Q:

What is the difference in writing the test cases for Integration testing and system testing?

Answer

Integration testing is done at module level when various modules are integrated with each other to form a system or sub-system. Its main purpose is to ensure that interfaces between various modules are working properly; i.e. modules which are working individually are also working correctly together.


System testing is done on a complete, integrated system to evaluate the system’s compliance with its specified requirements. It validates that the system meets its functional and non-functional requirements.


From these definitions, it is clear that the purpose of Integration and purpose of System Testing are different. Therefore, Integration test cases focus more on the interfaces between modules (interface integrity) - the data transfer and their interaction with each other. System test cases focus on testing the product as a whole; i.e. whether the functional, non-functional requirements of the System are met or not. Since System Testing is the final phase before delivery of the product, System test cases should pinpoint configuration related errors along with testing for performance, security, reliability etc.

Q:

In the following code in which order the functions would be called?

a = ( f1 ( 23,14 ) * f2 ( 12/4) ) + f3() ;

Answer

The order may vary from compiler to compiler.


Here the multiplication will happen before the addition , but in which order the functions would be called is undefined. In an arithmetic expression the parentheses tell the compiler which operands go with which operators but do not force the compiler to evaluate everything within the parentheses first.

Q:

Explain Software Testing. Why is it important to conduct the testing of a software?

Answer

Software testing is verifying if a software meets the customer's requirements; if it has high quality; if it is bug free and if it is fit for use.

    printf("Enter a number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num);

    temp=num;
    while(num){
         r=num%10;
         num=num/10;
         sum=sum*10+r;
    }
    if(temp==sum)
         printf("%d is a palindrome",temp);
    else
         printf("%d is not a palindrome",temp);

    return 0;
}
