For questions 10 and 11 refer to the data given below:
Void fndrep (char * p, char * oldarr, char * newarr)
{
for (int j = 0; j<5; j ++)
for (int k = 0; k<3; k++)
if (p[j] == oldarr[k]; p[j] = newarr
[k];
}

Array p contains certain character string, which is to be found and replaced by using the procedure given above. Oldarr contains the characters to be replaced while array newarr

contains their respective replacement characters. Length of the array p is fixed and it contains five characters while arrays oldarr and newarr contains three characters each. However the

procedure is flawed.

The above procedure is to be tested with the following test cases given below:

I. oldarr = abc, newarr = dab
II. oldarr = cde, newarr = bcd
III. oldarr = bca, newarr = cda
IV. oldarr = abc, newarr = bac

(10) If the tester carries out the testing of the program on all input strings of five characters a, b, c, d and e with duplicates allowed using these test cases, the number of test cases

that will be able to capture the flaw is

(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 3
(D) All 4

(11) Out of the four test cases, the test cases that will be successful in exposing the flaw if array p is made to hold the string abcde is

(B) II and IV
(C) III and IV
(D) I and III

(12) Match the following:

List I List II

a. Requirement capture p. Module development and integration
b. Design q. Domain analysis
c. Implementation r. Structural and behavioral modeling
d. Maintenance s. Performance tuning

(A) a – q, b – r, c – p, d - s
(B) a – s, b – r, c – p, d - p
(C) a – q, b – s, c – p, d - r
(D) a – r, b – p, c – q, d - s

(13) Begin
if (p = q)
{
S1;
Exit;
3
}
else if(r = s)
{
S2
}
else
{
S3;
Exit;
3
}
S4;
end

Let T1, T2, T3 and T4 be the test cases expressed in terms of the properties satisfied by the values of variables p, q, r and s whose exact values are not given. S1, S2, S3 and S4 are the

statements.

T1: p = q = r = s
T2: p ≠ q ≠ r ≠ s
T3: p = q and r != s
T4: p != q and r = s

The test cases that ensures coverage of the statements S1, S2, S3 and S4 is

(A) T1, T2 and T4
(B) T3 and T4
(C) T1 and T4
(D) T2 and T3
