Which of the following methods can find an element by its class name? Select two options

  1. find__element__by__css__selector
  2. find.__element__by__id.
  3. find_ element_bY_xpath
  4. find_element_by_tag_name
  5. find_element_by_partial_link_text

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

Note that the method name in the options are not in proper format, the correct one should be find_element_by_class_name and find_element_by_tag_name



What is the technical debt of a project?

  1. The cost of hardware taken into account in the project budget
  2. The cost of additional work in the project due to defects and inefficiencies in code and project design
  3. The acronym of "directly evaluating binary testing"
  4. The cost of implementation of keywords in Keyword Driven Testing, which is to be performed by technical tester

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The correct answer is B. The cost of additional work in the project due to defects and inefficiencies in code and project design

Technical debt is a term used to describe the cost of maintaining and improving software over time. It is the cost of additional work that must be done in a project due to defects and inefficiencies in the code and project design. This additional work can include fixing bugs, adding new features, improving performance, and refactoring code.

Technical debt can be caused by a variety of factors, such as poor design decisions, insufficient testing, lack of proper documentation, and lack of time or resources to fully implement a feature. It can also be incurred when shortcuts are taken to meet a deadline or when code is rushed out to production without adequate testing.

As a project progresses, the technical debt can accumulate and become increasingly costly to manage. Managing technical debt is an ongoing process that requires regular monitoring, prioritization, and addressing of the most pressing issues.

In summary, technical debt is not the cost of hardware, nor the acronym of "directly evaluating binary testing" or cost of implementation of keywords in Keyword Driven Testing.



Which of the following is a limitation of a test automation project that is likely to cause an organization to get less return on their investment than they expected?

  1. Approach stating that all manual tests should be automated
  2. The pesticide paradox is decreased with automation
  3. Short-term thinking and inadequate planning for the automation
  4. Executing tests outside of normal business hours

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Test automation can be a valuable tool for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of software testing, but it is not a panacea. One of the biggest limitations of test automation projects is that they require significant planning and investment to be successful. If an organization approaches test automation with short-term thinking and inadequate planning, they are likely to get less return on their investment than they expected.

Some common issues that can arise from inadequate planning include:

Not having clear goals and objectives for the automation project
Not identifying the right test cases to automate
Not having the right infrastructure, tools, and resources in place to support the automation
Not having a clear understanding of the costs and benefits of automation
To avoid these issues, organizations should take a strategic approach to test automation, starting with a well-defined plan that takes into account the specific needs and goals of the project.

It's worth noting that approach stating that all manual tests should be automated, is not a limitation as it depends on the context of the project, whether all manual tests should be automated or not. Also, The pesticide paradox is not decreased with automation, it is a term that refers to how tests that are run repeatedly against the same software tend to become less effective over time as the software changes and the tests become out of date.



Which of the following is a good definition for a fixture?

  1. A mock object or environment used to consistently test some item, device, or piece of software
  2. A function in a software library whose main purpose is to call another function often adding or enhancing functionality
  3. A test automation pattern which requires that technical logic and business logic be dealt with at different levels
  4. An environment for automated test scripts to execute, including tools, libraries

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

A fixture in the context of test automation is a fixed state of a set of objects used as a baseline for running tests. It can be considered as a set of objects (mock objects, test doubles, test data) that provide a known and fixed environment for a test. The goal of a fixture is to ensure that tests run consistently and reliably, regardless of the state of the system under test.

A fixture is often used to create a known state for the system under test, such as creating test data or setting up a specific configuration. This allows the test to run in a predictable and repeatable manner, making it easier to identify the cause of any test failures.

It's worth noting that B and C are not correct definition of a fixture. B is related to a function, while a fixture is a set of objects, and C is related to a pattern in test automation, while a fixture is an environment. D, an environment for automated test scripts to execute, including tools, libraries, is also a correct but broader definition of a fixture, which includes the objects as well.



Consider the following test steps;



Which of the following function signatures is the best for keyword implementing test step number 1?

  1. def login ():
  2. def login_with_admin_credentials () :
  3. def login(username, password) :
  4. def create_user (username, user_email, password)

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The first test step is to "login with admin credentials" which means that the user needs to enter a username and password to log in. Therefore, the best function signature for implementing this test step would be one that takes two parameters: username and password.

Option C, def login(username, password) :, is the best function signature for this test step because it takes two arguments, username and password, that are required for the login process. This function can be used to login with the admin credentials by passing the correct username and password.

Option A, def login(): does not take any arguments, and it's not enough to perform the login process.
Option B, def login_with_admin_credentials() :, might be useful if the function is going to login with hardcoded admin credentials, but it's less flexible than option C because it does not accept any input from the user.
Option D, def create_user (username, user_email, password) is not related to the login process and it's not suitable for this test step.
