ISTQB ASTQB Practice Test - Questions Answers, Page 3

If a tool is able to simulate the way in which a specific device would respond to an application, it is considered to be what type of simulator?

Which of the following is a generic tool that would be useful for a mobile application testing project?

In what way might a mobile device itself supply data to the mobile application?

Which of the following is true about a browser-based application?

Which of the following is a reason to use simulators for testing?

You have just been assigned to test a native mobile application for a delivery recording device used by mail and package couriers. This is a new version of a product that is already in production. The production version of the product has had issues with the hardware particularly with capturing signatures entered on the device and with associating photo images to the proper delivery addresses. This has resulted in a problem with reconciling the package delivery information. You need to test the application on a network with 1000 of these devices sending information back to the main office. Budget is limited as is the ability to obtain 1000 devices.

What should you do?

You are responsible for performance testing for a new hybrid mobile application that will run on smartphones. The application will use the phone's GPS capability to determine the altitude of the phone. This information will be used to send information to the user indicating the change in their "safe limit" for alcohol consumption. You expect your highest usage of the system to be on New Years

Eve when many people are skiing at high altitudes and will need to check their safe limit. For the first year of usage, 5,000 concurrent users are expected to use the application on that one evening.

Given this information, what is the best approach to use for conducting the performance test?

You have a need to test network connectivity in a variety of environments to determine if your web site will respond fast enough and reliably enough to the requests from your mobile web-based application. You don't have the ability to create these environments within your test facilities.

What is the best option to use to conduct this testing?

What is the best way to verify that a simulator is giving reliable results?
