What is the primary goal of testing in problem solving?
Ensure software works as intended
Unit testing focuses on individual
components
What does integration testing verify?
How components work together
System testing evaluates the
entire
system.
Match the testing type with its focus:
Unit testing ↔️ Individual components
Integration testing ↔️ Interaction between components
System testing ↔️ Entire system
Adhering to a systematic testing plan detects and fixes issues
early
What is the main focus of unit testing?
Individual components
What does integration testing check in software development?
How components interact
System testing ensures the entire system meets
functional requirements
.
Match the testing type with its benefit:
Unit testing ↔️ Simplifies debugging
Integration testing ↔️ Verifies communication
System testing ↔️ Ensures meets requirements
Detecting and fixing issues early improves software
quality
Testing simplifies debugging by identifying issues in individual
components
.
What is the outcome of verifying communication between components in integration testing?
Reliable integration
What are the benefits of testing in software development?
Simplifies debugging, verifies communication, ensures requirements are met
Testing simplifies debugging by identifying issues in individual
components
Testing verifies communication between components to ensure reliable
integration
.
How does testing ensure software meets user needs?
Evaluates the entire system
Testing improves overall software quality and
reliability
What is the primary goal of test case design?
Verify specified requirements
Arrange the following test case design principles in order of importance:
1️⃣ Coverage
2️⃣ Clarity
3️⃣ Completeness
4️⃣ Independence
5️⃣ Traceability
Match the testing type with its focus:
Unit testing ↔️ Individual components
Integration testing ↔️ Interaction between components
System testing ↔️ Entire system
What is the focus of unit testing?
Individual components
Integration testing verifies communication between
components
.
System testing ensures the entire system meets user
requirements
What are the outcomes of testing mentioned in the study material?
Easier maintenance, reliable integration, meets user needs
Match the testing outcome with its description:
Easier maintenance ↔️ Identifies issues in individual components
Reliable integration ↔️ Ensures components interact correctly
Meets user needs ↔️ Evaluates the entire system
Arrange the steps of the test execution process in the correct order:
1️⃣ Prepare the test environment
2️⃣ Run test cases
3️⃣ Report test results
Why is test result analysis crucial in problem solving?
Identifies issues and improves quality
Improving the testing process enhances test efficiency and
accuracy
