whole system/product as defined by the scope of a development project. System testing is a level of testing that evaluates the system as a whole against its requirements and specifications. System testing is performed after integration testing and before acceptance testing. System testing covers functional and non-functional aspects of the system, such as usability, performance, reliability, security, etc. A detailed explanation of system testing can be found in A Self-Study Guide For The ISTQB Foundation Exam Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) 2018 Syllabus, pages 75-782.
Which of the following is NOT an example of a common test metric?
Explanation: Test metrics are quantitative measures that are used to monitor, control, and improve the test process and its outcomes. Test metrics can be collected at different levels of testing (test case, test suite, test project, etc.) and can be used for different purposes (planning, estimation, execution, evaluation, etc.). Some examples of common test metrics are: Percentage of work done in test environment creation: This metric indicates how much effort has been spent on setting up and maintaining the test environment, which includes hardware, software, network, data, tools, etc., that are required for conducting the test activities. Number of test cases run: This metric indicates how many test cases have been executed during a given period or phase of testing. Deviation from test milestone dates: This metric indicates how much delay or ahead of schedule the test activities are compared to the planned dates. Defect density: This metric indicates how many defects have been found per unit of size or functionality of the system under test. Average number of expected defects per requirement is not a common test metric because it is not easy to estimate or measure how many defects are likely to be found for each requirement. Moreover, this metric does not provide useful information for improving the test process or evaluating the test results. You can find more information about test metrics in A Study Guide to the ISTQB® Foundation Level 2018 Syllabus, Chapter 5, Section 5.41.
After a record of poor-quality software releases (incorrect menu selection options, new features that do not work, users allowed to change security levels without administrator rights), you have been asked to review the test capability in your company. You have limited time to do the review before the next project, which type of testing would be MOST appropriate to review first?
Explanation: Functional testing is the most appropriate type of testing to review first, after a record of poor-quality software releases. Functional testing is a type of testing that verifies the functionality and behavior of the software against its requirements and specifications. Functional testing can help detect defects such as incorrect menu selection options, new features that do not work, users allowed to change security levels without administrator rights, etc. Functional testing can also help improve the user satisfaction and confidence in the software. Therefore, functional testing should be reviewed first to ensure that it is done effectively and efficiently, and that it covers all the relevant aspects of the software functionality.
