Manual Testing Interview Questions and Answers
Question - 111 : - What is the difference between bug leakage and bug release?
Answer - 111 : -
Bug leakage is when the tested software is released into the market and the end-user finds bugs in it. These include the bugs that got missed by the testing team during the testing phase.
Whereas, bug release is when a specific version of the software is released in the market with some known bugs which are intended to get fixed in the later versions. These types of issues are of low priority and are mentioned in the release notes while sharing with the end-users.
Question - 112 : - What is the difference between smoke and sanity testing?
Answer - 112 : -
The difference between smoke and sanity testing is-
- Smoke testing is a type of testing in which all major functionalities of the application are tested before carrying out exhaustive testing. Whereas, sanity testing is a subset of regression testing which is carried out when there is some minor fix in the application in a new build.
- In smoke testing, shallow-wide testing is carried out while in Sanity, narrow-deep testing (for a particular functionality) is done.
- The smoke tests are usually documented or are automated. Whereas, the sanity tests are generally not documented or unscripted.
Answer - 113 : -
Black-box testing is a type of testing in which the internal architecture of the code is not required for testing. It is usually applicable for system and acceptance testing.
Whereas white-box testing requires internal design and implementation knowledge of the application being tested. It is usually applicable for Unit and Integration testing.
Question - 114 : - What is the difference between regression and retesting?
Answer - 114 : - Regression testing involves testing the application to verify that a new code change doesn’t affect the other parts of the application. Whereas, in retesting, we verify if the fixed issue is resolved or not.
Question - 115 : - What is risk analysis?
Answer - 115 : - Risk analysis is the analysis of the risk identified and assigning an appropriate risk level to the defect based on its impact over the application.
