Software Testing and Quality Assurance

Question 1
Which of the following best describes unit testing in software development?

(A) Testing the UI elements exclusively.

(B) Testing multiple modules simultaneously to catch multi-component interactions.

(C) Testing how integrated modules work together.

(D) Testing individual modules/components in isolation.

Question 2
What is the primary goal of integration testing in software development?

(A) To test the entire system from start to finish.

(B) To evaluate the performance and user experience of the UI.

(C) To ensure individual code functions work perfectly in isolation.

(D) To verify that multiple units interact correctly.

Question 3
Which testing type focuses on assessing interface elements for proper functionality, consistency, and design?

(A) Load Testing.

(B) User Interface (UI) Testing.

(C) Integration Testing.

(D) Unit Testing.

Question 4
In a Quality Assurance process, which of the following activities helps in preventing defects from occurring?

(A) Implementing code reviews and static analysis.

(B) Relying on customer bug reports post-release.

(C) Concentrating only on integration tests.

(D) Focusing solely on automated testing after development.

Question 5
Which practice is essential for maintaining software reliability through repeated testing as new changes are introduced?

(A) Smoke Testing.

(B) Exploratory Testing.

(C) Regression Testing.

(D) Unit Testing.

Question 6
Which QA strategy best balances speed and thoroughness in testing?

(A) A hybrid approach combining automated and manual testing.

(B) Conducting only performance testing.

(C) Relying only on automated testing without periodic manual checks.

(D) Exclusively using manual testing.

Question 7
In establishing a robust test environment, which factor is most important for ensuring accurate QA results?

(A) Testing in a completely different environment than production.

(B) Ignoring network conditions during tests.

(C) Using outdated hardware to save costs.

(D) Replicating production environment configurations.

Question 8
In scenarios where defects are discovered late in the development cycle, which QA process is most effective in minimizing recurrence?

(A) Post-mortem analysis and preventive process improvements.

(B) Immediate bug fixes without analysis.

(C) Disregarding defect trends from previous projects.

(D) Only increasing the number of test cases.

Question 9
Which of the following best differentiates white-box testing from black-box testing?

(A) White-box testing is performed by end-users, whereas black-box testing is performed by developers.

(B) White-box testing only verifies UI behavior, while black-box testing examines hidden code.

(C) Both white-box and black-box testing solely focus on system performance metrics.

(D) White-box testing examines internal code structure, while black-box testing focuses on functionalities based on requirements.

Question 10
In a situation where continuous integration (CI) is in place, what is the main benefit of integrating automated tests in the pipeline?

(A) Creating more defects by increased testing frequency.

(B) Early detection of defects with continuous feedback.

(C) Decreasing overall testing quality due to automated scripts.

(D) Relying exclusively on automated tests and removing human oversight entirely.
