We've prepared here an interesting 'bug life cycle in software quiz' for you. Take this quiz and get the chance to test your knowledge about the bug or defect testing life cycle. Bug life cycle explains the process in which a defect goes through different stages in its entire life. The quiz below consists of multiple-choice questions based on the bug life cycle process and its related concepts. Play this quiz and see how well you can perform in it.

Questions and Answers

1.

Which of the following is not a state of a Bug in Bug Life Cycle:
- A.
  
  New
- B.
  
  Open
- C.
  
  Verified
- D.
  
  Deffered
- E.
  
  Critical
Correct Answer
E. Critical

Explanation
The Bug Life Cycle consists of various states that a bug can go through, including New, Open, Verified, Deferred, and Closed. However, Critical is not a state in the Bug Life Cycle. Critical is typically used to describe the severity or impact of a bug, rather than its current state in the life cycle.

If a defect is delayed for later phases it proves more costly. State true or false.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Delaying a defect for later phases can indeed prove to be more costly. This is because defects that are not identified and fixed early in the development process can lead to a ripple effect, causing more issues and complications in subsequent phases. Fixing a defect at a later stage may require more resources, time, and effort, ultimately increasing the overall cost of the project. Therefore, it is important to address and resolve defects as early as possible to minimize the potential impact on the project's budget and timeline.

3.

Executing the same test case by giving the number of inputs on same build called as?
- A.
  
  Regression Testing
- B.
  
  Retesting
- C.
  
  Ad-Hoc Testing
- D.
  
  Smoke Testing
Correct Answer
B. Retesting

Explanation
Retesting refers to the process of rerunning the same test case with the same inputs on the same build. It is done to ensure that the defects found in the previous test execution have been fixed and to verify that the system is now functioning correctly. Regression testing, on the other hand, involves retesting the modified parts of the software to ensure that the changes have not introduced new defects. Ad-Hoc testing is an informal and unplanned testing approach, while Smoke testing is a preliminary testing to check if the critical functionalities of the system are working fine.

4.

Boundary value analysis belongs to which testing method?
- A.
  
  White Box Testing
- B.
  
  Black Box Testing
- C.
  
  Grey Box Testing
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
B. Black Box Testing

Explanation
Boundary value analysis is a testing technique that involves testing the boundaries or limits of input values to identify any errors or defects. It is used to determine if the system behaves correctly at the edges of the input domain. Since boundary value analysis focuses on the input and output without considering the internal structure of the system, it falls under the category of black box testing. Black box testing is a method where the internal workings of the system are not known or considered during the testing process.

Executing the same test case on a modified build called as?
- A.
  
  Sanity Testing
- B.
  
  Monkey Testing
- C.
  
  Retesting
- D.
  
  Regression Testing
Correct Answer
D. Regression Testing

Explanation
Regression testing is the correct answer because it involves retesting a modified build to ensure that the existing functionalities are not affected by the changes made. It helps in identifying any new defects or issues that may have been introduced during the modification process. This type of testing is important to ensure that the software remains stable and reliable after any modifications or enhancements.

6.

Which is Black-Box Testing method?
- A.
  
  Code coverage
- B.
  
  Fault injection
- C.
  
  Equivalence Partitioning
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Equivalence Partitioning

Explanation
Equivalence Partitioning is a Black-Box Testing method that divides the input data into different equivalence classes and selects representative values from each class to test the system. This technique ensures that all the different possible scenarios and variations in the input data are covered, without needing to know the internal workings or code of the system being tested. It is an effective method to identify defects and errors in the system's behavior and functionality.

Informing the developer which bug to be fixed first is called as?
- A.
  
  Severity
- B.
  
  Priority
- C.
  
  Traceability
- D.
  
  Fixability
Correct Answer
B. Priority

Explanation
Priority refers to the order in which bugs or issues should be addressed and fixed based on their importance and impact on the system. It helps developers and teams determine which bugs should be fixed first to ensure that critical issues are resolved promptly and efficiently. Severity, on the other hand, refers to the impact or seriousness of a bug or issue, while traceability is the ability to trace and track requirements, changes, and bugs. Fixability is not a term commonly used in bug tracking or software development.

Rate this question:
8.

How severe the bug is affecting the application is called as?
- A.
  
  Severity
- B.
  
  Priority
- C.
  
  Traceability
- D.
  
  Fixability
Correct Answer
A. Severity

Explanation
Severity refers to how severe the bug is affecting the application. It is a measure of the impact or extent of the bug's negative consequences on the functionality and performance of the application. Severity helps in prioritizing and addressing bugs based on their impact, with higher severity bugs being given more priority for fixing.

Rate this question:
9.

Which one of the below is not a Bug Tracking tool?
- A.
  
  Bugzilla
- B.
  
  Team Track
- C.
  
  Selenium
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Selenium

Explanation
Selenium is not a Bug Tracking tool. It is actually an open-source software testing framework used for automating web browsers. While Bugzilla and Team Track are both Bug Tracking tools commonly used in software development, Selenium serves a different purpose in the software testing process.

Rate this question:
10.

What is not present in the test case?
- A.
  
  Requirement ID
- B.
  
  Test Case ID
- C.
  
  Bug ID
- D.
  
  All of them
Correct Answer
C. Bug ID

Explanation
The correct answer is "Bug ID" because the question is asking what is not present in the test case, and out of the given options, Bug ID is the only one that is not related to the test case itself. Requirement ID and Test Case ID are both important components of a test case, while Bug ID is used to track and identify specific bugs or issues found during testing.

11.

Defered status in bug life cycle means ____________.
- A.
  
  Developer feels that the bug is not genuine
- B.
  
  Bug is repeated twice or the two bugs mention the same concept of the bug
- C.
  
  The bug is expected to be fixed in next releases
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. The bug is expected to be fixed in next releases

Explanation
Defered status in bug life cycle means that the bug is expected to be fixed in future releases. This means that the bug has been acknowledged and recognized as a valid issue, but it has been decided to postpone its resolution until a later version or release of the software. This could be due to various reasons such as time constraints, prioritization of other critical bugs, or the need for further analysis and planning before addressing the bug.

Rate this question:
12.

What is a defect?
- A.
  
  It is found in the development environment before the product is shipped to the respective customer.
- B.
  
  It is the deviation from actual and the expected value.
- C.
  
  It is found in the product itself after it is shipped to the respective customer.
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. It is found in the product itself after it is shipped to the respective customer.

Explanation
A defect refers to an issue or flaw that is identified in the product after it has been shipped to the customer. This means that the product does not meet the expected standards or specifications. Defects are typically discovered during the testing or usage phase by the end user or customer. This answer is supported by the statement "It is found in the product itself after it is shipped to the respective customer."
