software testing objective questions
Regarding first question as per my opinion and as per CBOK
Verification answers the question, “Did we build the right system?” while validations
addresses, “Did we build the system right?”.
Plz update the answer accordingly.
Thanks
Sujata
i want to join software company and so test my knowlege about testing thats it
@sujatha
Validation ensures that ‘you built the right thing’ and Verification ensures that ‘you built it right’.
‘Building the right thing’(Validation) refers back to the user’s needs,
while ‘building it right’(Verification) checks that the documented development process was followed.
Simply saying, Verification involves the process in building the product (i.e., all the documentation, walkthroughs, etc)
while Validation involves the actual testing in which we test that the product has been built as per client’s need and requirements has been met.
Hope this clears you sujatha….
Q14) Let’s put it this way: Defect management process.
It is a process that constitutes defect prevention. Because to avoid occurance one needs to follow a process..documentation process,etc
Management Reporting: This is to bring it to the notice of the management incase a new process/changes in the existing process are made towards defect prevention/reduction.
Deliverables base-lining is an activity which is not a part of a process as it is mostly taken up at the end of a phase (say regression testing). For the defects that are identified in a given phase can have Defect Prevention Process to avoid them occuring again and the management might approve the process.
henc correct answer is ‘b’

Hey can you please give me the question answer of ISTQB certification Fondation level if you have.
Hi,
according to CSTE study guide, the answer to question 14 should be d. since in the figure given in the study guide, defect prevention, deliverable baselining and yes even management reporting is part of the defect management process.
I agree with Sujata and Thulasi, Regarding first question as per CBOK Verification answers the question, “Did we build the right system?” while validations addresses, “Did we build the system right?”.
See CBOK 1.9.1 Verification versus Validation
Thanks

so nice
thanks for the question,and answer. i had taken the test… its good.
It is very useful , It alos be updated
Thanks
The answer to Q1 is a.
Verification: comprises all activities that deal with checking whether the processes and standards followed are right. For example, any audit or review will be a verification task. I am sure you will agree reviews are intended to go beyond what the requirements suggest and check for testability of the requirements and also the validity of the requriements. Hence, verification is checking if we are building the right product; i.e. if the product will really help the customer whereas validation (as in testing) checks if we are building the product (as defined in the requirements) right! Hope this clarifies.
