Question 1.
What is fault simulation?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we mimic real scenarios in testing.
Question 2.
Define fault coverage in your own words.
Show hintHide hint
What does it tell us about our testing?
3Question 3.
What does fault simulation aim to achieve?
- Replicate real-world faults
- Increase production speed
- Lower costs
Show hintHide hint
Think about the purpose behind simulating faults.
4Question 4.
True or False: Higher fault coverage indicates a less effective test suite.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider what higher coverage tells us.
Question 5.
Design a basic fault simulation for a simple logic circuit. How would you implement and evaluate its fault coverage?
Show hintHide hint
What types of faults would you include in your simulation?
Question 6.
Analyze why automated testing tools might improve fault coverage compared to manual methods.
Show hintHide hint
Think about the speed and consistency of automated versus manual testing.
