Review Comments of ISTQB Practice Questions 20/07/2025

Here's the detailed evaluation of your answers with feedback for each question:

Question 1 Feedback: Incorrect. The correct answer is B. While test automation increases speed and repeatability (B), it doesn't eliminate manual testing (A) as some tests require human judgment. It also cannot ensure 100% coverage (C) or replace planning (D). Study recommendation: Review test automation benefits in ISTQB syllabus section 6.1.

Question 2 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - risk management helps identify potential problems and prioritize testing. It doesn't guarantee execution timing (A), ensure all requirements are tested (C), or eliminate all risks (D). Well done understanding risk-based testing.

Question 3 Feedback: Incorrect. The correct answer is B (Equivalence Partitioning). Mutation testing (D) is white-box. Study recommendation: Review black-box vs white-box techniques in syllabus section 4.2.

Question 4 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - defect tools provide traceability and tracking. They don't fix defects automatically (A), eliminate regression testing (C), or guarantee no production defects (D). Good understanding of defect management.

Question 5 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - test case execution percentage is a key progress metric. The other options are irrelevant to test monitoring. Well done identifying appropriate metrics.

Question 6 Feedback: Incorrect. The correct answer is B (Error Guessing). Boundary analysis (A) is specification-based. Study recommendation: Review experience-based techniques in syllabus section 4.4.

Question 7 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - configuration management tracks test assets. It doesn't require identical environments (A), automate execution (C), or reduce production defects (D). Good understanding of configuration management.

Question 8 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - white-box testing uses code structure knowledge. The other options describe other test bases. Well done distinguishing white-box testing.

Question 9 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - test reports summarize activities and results. They don't assign blame (A), eliminate regression testing (C), or handle bonuses (D). Good understanding of test reporting.

Question 10 Feedback: Correct. Answer B is right - pair testing exemplifies collaboration. Independent testing (A) is the opposite approach. Well done identifying collaborative practices.

Overall Score: 7/10 (70%)

Study Recommendations:

1. Focus on distinguishing test techniques (black-box vs white-box vs experience-based)
2. Review test automation benefits and limitations
3. Practice classifying different test approaches

Your understanding of risk management, metrics, configuration management and reporting is strong. The areas needing improvement are primarily around technique classification. by deepseek-chat
