Question 2
(a) “Software Testing” plays an important role in software development.

List down 5 reasons why is testing necessary.
 Earn customer trust

 To check the adaptability of the software
 To speed up software development
 To avoid risks
 To optimize the business
(b) Explain the term “Exhaustive testing” by using an example.
Exhaustive testing, which is also known as complete testing, occurs when

all the testers in the team are exhausted and when all the planned tests
have been executed. It is a quality assurance testing technique in which all
scenarios or data is tested for testing.
EX:
Consider an application in which a password field that accepts 5
characters, with no consecutive repeating entries. Hence, there are 26 * 26
* 26 *26*26 input permutations for alphabets only. Including special
characters and standard characters, there are much more combinations.
So, there are 256 * 256 * 256*256*256 input combinations.
(c) List four characteristics of “good” test case and briefly explain them.
Validity
The first important characteristic of a good test is validity. The test must really
measure what it has been designed to measure.
Reliability
A good test should be highly reliable.Reliability is usually checked by comparing

different sets of scores
Objectivity
By objectivity of a measuring instrument is meant for the degree to which

equally competent users get the same results.
Norms
In addition to reliability and validity good test needs norms. Norms are sets of
score obtained by whom the test is intended
(d) Distinguish between “Quality Assurance” and “Quality Control” by
explaining three differences between them.
Quality Assurance Quality Control
QA aim is to prevent the defect. QC aim is to identify and improve the
defects.
QA is the technique of managing QC is a method to verify quality.
quality.
QA does not involve executing the QC always involves executing the
program program.
All team members are responsible for Testing team is responsible for QC.
QA.
Verification Validation.
(e) Briefly explain and distinguish Verification and Validation.
Verification is the process of checking that a software achieves its goal without
any bugs. It is the process to ensure whether the product that is developed is
right or not. It verifies whether the developed product fulfills the requirements
that we have. Verification is static testing. Verification means Are we building
the product right?
Validation is the process of checking whether the software product is up to the

mark or in other words product has high level requirements. It is the process of
checking the validation of product i.e. it checks what we are developing is the
right product. it is validation of actual and expected product. Validation is the
dynamic testing.Validation means Are we building the right product?
[5 marks* 5 = 25 Marks]
Question 3
You are assigned to test hotel reservation system. The system is

basically having below features.
• Customers can reserve room online. Booking must made 30 days

prior to the arrival.
• A guest can make maximum 4 rooms at a time.
• Guest who are having loyalty cards, can claim 40% during their
stay between June to August, except weekends and holidays.
(a) Write down 5 test scenarios from above scenario. [1 mark*5
= 5 marks]
 Verify the user who have loyalty cards
 Check ability the user reservation
 Verify that user can add reservation.
 Check the user reservation date
 Check the user reservation room count maximum 4
Write down 10 test cases from above scenario. [2 marks*10 =

20 marks]
