This document contains 100+ final exam questions and fully verified answers for the course Software Quality Assurance (SQA), aligned with the 2025/2026 academic year. It is structured as a high-level review of advanced software testing methods, web application testing challenges, and formal testing models such as finite state machines (FSM). All content is formatted for quick studying and designed to support university assessments or certification preparation. Major topics include: Finite State Machine (FSM) Testing, including the Chow (W) method and state characterization Bypass Testing strategies and its role in validating constraints, security, robustness, and automation Fuzz Testing (Fuzzing) methodologies, including Generic, Pattern-Based, Intelligent, Large-Volume, and Exploit Variant approaches Common challenges in testing web applications, such as loosely coupled modules, dynamic content, control flow unpredictability, and runtime integration Manual, Scripted, and Capture-Replay Testing strategies with pros, cons, and automation relevance Regression Testing concepts and reasons for failure, including invalid test values, outdated expected outputs, and incorrect fixes This document emphasizes modern and practical quality assurance approaches used in web application testing, security testing, and automated testing environments. Each answer is detailed and reflects current industry practices and academic expectations. Best suited for: University students in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or QA tracks Learners preparing for SQA final exams, practical assessments, or certification tests Instructors needing advanced Q&A examples for final review or class handouts QA professionals interested in strengthening FSM and fuzzing-based testing methods Keywords: software quality assurance, FSM, finite state machine, Chow method, bypass testing, fuzz testing, exploit variant, regression testing, test automation, script testing, capture replay, control flow, dynamic content, loosely coupled systems, manual testing, software robustness, software security, web application testing, test constraints, dynamic integration

Finite State Machine - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔an abstract representation of

behavior exhibited by some systems. a system that can only be in one

state at a time and changes between states based on certain inputs or

conditions.


Chow (W) method - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Step 1: Estimate the maximum number

of states (m) in the correct implementation of the given FSM M.

Step 2: Construct the characterization set W for M.

Step 3: (a) Construct the testing tree for M and (b) generate the transition

cover set P from the testing tree.

, Step 4: Construct set Z from W and m.

Step 5: Desired test set=P.Z


combinatorial design rationale - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔To ensure high reliability

across the intended environments, the application must be tested under as

many environments as possible


4 Challenges in testing web applications - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔1. Loosely

coupled

2. Dynamic Content

3. Control Flow

4. Dynamic Integration


Loosely coupled - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Modules that are relatively independent,

so we don't know what modules will call what.


Dynamic Content - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Parts of the program are generated

dynamically


Control Flow - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Users can make unexpected changes to the

flow of control Ex: Back buttons, refreshing, caching, forward button, URL

hacking
