Q1: (8):
A salesman sells locks, stocks and barrels on a monthly basis; the salesperson reports how many of each he or she has sold.
The parts sell for the following:
Locks $45 each
Stocks $30 each
Barrels $25 each
Commission is computed on sales:
10% on sales up to $1000; 15% on the next $800; and 20% on the amount over $1800

Source code for the problem:
Private Sub buggyCommission(locks As Integer, stocks As Integer, barrels As Integer, commission As Currency)
'PROGRAM Commission Faulty Version
Const lock_price As Currency = 45
Const stock_price As Currency = 30
Const barrel_price As Currency = 25
Dim sales As Currency
sales = lock_price * locks + stock_price * stocks + barrel_price * barrels
Node (0)
If (sales > 1800) Then
Node (1)
commission = 0.1 * 1000
commission = commission + 0.15 * 800
commission = commission + 0.2 * (sales - 1200)
ElseIf (sales > 1100) Then
Node (2)
commission = 0.1 * 1000
commission = commission + 0.15 * (sales - 1000)
Else:
Node (3)
commission = 0.1 * sales
End If
Node (4)
End Sub
For the above problem derive the following,
(3 marks) Derive equivalence classes for each of input/output, tabulate them, and clearly state the sub-domains. Use traditional input domain equivalence class(strong robust equivalence class)
(3 marks) Justify your choice of sub-domains.
(2 marks) Identify the logical error in the source code.

Q2: (8) design a decision table or cause effect graph for following requirement
(If you think that the requirements conflict; make suitable assumptions and state them clearly)
(Note: Ensure that the assumptions do not change the problem definition itself)
The word-processor may present portions of text in three different formats: plain text (p), boldface (b), italics (i). The following commands may be applied to each portion of text: make text plain (P), make boldface (B), make italics (I), emphasize (E), super emphasize (SE). Commands are available to dynamically set E to mean either B or I (we denote such commands as E=B and E=I, respectively.) Similarly, SE can be dynamically set to mean either B (command SE=B) or I (command SE=I), or B and I (command SE=B+I.)
Please ensure following points are covered in the decision table or cause effect graphing.
(3 marks)Finding all the cause and marking them
(3 marks)Finding all the effect and marking them to appropriate cause
(2 marks)Reducing the test combinations

(3 marks)What is the formula to find the number of general boundary value test cases. There are 2 numeric variables x and y how may test cases you will generate based on the formula.
Answer:
Formula: _____________
Value : _____________


(2 marks)What is the formula to find the number of combinations that will be covered in decision tree? And how many combinations, we can cover if we have 2 causes with 3 value and 3 cause with 2 values.
Answer:
Formula: _____________
Value : _____________


(3 marks)What is the formula to find the cyclomatic complexity of a program? What will be the cyclomatic complexity of a program which has 21 edges and 16 nodes.
Answer:
Formula: _____________
Value : _____________



Q5: (8) Explain 4 basic Violations of Structured Programming that affects the Cyclomatic complexity as per McCabe’s essential complexity theory.
(each violation carries 2 marks)
