what is cvs in testing..

Answer / gguueesstt

CVS is a version control system. Using it, you can record
the history of your source files.

For example, bugs sometimes creep in when software is
modified, and you might not detect the bug until a long
time after you make the modification. With CVS, you can
easily retrieve old versions to see exactly which change
caused the bug. This can sometimes be a big help.

You could of course save every version of every file you
have ever created. This would however waste an enormous
amount of disk space. CVS stores all the versions of a file
in a single file in a clever way that only stores the
differences between versions.

A server configuration is controlled from a single web page with multiple options: ● 20 drop-down menus, with 3-4 options each. ● 5 check-boxes. ● 1 multi-select menu, with 5 options. ● 1 template selection, with 6 options: A, B, C, D, E, F. ○ When options A, B, C, D are selected, all options (#1-#3) above are available. ○ When options E, F are selected, only 10 out of 20 drop-down menus have an effect. ● Besides item #4, developers input is that all options are independent, I.e., not impacting each other. What is the required number of test configurations required in order to test the server configuration and release in good quality: a) Assuming first release. b) Assuming regression tests for release with new features not impacted by the above options. Test configuration is a complete set of options that were selected to be tested in one complete server configuration scenario. I.e, a test configuration is set of 17 or 27 specific options tested together.
