Which of the following statements is/are FALSE with respect to software testing ?

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

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.

Q8.The following is the comment written for a C function. /* This function computes the roots of a quadratic equation a.x∧2 + b.x + c = 0. The function stores two real roots in *root1 and *root2 and returns the status of validity of roots. It handles four different kinds of cases. (i) When coefficient a is zero irrespective of discriminant (ii) When discriminant is positive (iii) When discriminant is zero (iv) When discriminant is negative. Only in case (ii) and (iii), the stored roots are valid. Otherwise 0 is stored in the roots. The function returns 0 when the roots are valid and -1 otherwise. The function also ensures rootl >= root2. int get_QuadRoots(float a, float b, float c, float *root1, float *root2); */ A software test engineer is assigned the job of doing black box testing.
