Q: 1 The testing method, which is generally used as an acceptance test for a software system is
Unit Testing
Integration Testing
System Testing
Regression Testing
[ Option C ]
In the software testing process, System Testing is generally used as an acceptance test because it evaluates the complete and integrated software system as a whole.
At this stage, the system is tested against the specified requirements to ensure that it behaves correctly in a real-world environment before being delivered to the user.
System testing verifies all functional and non-functional requirements and is usually the last level of testing before acceptance by the client.
Q: 2 Choose the correct statement
Stubs are essential in top-down testing, Test Drivers are essential in bottom-up testing
Test Drivers are essential in top-down testing, Stubs are essential in bottom-up testing
Stubs and Test Drivers are essential in top-down testing
None of the above statement is correct
[ Option A ]
In Integration Testing, modules are tested by combining them step by step. Sometimes, required modules are not yet developed, so we use Stubs and Test Drivers to simulate missing parts.
Q: 3 Which testing ensures that each function works correctly?
Unit testing.
Integration testing.
System testing.
Acceptance testing.
[ Option A ]
The Unit Testing verifies the functionality of individual components or functions in isolation.
Q: 4 In the context of basis path testing, let the flow graph G (V, E) is drawn using the procedural design or source code. If graph G have 17 edges and 13 nodes, what is cyclomatic complexity of G?
Five
Four
Six
Three
[ Option C ]
Cyclomatic complexity tells us how many independent paths exist in a program. Here, graph has 17 edges and 13 nodes, there are 6 independent paths that must be tested to cover all possible branches in the logic.
Cyclomatic Complexity (V(G)) :
V(G)=E−N+2
Where:
E is number of edges given as 17.
N is number of nodes given as 13.
So,
V(G) = 17−13+2
V(G) = 6

Control structure testing is a type of White-Box testing that focuses on the logical control structures of a program, such as decisions, loops, and conditions, to ensure that all possible execution paths are tested. It includes techniques like, condition testing, data flow testing, Loop testing etc.
The Graph-Based Testing does not belong to control structure testing. It falls under Black-Box testing techniques, where the focus is on relationships between inputs, outputs, and modules rather than internal control flow.
Q: 7 Which of these is fault base testing technique?
Stress Testing
Unit Testing
Beta Testing
Mutation Testing
[ Option D ]
Fault-Based Testing techniques are designed to evaluate how well a software system can handle errors or faults. The idea is to intentionally introduce faults and check whether the testing process can detect them.
Mutation Testing is a well-known fault-based testing technique. It involves making small modifications (called mutants) to the program’s source code intentionally, to check if the existing test cases can detect these faults.
Q: 8 Integration testing focuses on:

Q: 10 The overhead code required to be written for unit testing is called
I. driver
II. stub
III. scaffolding
Only I
Only II
Only III
Only I and II
[ Option C ]

Q: 11 The software modules M1 and M2 have the McCabe’s cyclomatic complexity numbers N1 and N2 respectively. When they are integrated sequentially, the net cyclomatic complex number is
N1 + N2
N1 * N2
N1 + N2 +1
N1 + N2-1
[ Option D ]
Cyclomatic Complexity (McCabe’s Complexity) measures the number of independent paths in a program. It is used to determine testing effort.
When two modules are independent, their complexities simply add. However, when modules are integrated sequentially, they are connected by a control flow, which removes one independent path. Since execution flows from one module to another.
So, for Sequential Integration: Combined Complexity = N1+N2-1
Q: 12 Testing carried out by users at their own locations is called?
Beta Testing
Alpha Testing
Regression Testing
Monkey Testing
[ Option A ]
Beta Testing is the type of testing performed by end users at their own locations in a real working environment. It is carried out after alpha testing and helps identify real-world issues, usability problems, and hidden bugs before the final release of the software.
Q: 13 Let M be a node that represents a if-then-else node in a program graph. Let the number of paths from its ‘if’ part to the end node be ‘y’ and from the ‘else’ part to the end node be ‘z’. If the number of path from the start node to the node M is ‘x’, then the total number of paths through M is
xy+z
x(y+z)
x+y+z
xz+y
[ Option B ]
In a Program Graph, each node represents a statement or a decision, and an edge represents possible control flow. When we reach a node, the number of paths to that node is the sum over all its incoming edges of the number of paths along each edge.
For a control‑flow construct like if‑then‑else, any path that reaches the decision node branches into the then part or the else part. Each of these branches can then lead to multiple paths to the end node.
From the start node to M, there are x different paths. After reaching M, each of these paths can go through either the if part (y paths) or the else part (z paths). Therefore, the total number of paths after node M becomes (y+z).
Since each of the x incoming paths can combine with all possible paths after M, we multiply them. Hence, the total number of paths through node M is: x*(y+z).

48
38
28
60
[ Option C ]
In software testing, the Error Seeding technique is used to estimate the number of remaining (undetected) real errors. It assumes that seeded and real errors have similar behavior and detection probability. In error seeding technique, we use the relation:

Given:
Now Apply the Relation:
Q: 18 Technique used to evaluate the quality of test cases is called _________.
Mutation Testing
Regression Testing
Alpha Testing
Debugging
[ Option A ]
In software testing, different techniques are used to check not only the program but also the quality of test cases. One such technique is Mutation Testing, where small changes (mutations) are made in the program code to see whether the existing test cases can detect those changes. If test cases fail to detect errors, it means they are weak.
Q: 19 The cyclomatic complexity of each of the modules A and B shown below is 10. What is the cyclomatic complexity of the sequential integration shown on the right-hand side?
19
21
20
10
[ Option A ]
Cyclomatic Complexity (V(G)) represents the number of independent paths in a program and can be calculated using either V(G) = Decision Points + 1 or by combining complexities of modules. Here, each module A and B has complexity 10, so each contains 10-1 = 9 decision points.
When the two modules are integrated sequentially, their decision points add together: 9+9 = 18. Applying the formula again, V(G) = 18+1 = 19. This is equivalent to the direct method V(G) = V(G1)+V(G2)-1 = 10+10-1 = 19, where 1 is subtracted due to the connection between modules.
