Defect lifecycle in Testing Fundamentals - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to name the initial state of a defect after it is found.

Testing Fundamentals

defect_state = "[1]"  # Initial state when a defect is found

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing 'Closed' because it sounds final, but defects start as 'Open'.

The initial state of a defect after it is found is called Open.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to show the state when a defect is fixed by developers.

Testing Fundamentals

defect_state = "[1]"  # State after defect is fixed

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing 'Closed' too early before retesting.

When developers fix a defect, its state changes to Fixed.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to represent the state when a defect is not accepted.

Testing Fundamentals

defect_state = "[1]"  # State when defect is invalid or not accepted

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Confusing 'Rejected' with 'Closed'.

A defect that is invalid or not accepted is marked as Rejected.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to complete the defect lifecycle transition code.

Testing Fundamentals

if defect_state == "Open":
    defect_state = "[1]"  # Developer fixes the defect
elif defect_state == "[2]":
    defect_state = "Closed"  # Tester closes after retest

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up 'Rejected' and 'Open' states.

After 'Open', the defect moves to 'Fixed' when developers fix it. Then from 'Fixed' (tester retesting), it can move to 'Closed' if retest passes.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to complete the defect lifecycle dictionary comprehension filtering defects by state.

Testing Fundamentals

defects = {id: state for id, state in defect_list.items() if state == "[1]" or state == "[2]" or state == "[3]"}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Including 'Rejected' which is not part of active lifecycle filtering.

This code filters defects that are either 'Open', 'Fixed', or 'Closed' states, which are common active or resolved states in the lifecycle.
