You are working on a project to build a purchasing system. The main requirements for the system are that it shall:
* Allow users to enter details of items that they wish to have purchased and, from these details, create a purchase request.
* Take each purchase request through a workflow that will allow the requestor's line manager to approve the request, reject it or return it for clarification / modification.
* Forward approved requests to the Purchasing Department.
* Allow purchasers to find the best available supplier for each approved request and place the request on that supplier as a purchase order.
The solution is being developed according to the company's traditional V-model methodology. The requirements are clearly documented and include a business process model. Operational profiles have been created to guide performance testing.
Initial item entry will involve a check that each item entered exists on the master stock file and that the user is entitled to request it; this depends on user role and grade. Line manager authorization will be assisted by a recommendation made by the system according to relevant business rules, although the manager can override this recommendation. For approved requests, the workflow will continue to support the process through to placing of the purchase order.
Planning has begun for system testing and the Test Manager has asked you, the senior TA, to help with it.
What would be the MOST effective techniques for functional testing of this project?
a) Combinatorial testing
b) Random testing
c) CRUD testing
d) State transition testing
e) Scenario-based testing
f) Decision table testing
g) Exploratory testing

The following minimized decision table shows the rules for rewarding members of a hotel's loyalty scheme who have booked a room, according to the type of room (luxury or not) and/or whether they have prepaid for breakfast (yes or no). The loyalty scheme has tiers Bronze, Silver and Gold. All combinations are feasible.

You are working on a project to replace an old sales and merchandising system with a new system that will be based on modern platforms. The old system is still in production but is poorly documented and expensive to maintain. The new version will be developed using modern technology. The main requirements for the system are that it shall:
* Load sales data, sent electronically from the stores each evening, into a central database.
* Produce actual sales reports for the merchandisers, whose job is to manage stock levels in stores.
* Produce sales forecast reports, based on a combination of sales history and forecasting parameters. The parameters will be entered by the merchandisers into a browser-based front end and the reports will be produced overnight. The users will be able to see the reports next day, on screen or in print, by requesting this through the browser.
Requirements 1 and 2 are satisfied by the existing system and will be rewritten with no significant functional changes. Requirement 3 is new and has been clearly specified. Because of the poor test basis you have decided to perform experience-based functional correctness testing for requirements 1 and 2 with the support of checklists. Which would be the BEST items to include in the checklist for testing Requirement 2?
a) Does the sales quantity in the database for any one product in a particular store, equal the sales data input for that product / store?
b) Does the total sales value in the report for all products in a particular store, equal the sales data input for that store?
c) Does the sales quantity in the report for any one product in a particular store, equal the sales data input for that product / store?
d) Does successful login allow access to the report parameter entry features?
e) Does the total sales value in the database for all products in a particular store, equal the sales data input for that store?
