What the questions cover
The CTFL v4.0 syllabus has six chapters: fundamentals of testing, testing throughout the software development life cycle, static testing, test analysis and design, managing the test activities, and test tools. The questions cover error, defect and failure; the testing principles; reviews and inspections; confirmation and regression testing; test levels and types; equivalence partitioning, boundary values, decision tables and state transitions; branch coverage; error guessing; testing quadrants; product and project risk; entry and exit criteria; metrics; defect reports; shift left; ATDD; tools; maintenance testing and independence.
A sample question explained
"An input accepts ages 18 to 60. Using two-value boundary value analysis, which values should you test?" The answer is 17, 18, 60 and 61. Two-value BVA tests each boundary and its closest neighbour in the adjacent partition. Three-value BVA, also in the v4.0 syllabus, adds the neighbour on the inside too (19 and 59).
The real CTFL exam has 40 questions. In this 25-question set, 18 correct is 72%; check your exam board for the pass mark (commonly 65%) and time.
