Test Database Upgrade
Suppose a DB has just been upgraded from Oracle 10g to 11. What testing factors will you look at?
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
kurtz182- Member Since Nov-2009 | Nov 30th, 2009
1) Test the upgrade itself. Do problems arise? Has anything new been introduced that needs to be accounted for? If so, make sure it works properly.
2) Run functional tests that rely on the database to ensure they function properly.
3) Run performance tests to ensure data is obtained within specified performance parameters.
4) Ensure data integrity is maintained after upgrade. Contstraints, for example, should still be handled as expected.
5) Run load and/or stress test to ensure the upgraded database still handles user load and performs well under the most business-critical resource-intensive circumstances.
6) Test the Oracle client. Ideally, any issues will have been caught in the upgrade test, but it is a necessary step in the process.virgosls

Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
kurtz182- Member Since Nov-2009 | Nov 13th, 2009
The only reasonable answer is D) Users cannot test software effectively.
Users typically test a system during the Beta release of a product. Though companies should not rely only on this type of testing, it is useful in uncovering defects at little cost to the company. Throughout this period, users perform their day-to-day activities and are not thinking about product quality. They rarely if ever scan the user manual looking for situations of interest to test, so the answer is not A). They generally don't dream up situations randomly to visit all of the features of the system, so the answer is also not B). They don't have access to the company's business processes, so the answer is not C).mithr17

A Test metric is a standard means of measuring some attribute of the software testing process. They establish test progress against the test schedule and may be an indicator of future results. Metrics are produced in two forms – base and derived metrics.
Examples of base metrics:
# New test cases
# Regression test cases
# Test cases run
# Test cases not run
# Passes
# Fails
# Test cases under investigation
# Test cases blocked

Functional and Usability Defects
What is meant by functional defects and usability defects in general? Give example.
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
kurtz182- Member Since Nov-2009 | Dec 14th, 2009
Functional testing refers to tests that verify a specific action or function of an application. Functional testing is performed by testers. Usability testing is a technique used to evaluate a product by testing it on users. For example, when a tester finds that a text box is not validating properly, he has discovered a functional defect. When a user doesn't understand a validation message because it uses technical jargon, this would be considered a usability defect.
It is a good idea to differentiate where defects originate in order to more practically assess a defect's Severity and Priority and many quality managment systems include a "Where found" field that helps identify the source of a defect as being functional (found by tester) or usability (found by end-user).
Some software test teams have extended the definition of usability defect to include any defect that describes a lack of intuitiveness when using an application.

Mis-Communication in Bug
What will you (Tester) do if there is miscommunication in bugs, Every cycle is Ignored from developer side and Re-Opened from tester Side?
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
kurtz182- Member Since Nov-2009 | Dec 6th, 2009
In every test cycle, the defect is consistently 'Ignored' by the developer and 'Re-Opened' by the tester. This problem exists due to a miscommunication somewhere. What will you do as a tester to rectify this issue?
1) I would first make sure that I have entered accurate and thorough details in the defect report in order for the developer to reproduce the issue. I would include details about the test environment so the developer can duplicate it. I would also include screen shots to prove the defect does indeed exist.
If the developer 'Ignores' this, then s/he obviously believes there is no defect at all and that the application's functionality is working precisely as it is supposed to.
2) Next, I would cite the requirement in the defect report and describe my interpretation of it. Then I would describe how the existing functionality does not meet the intended requirement.
If the developer 'Ignores' this as well, then I begin to consider whether I have misinterpreted the requirement. It is possible that the developer is correct.
3) I would revisit and study the requirement to determine whether I misunderstood it when creating my test case(s). If necessary, I would meet with the Business Analyst to gain further understanding about the requirement. I would discuss my test case and the defect with the Business Analyst to determine whether my understanding and approach is correct.
If my research convinces me that I have fully understood the requirement and that my test case accurately and thoroughly tests it, then I would meet with the developer and discuss the results of my investigation with him/her. I would explain the requirement in the manner intended by the Business Analyst. I would reproducethe issue in an attempt to prove how the defect fails to satisfy the requirement. Hopefully, the developer will be encouraged to fix the defect.
If the developer continues to 'Ignore' this issue, then I will get the Business Analyst involved.
4) I would set up a meeting with the developer, Business Analyst, and myself in attendance. I would encourage the Business Analyst to explain the requirement to the developer and explain how the test case and its results properly exercise the requirement and identify a failure.
If the developer still 'ignores' this issue, perhaps it is time to replace the developer!

