4 Which of the following requirements is testable?

a)The system shall be user friendly.
b)The safety-critical parts of the system shall contain 0 faults.
c)The response time shall be less than one second for the specified design load.
d)The system shall be built to be portable.

Đáp án là c) Nhưng em thấy a), d) cũng test được mà -> không hỉu lém. Anh giải thích cho em với ^^

Hi Ngân,

Theo như câu hỏi thì có 4 yêu cầu, mình có thể test được yêu cầu nào?

Anh xét từng yêu cầu của khách hàng nhé.

1. Yêu cầu thứ nhất: Phần mềm sẽ thân thiện với người dùng
Yêu cầu này là nói chung chung, không cụ thể, "thân thiện" là như thế nào? dễ sử dụng, dễ thấy, giúp thao tác nhanh, giảm nhập liệu đầu vào giống nhau, tránh các bước thao tác trùng lặp,... có thể đối với người này thì thân thiện nhưng đối với người khác (ít rành máy tính hơn) thì không thân thiện. Hoặc vấn đề thiết kế giao diện đẹp mắt, mỗi người có mỗi cách nhìn khác nhau nên không thể mang ra so sánh được.
=> cái này không thể test được (nghĩa là kết quả của phần mềm phải đúng với spec 100%)

2. Tính an toàn (safety-critical) của phần mềm phải là không có lỗi.
Chắc chắn mình sẽ test bảo mật đối với sản phẩm được tạo ra nhưng có ai bảo đảm là sẽ không bao giờ bị tấn công hay không? mình chỉ có thể test mọi trường hợp tấn công có thể mà mình biết.
=> không thể chắc chắn 100%

3. Thời gian phản hồi của phần mềm phải ít hơn 1 giây.
Điều này đương nhiên mình có thể đo đếm được
=> có thể test được

4. Hệ thống phải có tính dễ vận chuyển
Mình chỉ có thể test rằng hệ thống này dễ cài đặt trên windows (XP, server 2003, Vista hay win7) hoặc linux hoặc Mac OS.
Nếu spec chỉ ra cụ thể thì mình có thể đáp ứng được nhưng trong trường hợp này không nói cụ thể, nếu có một hệ điều hành mới hoặc một cấu hình, một loại máy mới thì có đảm bảo rằng phần mềm của mình có thể cài đặt, vận hành trên đó không?
=> vì vậy không thể test được yêu cầu này 100% - chỉ đáp ứng một phần nào thôi. (nếu yêu cầu rõ ràng cụ thể hơn thì có thể test được)

Nếu chưa bằng lòng thì em cho ý kiến nha.

Hi Ngan,

Em nhầm rồi, phần 2 và phần 3 có câu 26 gần giống nhau (vì câu hỏi thì giống mà phần trả lời thì khác nhau) nhưng kết quả đều là A
Không phải phần 1 và 3 nhé.

Phần 2:

Câu 26. The difference between re-testing and regression testing is:

a) re-testing ensures the original fault has been removed; regression testing looks for unexpected side-effects
b) re-testing looks for unexpected side-effects; regression testing ensures the original fault has been removed
c) re-testing is done after faults are fixed; regression testing is done earlier
d) re-testing is done by developers; regression testing is done by independent testers

Phần 3:

Câu 26. The difference between re-testing and regression testing is:

a) re-testing is running a test again; regression testing looks for unexpected side effects
b) re-testing looks for unexpected side effects; regression testing is repeating those tests
c) re-testing is done after faults are fixed; regression testing is done earlier
d) re-testing uses different environments, regression testing uses the same environment
e) re-testing is done by developers, regression testing is done by independent testers

Ủa, câu hỏi của phần 1 nè

26 Data flow analysis studies:

a) possible communications bottlenecks in a program.
b) the rate of change of data values as a program executes.
c) the use of data on paths through the code.
d) the intrinsic complexity of the code.

Có giống phần 3 đâu, chỉ có câu 26 phần 2 và phần 3 giống nhau thôi.
