determination of coverage achieved and the assessment of impact of proposed changes. -
CORRECT ANSWERS Traceability Matrix
A tool that provides an environment for unit or component testing in which a component
can be tested in isolation or with suitable stubs and drivers. It also provides other support
for the developer, such as debugging capabilities. - CORRECT ANSWERS Unit Test
Framework
Code that cannot be reached and therefore is impossible to execute. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Unreachable Code
The capability of the software to be understood, learned, used and attractive to the user
when under specified conditions. - CORRECT ANSWERS Usability
Testing to determine the extent to which the software product is understood, easy to learn,
easy to operate and attractive to the users under specified conditions. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Usability Testing
A sequence of transactions in a dialogue between an actor and a component or system with
a tangible result, where an actor can be a user or anything that can exchange information
with the system. - CORRECT ANSWERS Use Case
A black box test design technique in which test cases are designed to execute scenarios of
use cases. - CORRECT ANSWERS Use Case Testing
A high-level user or business requirement commonly used in agile software development,
typically consisting of one or more sentences in the everyday or business language capturing
what functionality a user needs, any non-functional criteria, and also includes acceptance
criteria. - CORRECT ANSWERS User Story
A test whereby real-life users are involved to evaluate the usability of a component or
system. - CORRECT ANSWERS User Test

to establish a common understanding of its content. - CORRECT ANSWERS Walkthrough
Procedure to derive and/or select test cases based on an analysis of the internal structure of
a component or system. - CORRECT ANSWERS White-box Test Design Technique
Testing based on an analysis of the internal structure of the component or system. -
CORRECT ANSWERS White-box Testing
An arrangement of work elements and their relationship to each other and to the end
product. - CORRECT ANSWERS Work Breakdown Structure
The exit criteria that a component or system must satisfy in order to be accepted by user,
customer, or other authorized entity. - CORRECT ANSWERS Acceptance Criteria

Formal testing with respect to user needs, requirements, and business processes conducted
to determine whether or not a system satisfies the acceptance criteria and to enable the
user, customer or other authorized entity to determine whether or not to accept the system.
- CORRECT ANSWERS Acceptance Testing
The capability of the software product to provide the right or agreed results or effects with
the needed degree of precision. - CORRECT ANSWERS Accuracy
User or any other person or system that interacts with the system under test in a specific
way. - CORRECT ANSWERS Actor
The behavior produced/observed when a component or system is tested. - CORRECT
ANSWERS Actual Result
Testing carried out informally; no formal test preparation takes place, no recognized test
design technique is used, there are no expectations for results and arbitrariness guides the
test execution activity - CORRECT ANSWERS Ad Hoc Testing
A statement on the values that underpin agile software development. The values are:
-individuals and interactions over processes and tools
-working software over comprehensive documentation
-customer collaboration over contract negotiations
-responding to change over following a plan. - CORRECT ANSWERS Agile Manifesto
A group of software development methodologies based on iterative incremental
deveolpment, where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-
organizing cross-functional teams. - CORRECT ANSWERS Agile Software Development
Simulated or actual operational testing by potential users/customers or an independant test
team at the developers site but outside the development organization. Alpha testing is often
employed for off-the-shelf software as a form of internal acceptance testing. - CORRECT
ANSWERS Alpha Testing

Testing the code which enables communication between different processes, programs
and/or systems. API testing often involves negative testing, e.g., to validate the robustness of
error handling. - CORRECT ANSWERS API (application programming interface) Testing
Directed and focused attempt to evaluate the quality, especially reliability, of a test object by
attempting to force specific failures to occur. See negative testing. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Attack
A path by which the original input to a process(e.g. data) can be traced back through the
process, taking process output as a starting point. This facilitates defect analysis and allows a
process audit ti be carried out. - CORRECT ANSWERS Audit Trail
Testware used in automated testing, such as tool scripts. - CORRECT ANSWERS Automated
Testware
The degree to which a component or system is operational and accessible when required for
use. Often expressed as a percentage. - CORRECT ANSWERS Availability
Testing in which two or more variants of a component or system are executed with the same
inputs, the outputs compared, and analyzed in cases of discrepancies. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Back-to-Back Testing
A specification or software product that has been formally reviewed or agreed upon, that
thereafter serves as the basis for further development, and that can be changed only
through a formal change process. - CORRECT ANSWERS Baseline
A sequence of one or more consecutive executable statements containing no branches.
Note: a node in a control flow graph represents a basic block. - CORRECT ANSWERS Basic
Block
A set of test cases derived from the internal structure of a component or specification to
ensure that 100% of a specified coverage criterion will be achieved. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Basis Test Set
The response of a component or system to a set of input values and preconditions. -
