How to report Negative Test Cases? Do we need to insert any
new column in the Test Case Document for Negative Test
Cases seperately? I'm very much confused. Please answer this
question!!!

There is nothing exactly like negative test case.
If we test with negative data, then it is called negative
testing. So no need to add new column for this.
For ex : There is a text box. According to the validation
it will take only alphanumeric value according to the SRS
(like 12gh, amit, amit 1234, 11amit). In this case enter
some special characters in that field ($&)@!) to know
whether it is accepting that or not. It is called negative
testing.

Negative testing is something which relates to testing the
System against its requirements.
Every System has its requirements & defintions.Test Cases
are written based on the System requirements. If I
understood your question properly , you are confused
regarding where to write the negative test cases? THis is
good question, generally we tend up writing Test Cases as
per System Requirements and we have the results for the
same. Most of Test Engineers however also test -Ve test
cases during the whole testing process , but never record
them in test-procedure. Yes we should record them seprately,
may be by adding few more test cases as mentioning them as
-ve test cases or as suggestions to system requirements. I
hope this answers your question.

Hi Amit!!Thanks for replying. Even i know about -ve Testing.
But, i thought testers can prepare seperate Test Cases for
Negative Testing also.

Answer / mudaseer
as soon as we get the requirement we start writing test cases both positive and negative test cases.for example requirement
says in a banking application the amount entered should be between 100 and 5000.so we enter values between 100 to 5000 and test whether money is transferring or not.we also test for less than 100 and more than 5000.that is we write negative test case but seperate column is not required.when we write negative test case it should fail but the test case is
passing then we report to the developer.

Negative test case says that try out some different way for
the same requirment but behavior of product should not
change i.e breaking mantality of developer.

I attended ADOBE,bangalore interview in aug 2009.first round written test they ask questions 1)Give 5 reasons why a build can be released with bug 2)Write a bug report for a word processor program which crashes when the contents of 89th column is been sorted in assending order. 3)write test 10 cases for program which has a table with 2 fields of NAME od char type and CLASS of INT type.NAME fields is truncated after 26 charaters and CLASS takes value between 1 to 9 both included. There are 3 possible opearations program can perform a)When a new student joins the class the program adds a new field b)When student leaves the class the field get deleted c)when student gets promoted then program incremts the class by 1 Write 5 test cases for the scenario. 4)write 10 test cases for a program that takes date in dd/mm/yyyy format and prints it out with a increment of 1. for dates (dd) can be given in the range 1<=dd>=30 for months (mm) can be given in the range 1<=mm>=12 for years(yyyy) can be given in the range 1600<=yyyy>=9999 5)Give 5 bugs that could cause a program to crash when it printed the 999999 th pages 1000001th line. Some objective question were there but they were easy. 1st LEVEL WRITTEN TEST FOR QA: 1. 15 min Logical Ability test: Simple syllogism based questions, sequence related questions, etc 2. 30 min Quantitative Aptitude test: Simple Arithmetic, angles, geometry, profit/loss, number system There will be 15 questions for match the column Mark A if column A is GREATER than column B Mark B if column A is LESS than column B Mark C if column A is = column B Mark D if DATA IS INSUFFICIENT There are very simple typical baron based There would be 3 questions on triangles all three were from RS Aggarwal. 17. there was one set of questions on the DI question on 20 -25 were on this graph It was about the total mass of human body is 70,000 gms Muscles 30000 Bones 10000 Blood 5000 Liver There were two pie charts Which tell the percentage of water in the food. And the second one tells the which parts ,,something like that Question 1. what percentage of total mass does liver has Ans 2.4% What is the ratio of bones to total mass All the questions are simple .. 3. 45 min Testing concept test: 20 objective multiple choice qustions like binary form of numbers, virtual memory, lossy compression, while loop, if-then-else, error codes. 1. Winzip is a a. lossy compression b. lossless Compression c.text d image 2. output of 11000100 minus 2 3. Memory leakage is because of a.variable not decraled b. variable not free.. like this 4 options were given 4. Virtual memory concept is related to a. memory leagkage {mospagebreak} 5.Reggretion testing is defined as a. testing the whole application b.testing the different modules in the application 6. If the time is very limited for the testing then what would u test in the application. a. run all the tests b.look for the most used featues in the application c.go to the test plan and run the test based on the priority I would suggest to go thru all the definition like what is regretion testing .what is unit smoke.etc. 1 Test Case Writing questions: 10 test cases for entering 3 values representing sides of a triangle and the program giving output as scalene, isosceles or eqilauteral (10 Marks) 1 Output of a calculator and finding the error in the output, write the defect log for the bug (5 Marks) 1 Ques on weather Dev should do the testing or not. Give 3 reason on favour and 2 against it. (5 Marks) 1 Question diff between priority of a bug and severity of a bug. Give example of one case where priority is high but severity is low and one case where severity is high bur priority is low. 1 Question on a program that calculates P=R/I where R, I are integer inputs and P a floating point output. Write 10 test cases for this - 5 Marks. 2nd round: 1.write a testcase for login page,mobile phone. 2.write a program for fibonacci series. 3.puzzles (-%-+-+--=-%-+--) fill the dashes with nos from 1 to 9.left hand side only odd nos. right hand side only even nos. the nos should not repeat. 4.what is sanity testing,regression testing,explian about ur project etc.. 3re round: 1.explain about ur project.they will ask questions from projects like what is the web server used in ur project,what are all the clinents ur company will have?team size etc... 2. one puzzle. i attended upto this level only...still more rounds will be there....if u goto adobe interview be clear in testing concepts,basic programs and more puzzles.
