WGU C857 SOFTWARE QUALITY
ASSURANCE UPDATED EXAM QUESTIONS
AND CORRECT ANSWERS
●● Walkthrough
Answer: The code walkthrough, like the inspection, is a set of
procedures and error-detection techniques for group code reading. It
shares much in common with the inspection process, but the procedures
are slightly different, and a different error-detection technique is
employed.
●● White box
Answer: is a software testing method in which the internal structure/
design/ implementation of the item being tested is known to the tester
●● Black box
Answer: is a method of software testing that examines the functionality
of an application without peering into its internal structures or workings.
This method of test can be applied virtually to every level of software
testing: unit, integration, system and acceptance.
●● Acceptance
Answer: is the process of comparing the program to its initial
requirements and the current needs of its end users. It is an unusual type
, of test in that it usually is performed by the program's customer or end
user and normally is not considered the responsibility of the
development organization.
●● Function
Answer: is a process of attempting to find discrepancies between the
program and the external specification. An external specification is a
precise description of the program's behavior from the end-user point of
view. (black box testing)
●● Types of White Box Testing
Answer: Unit Testing.
Static Analysis.
Dynamic Analysis.
Statement Coverage.
Branch testing Coverage.
Mutation Testing.
●● Types of Black Box Testing
Answer: functional, non-functional, and regression testing
●● Very limited
Answer: Which level of coding knowledge is needed to perform black
box testing?