vk1978- Member Since Feb-2009 | Mar 25th, 2009
Priority will be given based on stage of life cycle,
1) Assume that application is middle stage (I mean to say build is 3rd one and still few more to come) and you are testing the application to accept it (Smoke/sanity Testing) for further testing I would like to give the preference as B, A, C Why I am giving last preference to C is when I am giving uncommon string then the application is getting crash, but as of now we have alternative and that is positive value, so with positive value we can work with the application Next why A is given second preference “black berry” Its company Name, not a simple title of application
And lastly why I am giving first preference to BI am not able to launch the application in first attempt then it is a major issue, while accepting the build (smoke/sanity testing) if you are not able to launch then definitely we will reject the build.
2) Assume application is completed and ready for use, then also I will give B, A, C Let me tell you in general way, Suppose you are a customer and interested to purchase Blackberry mobile and if it is not launching in first attempt, do you purchase that piece, no one will purchase, and coming second one company Label, Company goodwill is linked to it, and with this mistakes goodwill will be degraded so second preference, and coming to last one we have an alternative and that is we can give positive values with which that particular functionality will work Please correct me if I am wrong.

How will you select a models (like spiral, v-model) for a particular project?
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
Amit k Garg- Member Since May-2009 | May 4th, 2009
It depends on origination then type of project, time frame and money.
Example:
If project requirements are clear and fixed then we can use water fall or V-Model.
If creating a new project on basis of existing project with some additional features, in new language, different UI like these thinks, then we should prefer water fall.
If requirements are not clear and client is also not clear that what he is expecting then we should go through prototype model.
If you don’t have all requirements but you need to start project then you should prefer Spiral Model.kurtz182

If the project or product is developed for multiple customers, acceptance testing will be conducted in two phases called Alpha and Beta testing.
Alpha: Acceptance testing conducted by the customer in the developed environment.
This testing will be conducted to identify all the potential issues before releasing it(product/project) to the customers.
Beta: Acceptance testing conducted by the multiple customers in the customer environment.
Alpha and beta always prefered for the products.

it is not just the developer OR the Tester is responsible for integration testing, Both of them are equally responsible according to their responsibilities. The developer who writes the code is responsible for performing the integration of modules w.r.t. code ( should be understood as part White Box Testing ) Then after checking the modules for their integration it will be passed on to the Q.A. team, Here it will be the responsibility of the Q.A. team to check the integration b/w the modules according to the requirement specifications.

The top management has feeling that when there are any changes in the technology being used, development schedules etc, it was a waste of time to update the Test Plan.

You have argued that Test Plan is very important and you need to update your test plan from time to time. It’s not a waste of time and testing activities would be more effective when you have your plan clear. Use some metrics.

how will we prepare test cases
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
ravisohal- Member Since May-2008 | May 24th, 2008
Test Case based on the Test Plan. A test case is a document, which contain Test case ID, Title, Test Plan, Test Catagory being conducted, input, action or event, expected output, actual output and Result. As mentioned above, test case based on test plan. It relates to single event or action which must reflets it relation to the module of test plan. This is a work intensive activity with the testing expert doing the writing and with the assistance of the business expert and the development expert.
A good starting place is to identify some of the smallest or simplest business activities that the new software needs to support and define test cases for each of these activities. Then, define test cases that portray either larger business activities or specific sequences of smaller business activities that tend to
approximate useful business tasks. Check the software business requirements and
confirm that you have accounted for all required business activities with your test cases and add test cases for the business activities that are not covered yet by testing.

Editorial / Best Answer
Answered by: Satya Prakash
- Oct 4th, 2005
In any phase, the sooner we see a defect, the less is the cost spent on rectifying the defect. It becomes a costlier affair in later stages. The best phase is Requirements phase. When the defect is found in later phases, it costs more for its correction.
rohan.satpute

As we are aware, in SDLC later the defects identified, costlier is the Project Delieverable. Earlier the defect identified & resolved, cheaper is the costing. So, as per the provided option, Best time to resolve the defects is during the Requirement Phase.
