Which amongst the following statements are not true for Quality Assurance ?
(i) Quality Assurance aims to prevent the defects
(ii) Quality Assurance is a reactive measure
(iii) Quality Assurance manages the quality validation
(iv) Quality Assurance covers full development life cycle
Answer: D
Statements (ii) and (iii) are not true, so the answer is (ii) and (iii).
Quality assurance is process-oriented and proactive: it aims to prevent defects (i) by defining and improving the processes used across the whole development life cycle (iv). Both of those statements are true.
Statement (ii) is false because QA is preventive, not reactive; finding defects after the product is built is the reactive work of quality control. Statement (iii) is also false: validating the quality of the product, through testing and inspection, is quality control's job, while QA manages the process. Options containing (i) or (iv) are therefore wrong.
