Chapter 5.4, Problem 20STE
Program Plan Intro
Testing:
- It denotes an activity to check whether actual results match expected results.
- It guarantees that software system is defect free.
- It involves execution of a software component for evaluating one or more interest properties.
- It identifies errors, gaps or requirements that are omitted related to actual requirements.
- It could be performed manually or using automated tools.
- It can be classified as white or black box testing.
- The manual testing would include testing of software short of any tool.
- The tester behaves as an end-user.
- It tests software for identifying any behavior that is unexpected.
- The different stages include unit, integration, system as well as user acceptance testing.
- The automation testing uses software to test product.
- It includes automation for a manual process.
- The test scenarios are been re-run that are been performed manually.
- It is used for testing application from performance, load in addition to stress view point.
Driver
- The driver program contains program’s main function.
- It is responsible for launching program operations.
- It is responsible for converting user program into physical execution unit termed as task.
- Each function must be designed, tested and coded as a discrete unit from rest of program.
- It denotes a testing program for functions or statement that is been written in code.
- It tests the functionality usually for debugging as well as code verification.
Given addTax function:
//Define method addTax
void addTax(double taxRate, double& cost)
{
//Compute cost
cost = cost + ( taxRate/100.0 ) * cost;
}
Explanation:
- The method “addTax()” takes input values as arguments.
- It computes the cost by using input values entered by user.
- The result of operation is been displayed.

How does this differ from the usual use of a value parameter? When an array is passed as a parameter, it is like passed by reference. A new array will be created in the called function and any changes to the new array will pass back to the original array. When an array is passed as a parameter, it is passed by value. So any changes to the parameter do not affect the actual argument. When an array is passed as a parameter, changes to the array affect the actual argument. This is because the parameter is treated as a pointer that points to the first component of the array. This is different from a value parameter (where changes to the parameter do not affect the actual argument). When an array is passed as a value, changes to the array affect the actual argument. This is because the parameter is treated as a pointer that points to the first component of the array. This is different from a parameter (where changes to the parameter do not…arrow_forward
