1. Test coverage is defined as. 

Assuring that the application has been covered by the test process. 

2. Describe the characteristics of a test bed. 

Test beds are files / tables needed to test a system / unit whose contents have been predefined to meet the conditions defined in designing test cases. 

3. Give three techniques for creation of test data. 

1) Scripting
2) Test beds
3) Production data 

4. A test script includes a procedure for executing the test and what other components? (Name the maximum) 

1) Test case
2) Functions to be tested
3) Test performed
4) Set-up procedures
5) Validation procedures 

5. What is the purpose of a test log? 

As each part of the test plan is executed, control can be maintained by using a document created to record test activities.
A simple worksheet or spreadsheet can be used.

6. What type of information should be included on a test log? 

The test identifier, the test activity, who executed the test, the start and stop time of the test, and remarks or comments.

7. The purpose of recording defects is to make a complete record of all discrepancies found during testing. The input to this task would include (name 3 items):

1) The test plan
2) The test cases
3) The test logs

8. A defect can be identified in three ways. Name them. 

1) Missing
2) Wrong
3) Extra 

9. Regression testing is the easiest way to uncover defects. True or False Why?


True. Regression testing revalidates that changes made to the system do not adversely influence other system functions. 

10. What is the purpose of code coverage tools? 

They are used to show the extent to which the logic in the program was executed during testing.
