CTFL_Syll2018 Exam Dumps : ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (Syllabus 2018)

The attributes that best match each level of testing are as follows14:

• Component testing: Stubs and drivers are often used (I), as they simulate the behavior of missing or incomplete components.
• Integration testing: Testing for functional and non-functional characteristics (VI), as integration testing verifies that components interact correctly and meet their specified requirements.
• System testing: The test environment should correspond to the production environment (II), as system testing evaluates the system’s compliance with its specified requirements under realistic conditions.
• Acceptance testing: Testing can be based on use cases (IV), as acceptance testing validates that the system meets the user’s needs and expectations

The question asks which of the test cases will ensure that the statement ‘Print ‘Hold’’ is exercised. The statement ‘Print ‘Hold’’ is executed when X > Y and Z < Y. Therefore, to exercise this statement, we need to choose a test case that satisfies these conditions. Among the options given in this question, only C satisfies these conditions. X = 42 > Y =43 and Z =42 < Y =43. Therefore, C is the correct answer.

Static testing is a type of testing that does not involve executing the software or system under test, but rather analyzing it using various techniques, such as reviews, inspections, walkthroughs, checklists, static analysis tools, etc. Static testing can be applied to any work product that participants know how to read and understand, such as requirements specifications, design specifications, code, test cases, test plans, user manuals, etc. Static testing can help find defects and improve the quality of any work product at any stage of the software development lifecycle.
