ISTQB-FL
Questions on Chapter 6
1) You test a system that produces very big output files. Their structure
must follow some set of predefined rules. The expected result of a test
case is the file that follows these rules. You want to execute a set of test
cases. Suppose you have a tool that takes two files as an input and
returns TRUE if they are identical and FALSE otherwise. What would be
the type of this tool in this case?
a) A test oracle
b) A comparator
c) A test data generator
d) A monitoring tool
2) Your manager asked you to participate in a tool selection process. What
task you may be given?
a) To assess the organizational maturity and decide whether the tool acquisition will be
beneficial to the organization
b) To decide on standard ways of using the tool across the organization
c) To evaluate how well the tool fits with existing processes and practices
d) To perform a pilot project.
3) A word processor can be classified as which type of tool, assuming the
classification is done according to the testing activities the tools support?
a) Test specification tool.
b) Test execution tool.
c) Test monitoring tool.
d) A word processor cannot be classified this way, as this is not a test tool.
4) What should be taken into account when we plan to use a keyword
driven approach?
a) The keyword-driven tool needs to interface with other tools or spreadsheets in order to
produce useful information in a format that fits the needs of the organization.
b) In order to introduce a keyword-driven approach we need to have a well-defined
inspection process.
c) In order to introduce a keyword-driven approach, we need to have a technical expertise in
scripting language.
d) We have to transform our SDLC model to the V-model.
