1. What is least information required while gathering information for planning an automated test?
browsers and their versions or user actions and expected results or testers working on project or layout specifications or navigation passes

2. What is the scope of variable on the formal parameter list of the called test if the test is called directly from the command line?

referenced/local/static/global/auto

3. Which statement is used to create a modular test tree structure?
for statement/call open_order()/switch case/if then else/do while

4. In which situation you cant use a text checkpoint?
(a). Moving focus of text in an object/window
(b). Comparing two strings
(c). Searching for a picture in a window
(d). Searching for a text in object / window
(e). Reading text from a GUI object or window in your application

5. Which is a benefit or architecting the test scripts in a modular test tree?
(a). GUI check point no longer required
(b). Speed of script execution improves two fold.
(c). Test scripts are easy to mantain and the scripting effort can be easily delegated one module at a time.
(d). Test scripts are no longer interpreted. They are stored as compiled module in libraries
(e). Synchronization points are no longer required

Answers 3,6) A modular test tree consists of a main test that calls other tests, passes parameter values, and controls test execution. Hence call open_order() should be the answer.

Answer 4) c I don't think text check point can be used for searching a picture.

Answer 5) (c). Test scripts are easy to mantain and the scripting effort can be easily delegated one module at a time.

Answer 1) browsers and their versions is requiredl for compatability issues
user actions and expected results are very important
testers working on project..i am not sure about this
layout specifications are just cosmetic issues
navigation passes is required..example: navigation around webpages

So testers working on proj. or layout specs shud be the choice.

Correct me if i am wrong anywhere.
