Sample Practice Questions
Question 1: Which of the following is a primary characteristic of a Hybrid Mobile Application that distinguishes it from a purely Native application during the testing process?
A. It is installed via an app store but renders content using a web view.
B. It requires no internet connection to function at all.
C. It is written entirely in machine code for a specific processor.
D. It cannot access any device hardware like the camera or GPS.
E. It only runs on desktop browsers and not on mobile devices.
F. It is identical to a responsive website viewed in Chrome.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
A (Correct): Hybrid apps are "wrapped" in a native container, allowing them to be distributed through stores while using web technologies (HTML/CSS/JS) inside a web view.
B (Incorrect): Many hybrid apps require connectivity to load web-based content.
C (Incorrect): Native apps, not hybrid apps, are built using platform-specific languages like Swift or Kotlin.
D (Incorrect): Hybrid apps can access hardware through plugins or bridges.
E (Incorrect): This contradicts the definition of a mobile application.
F (Incorrect): While it uses web tech, its distribution and container make it different from a standard responsive site.
Question 2: During Security Testing (SAST), which of the following risks is most commonly identified in the static source code of a mobile application?
A. High battery consumption during GPS usage.
B. Hardcoded API keys or sensitive credentials in the code.
C. Slow server response times under heavy user load.
D. Poor color contrast in the user interface.
E. Screen flickering during orientation changes.
F. Physical device overheating issues.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B (Correct): Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes source code without executing it, making it ideal for finding hardcoded secrets.
A (Incorrect): This is a performance/resource issue found during dynamic testing.
C (Incorrect): This is a performance/load testing concern.
D (Incorrect): This falls under usability or accessibility testing.
E (Incorrect): This is a functional/UI bug found during execution.
F (Incorrect): This is a hardware-related performance issue.
Question 3: In the context of Mobile Performance Testing, what does "Network Latency" specifically impact from a user's perspective?
A. The physical weight of the mobile device.
B. The time it takes for data to travel between the app and the server.
C. The number of megapixels in the device camera.
D. The version of the operating system installed.
E. The storage capacity of the SD card.
F. The price of the data plan.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B (Correct): Latency is the delay in communication, which is a critical performance metric in mobile testing due to varying network conditions (3G, 4G, 5G).
A (Incorrect): This is a physical hardware attribute.
C (Incorrect): This is a camera hardware specification.
D (Incorrect): This is a software environment detail, not a performance metric.
E (Incorrect): This relates to device storage, not network performance.
F (Incorrect): This is a financial/billing detail unrelated to technical testing.
