Software Testing Interview Question and Answers

36. What are the characteristic of process?
 
    Any process has the following characteristics:
  • The process prescribes all of the major process activities.
  • The process uses resources, subject to a set of constraints (such as a schedule), and produces intermediate and final products.
  • The process may be composed of sub processes that are linked in some way. The process may be defined as a hierarchy of processes, organized so that each sub process has its own process model.
  • Each process activity has entry and exit criteria, so that we know when the activity begins and ends.
  • The activities are organized in a sequence, so that it is clear when one activity is performed relative to the other activities.
  • Every process has a set of guiding principles that explain the goals of each activity.
37. What are the advantages of waterfall model?
 
    The various advantages of the waterfall model include:
  • It is a linear model.
  • It is a segmental model.
  • It is systematic and sequential.
  • It is a simple one.
  • It has proper documentation.
38. What is RAD?
  The RAD (Rapid Application Development Model) model is proposed when requirements and solutions can be modularized as independent system or software components, each of which can be developed by different teams. After these smaller system components are developed, they are integrated to produce the large software system solution.
39. What is system integration testing?
  Testing of software components that have been distributed across multiple platforms (e.g., client, web server, application server, and database server) to produce failures caused by system integration defects (i.e. defects involving distribution and back office integration).
40. What are the types of attributes?
 
  • Simple Attribute
  • Composite Attribute
  • Single Valued Attribute
  • Multivalued Attribute
  • Derived Attribute
