Which of the following defects is most likely to be found by a test harness?

1. A. Variance from programming standards.
2. B. A defect in middleware.
3. C. Memory leaks.
4. D. Regression defects.

Correct Answer: B
Variance from programming standards defects (option (A)) are found during the review or static testing process.
Therefore a test harness is unlikely to find a defect in programming standards.
Memory leak defects (option (C)) could potentially be found by a test harness designed to run many test cases. Regression defects (option (D)) could be found using many types of test tool.
Defects in middleware (option (B)) are generally more likely to be found by a test harness or a dynamic analysis tool than by any other type of tool.

4. D. Equivalence Partitioning

Correct Answer: D

You have been asked to improve the way test automation tools are being used in your company. Which one of the following is the BEST approach?

1. A. Selecting and automating scripts that test new functionality to find the most defects
2. B. Using a keyword-driven testing approach to separate the actions and data from the tool's script
3. C. Ensuring that all data, inputs and actions are stored in the tool's script for ease of maintenance
4. D. Keeping expected results separate from the automation tool to allow the testers to check the results

Correct Answer: A

When an organization considers the use of testing tools, they should:

1. A. Use a tool in order to help define a good test process because the tool will force process repeatability and therefore enforce good test process.
2. B. Always start by bringing in automated test execution tools as these tools have the greatest return on investment and therefore should be introduced first.
3. C. Perform analysis of the test process and then assess whether it can be supported through the introduction of tool support.
4. D. Allow the developers to select the testing tools because tools are technical and developers have the appropriate skills to advise on test tool selection and configuration.

Correct Answer: C
