Allright. Now that you understand, Let me move this to the category "Interview questions".
You have the right spirit. So, dont worry about the outcome of the interview.
The question although sounds horrendous, could possible make sense in a chaotic project which possibly could be the reason the interviewer posed it to you. Well, if the client told me you have not tested it properly inspite of the Test coverage report, test cases and a multi million lined test documents, i believe the client has no budget to support the test team further. In simple words, i would definitely present the test coverage report and the tracebility matrix and let them know that when we signed off this is what we have baselined and agreed upon.
What kind of report you would generate - should be answered above.
@ All,
These are questions framed by interviewers who really are not sure what kind of candidate they need or who were not sure how to answer the questions back when asked by the clients. Never be demotivated or let your spirits down because you did not answer these kind of questions. Software testing as a whole is like picking stones on a mountain. Nobody is certain how to handle cases until they really are into it. When you are posed such questions it is always good to probe back the interviewer and ask him several questions like,
1. What are you specifically looking at?
2. If the client has to ask that question, is it before sign off or after sign off?
etc..etc..Make sure, you dont lose your cool and keep your head high as always !!!
