Interview questions for manual and
automation testing
1) What is a software? Different types of software?
In short computer software is a set of programs, procedures, functions, associated data and/or
its available documentation.
i) System Software
ii) Application Software
iii) Client server Application
iv) Web based application
v) Mobile application
2) Describe the differences between client server and web-based application?
For client server application the software must be installed in the client’s machine. Client server
application built on two tier architecture.
Web based application can be accessed through a browser. Web-based application is usually
built on multi-tier architecture
3) What is Software Quality Assurance (SQA)?
SQA involves the entire software development process.
Monitor and improve the development process.
Making sure that the requirement matched with the expectation.
Ensure if there is any bug, we fix it.
It is oriented PREVENTATION.
4) What is Software Testing?
Software testing is a process to evaluate the actual software product matches expected
requirement to makesure the software product is bug free.
I intentionally do negative and positive testing if there are any fixes required.
It is mostly focused on DETECTION.
Example: I can give you an example of negative testing and positive testing. Let’s say I want to
log in to the Facebook account and I put the wrong username and password and my
expectation was to get the failed result and it meets my expectation which is called negative
testing. And positive testing is exactly the opposite where I put the valid username and
password to get successful result and met my expectation which is called positive testing.
5) What is main goal of software testing?
The goal of Software Testing is to ensure the quality of the software that meets the
expectation of production needs which compare the User Requirements to developed product.
6) What is SDLC?
SDLC referred to as the Software Development Life Cycle.
It is the process of developing software through business needs/requirements.
7) What is SDLC used for?
SDLC useful in developing the products or customer which ensures the high quality and efficient.
8) Describe the phases of Software Development Life Cycle?
Phases of SDLC: The entire SDLC process divided into the following stages:
i) Phase 1: Planning and Requirement Analysis
ii) Phase 2: Defining Requirements and designing architecture
iii) Phase 3: Building or Developing the Product
,iv) Phase 4: Testing the Product
, v) Phase 5: Deployment and Maintenance
9) What are the different types of SDLC methodologies?
Waterfall methodology.
Agile methodology.
Incremental Model.
V-shaped model.
Kanban.
10) Describe the differences between Waterfall and Agile Methodology.
Waterfall:
i) Waterfall is sequential methodology where each phase of the SDLC is completed
chronologically.
ii) In waterfall the development cycle is longer.
iii) In Waterfall detailed documentation plays an important role.
iv) It’s hard changing the requirements once the project development starts.
Agile:
i) In Agile is an incremental methodology where all the phases of SDLC occurs at the same time.
ii) In agile the cycle is broken down into smaller sprints each lasting 2 to 3 weeks.
iii) In agile preferred discussion and continuous improvement.
iv) Agile allows changes in project development requirement.
11) How would you strategize a release in Agile?
I will have the daily scrum meeting to discuss on what each team member is working with.
A sprint planning meeting to discuss the backlog and decide which user story will be developed
in this sprint and tested.
Sprint review or demo meeting where QA team show to the product owner stories that were
developed, tested and ready for release.
We also have a retrospective meeting to discuss how to improve our agile development this is
the way to have a release in an agile project.
12) What is Scrum?
Scrum is a software development process framework for project management based on Agile
Methodology.
Scrum uses self-organizing cross-functional teams to incrementally develop products in short
cycles.
13) What are the roles in Scrum?
The roles in Scrum:
i) Product Owner
ii) Development Team
iii) Scrum Master
iv) End Users
14) What is a Sprint?
Sprints are core components of the agile methodology.
Sprint is the basic unit of development in Scrum which progress via iterations called Sprint.
It lasts from two to three weeks.
15) Describe Scrum Development Process? Or What are the meetings you attend in your Agile
methodology?
