As a tester, as part of a V-model project, you are currently executing some tests aimed at verifying if a mobile app asks the user to grant the proper access permissions during the installation process and after the installation process. The requirements specification states that in both cases the app shall ask the user to grant access permissions only to the camera and photos stored on the device. However, you observe that the app also asks the user to grant access permission to all contacts on the device. Consider the following items: [I]. Test environment [ii]. Expected result [iii]. Actual result. [IV] Test level. [V]. Root cause. Based on only the given information, which of the items listed above, are you able to CORRECTLY specify in a defect report?

Answer options

A: [l] and [IV]

B: [ii] and [III]. Correct answer

C: [ii], [iii] and [v]

D: [ii], [IV] and [V].

Correct Answer:

B. [ii] and [III].

Explanation

When writing a defect report, the tester can specify the expected result and the actual result based on the observation. The expected result is what the requirements specify, and the actual result is what was observed during testing. These elements are crucial for clearly communicating the nature of the defect to developers and other stakeholders. The other items such as test environment, test level, and root cause may not be clear or necessary at this stage of defect reporting.
