Which one of the following statements IS NOT a valid objective of testing?
Finding all defects in a product and ensuring it is defect-free is not a valid objective of testing. Testing aims to find as many defects as possible, build confidence in the quality of the product, and evaluate work products. However, it is unrealistic to expect testing to find all defects, and declaring a product completely defect-free is impractical. Reference: ISTQB CTFL Syllabus V4.0, Section 1.1.1
Which of the following statements best describes the way in which decision coverage is measured?
Decision coverage, also known as branch coverage, is measured as the number of decision outcomes executed by the tests divided by the total number of decision outcomes in the test object. It ensures that every possible branch (true/false) decision in the code has been executed at least once. Reference: ISTQB CTFL Syllabus V4.0, Section 4.3.2
Which of the following best describes the relationship between a test progress report and a test summary report?
A test progress report is prepared during a test activity and provides updates on the current status of testing activities, including progress made, issues encountered, and test metrics. A test summary report, on the other hand, is prepared at the end of a test activity and provides a comprehensive overview of the testing carried out, including the final status, test results, defect summaries, and overall conclusions. Reference: ISTQB CTFL Syllabus V4.0, Section 5.3.2
Which of the following statements is NOT true about Configuration management and software testing?
While configuration management is crucial for maintaining consistent versions of software artifacts and supporting the build process, it does not directly increase the chances of finding defects in the software under test. Version-controlled test ware ensures that the correct versions of test cases and other test artifacts are used, but it is the quality and thoroughness of the tests that determine the effectiveness of defect detection. Reference: ISTQB CTFL Syllabus V4.0, Section 5.4
