Q. 782: The following table shows 6 test procedures (P to U) that must now be entered into a test execution schedule.
| Test Proce-dure ID | Business Priority (1 High 2 Medium 3 Low) |
Dependencies on test procedures | Other dependencies |
| P | 1 | Can not start unless R has completed | |
| Q | 1 | None | Regression testing only |
| R | 2 | None | None |
| S | 2 | None | None |
| T | 3 | None | Delivery of the code for this part of system is running very late |
| U | 3 | None | None |
Business severity is regarded as the most important element in determining the sequence of the test procedures, but other dependencies must also be taken into consideration. Regression testing can only be run once all other tests have completed.
Which of the following represents the MOST effective sequence for the test execution schedule (where the first entry in the sequence is the first procedure to be run, the second entry is the second to be run and so on)?
A. Q, P, S, R, U, T.
B. R, S, U, P, Q, T.
C. R, P, S, U, T, Q.
D. P, Q, R, S, U, T

Test Case 2 covering path A, B, D, E, F, E, F, E, F, E, G

Which of the following statements related to coverage is correct?
A. Statement coverage is 100%; decision coverage is 100%.
B. Statement coverage is less than 100%; decision coverage is 100%.
