The correct answer is option 1.

Key Points

S1: Black-box tests are based on specifications; better at telling whether the program meets specification, better at finding errors of omission. 

Hence the statement I is False.

S2: White-box tests are based on code; better for finding crashes, out-of-bounds errors, file not closed errors.

Hence the statement II is False.

S3: Alpha testing is conducted at the developer’s site by a team of highly skilled testers for software that is developed as a product to be used by many customers.

Hence the statement III is True.
Therefore the correct answer is Only S1 and S2 are FALSE.
