Technical Questions

a.) Quality Assurance

Quality assurance is an activity that establishes and evaluates the processes that produce products. Quality assurance would measure processes to identify weaknesses and then correct them to continually improve the process: Eg. Code review.

b.) Quality Control

Quality control is a process in which the product's quality is compared with standards and corrective actions taken if required. Quality control activities focus on identifying defects in the actual products produced. Eg. Testing.

c.) Test Case

A test case is a unit level document describing the inputs, steps of execution and the expected result of each test condition for every requirement from the BRD. Testers determine whether the application is working correctly or not based on the test case that is being executed. A test case is marked as "Pass" if the application works as expected and is marked as "Fail" if otherwise. Test cases also aide in generating test status metrics.

d.) Test Condition

Test condition is the condition on which the test execution evaluates to pass or fail. Eg of a test condition: Set Password field should accept a mix of Alphanumeric and Special characters on mandatory basis and throw error message otherwise.

e.) Test Script

Test script is the set of instructions performed on the application to verify its functions.

f.) Test Data

Test data is the input data used to test a particular functionality. Eg: Username and password to test a login screen.

g.) Test Bed

Test bed is the environment on which the testing is done and includes the software and hardware set up that is required for testing the application.

One way is shorting the two inputs of the NAND gate and passing the input.

truth table:

A B output

1 1 0

0 0 1

The second way is passing the input to only one input (say A) of the NAND gate. Since the other input  (say B is floating, it is always logic one.

Truth table:

A B output

1 1 0 

0 1 1

No Windows NT is not so, because its not implemented in object oriented language and the data structures reside within one executive component and are not represented as objects and it does not support object oriented capabilities.

Object Repository means not a collection of objects

it's a common repository for all the people (testing, developers) for seeing all the data in single login.

for example QA wants to see 5 testers works then he goes  to each person login and see the data. It's very difficult job. for this we can use Object Repository.

Windows NT uses protection mechanism called rings provides by the process to implement separation between the user mode and kernel mode.

Preemptive scheduling: The preemptive scheduling is prioritized. The highest priority process should always be the process that is currently utilized.

Non-Preemptive scheduling: When a process enters the state of running, the state of that process is not deleted from the scheduler until it finishes its service time.
