a. Defect Report

b. Test Summary Report

c. Test Case

d. Test Plan
Answer: (d) Test Plan

Explanation: The Exit criteria of the functional testing should be followed because

the percentage (%) of exit criteria are decided by the meeting with both
development and test manager because their collaboration can achieve the
percentage. And When all the test cases are executing, most of the test cases must
be passed.

Answer: (b) Adhoc testing

Explanation: Whenever we have to randomly check the application without

following any sequence or procedure, we do one round of Adhoc testing. Since the
user doesn't know how to use the application, they may use it randomly and find
some issues. Adhoc testing is also known as negative testing because we test the
application against the client's requirements.

b. Code path analysis

 c. Basic path testing

d. None of the above

Answer: (a) Boundary value analysis

Explanation: The Black box testing is testing where we examine the software's

functionality without looking into its internal structure or coding. And the boundary
value analysis is used to test boundary values as the input values near the boundary
have higher chances of error. And it is one of the widely used case design
techniques for black-box testing.

Explanation: The user acceptance testing is done once the application is bug-

free because no customer accepts the application blindly before using it. Hence, they
perform one round of testing for their satisfaction. And Beta testing is one essential
part of Acceptance Testing, which is performed before releasing the software.

design techniques for black-box testing. It is a systematic approach where several
input combinations and their respective system behavior are captured in a tabular
form. The Decision table technique is suitable for the functions, which have a logical
relationship between two and more than two inputs.

a. The faults have been fixed

b. All the tests run

c. The time completed

d. The risk is resolved

Answer: (d) The risk is resolved.

Explanation: Once the application's functionality is stable, the risk is resolved,

when the time is less, we test the necessary features, and when the essential
feature itself is not working correctly, we can stop the testing.

phase?

a. Defects

b. Failures

c. Errors

d. Bugs

Answer: (d) Bugs

Explanation: The Bug is the informal name of defects, which means that software

developers made any mistake or error while developing the product. And the bug
had various names in different companies such as error, issues, problem, fault,
mistake, etc.

42) Which of the following is not a valid software testing technique?

a. Inspections

b. Data flow analysis

c. Error guessing
 d. Walkthrough

Answer: (c) Error guessing

Explanation: Error guessing is a technique in which there is no specific method for

identifying the error. It completely depends on the tester and type of experience in
the previous testing involvements because it does not follow any method and
guidelines. The error guessing technique deals with all possible errors that cannot be
identified as informal testing.
