QUESTION 1

Demonstrates the difference in Error, Fault and Failure.


pre: param is an integer.
post: returns the product of the param multiplied by 2.
1. int double (int param) {
2. int result;
3. result = param * param;
4. return result;
5. }

Solution:
Error:
 Human mistake: The programmer mistakenly multiplied the parameter by itself instead of
multiplying it by 2.
 Location: Line 3: result = param * param;
Fault:
 Incorrect implementation: The code contains a defect that causes it to produce incorrect results.
 Location: Line 3: result = param * param;
Failure:
 Deviation from expected behavior: When the function is called with a non-zero input, it returns
an incorrect result, which is different from the specified postcondition.
 Impact: The function's intended purpose is not fulfilled.
Correct java code:
int double (int param) {
int result = param * 2;
return result;
}
Explanation:
 Error: The human error of multiplying by the parameter itself was identified.
 Fault: The incorrect implementation of the multiplication operation was corrected.
 Failure: The incorrect behavior of the function, which was caused by the fault, is now resolved.

QUESTION 2
 Consider Cu-online system Identify, document, and report defects found
during testing

1. Identify Defects
In university online system, some of the main areas that could be tested include:
Functional Areas:
 User Authentication: Login/logout, password reset, multi-factor authentication.
 Course Management: Enrollments, course content access, assignment uploads.
 Student Records: Access to grades, transcripts, attendance records.
 Communication Tools: Announcements, email notifications, discussion forums.
 Payment Gateway: Tuition fee payments, transaction history, receipt generation.
 Profile Management: Updating personal information, photo upload, contact details.

Common Types of Defects:


 Functionality Defects: System does not work as intended (e.g., incorrect grade
displayed).
 Usability Defects: User interface issues (e.g., unclear error messages, misaligned
buttons).
 Performance Defects: Slow response times or system crashes under high load.
 Security Defects: Vulnerabilities like SQL injection, weak password policies.
 Compatibility Defects: Issues on different devices or browsers.

2. Document Defects
Each defect should be documented with a clear and concise format to ensure it can be understood
and addressed by the development team. A typical defect report includes:
 Defect ID: Unique identifier for tracking.
 Title: A brief description of the defect.
 Description: Detailed explanation of the issue.
 Steps to Reproduce: Clear, step-by-step instructions to recreate the defect.
 Expected Result: What should have happened if the system worked correctly.
 Actual Result: What actually happened.
 Severity: Impact level (e.g., Critical, Major, Minor).
 Priority: Importance for fixing (e.g., High, Medium, Low).
 Environment: Information on browser, OS, version, etc.
 Attachments: Screenshots, videos, or logs as evidence.

3. Report Defects
