  / A virtual environment is a collection of virtual machines that is managed by Lab Management. You can run manual and automated tests from Microsoft Test Manager using this virtual environment. You can schedule Microsoft Team Foundation Build workflows to build, deploy, and test builds of your application onto virtual environments. Lab Management is integrated with Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) to enable you to efficiently create, store, and run these environments.

  / You manage Lab Management environments for a team project from the Lab and Library tabs of Test Manager.

  

  *

  The Lab tab provides access to the virtual environment and machines that are deployed on the host groups of a team project. A host group is a collection of one or more physical computers that are managed by Lab Management to host the environments. You interact with a host group as if it was a single computer.

  *

  The Library tab provides access to stored environments, virtual machines, and templates that you use to create virtual environments in the team project Lab.

• Question 32:

  You are the QA lead for a development team. You use the Agile process template. Your testers use Microsoft Test Manager to author and run manual test cases.

  The testers use requirement- based test suites to organize the test cases and link them to user stories.

  You need to obtain testing status information, such as the number of tests that are passed, failed, or active. You need this information broken down by user story.

  Which SQL Server Reporting Services report should you view?

  A. Stories Overview
  B. Stories Progress
  C. Test Case Readiness
  D. Test Plan Progress
  A. Stories Overview

  ---

  The Stories Overview report lists all user stories, filtered by area and iteration and in order of importance.

  You can use this report to answer the following questions:

  How much work does each story require?

  How much work has the team completed for each story?

  Are the tests for each story passing?

  How many active bugs does each story have?

  Reference: Stories Overview Report (Agile)

• Question 33:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) to create a test plan for testing an ASP.NET website.

  Your test plan needs to validate a set of critical business functionalities for the current sprint. All business functionalities are documented in the requirements document published to the project portal.

  You need to associate your test plan with the requirements document.

  What should you do?

  A. Add a link to the requirements document in the Links section of the Properties view of the test plan.
  B. Click Copy Link in the Properties view of the test plan to link the requirements document on the project portal to the test plan.
  C. In the Area path drop-down list in the Properties view of the test plan, right-click the test plan area path node relevant to the requirements being tested. Select Add link to associate the requirements document link on the project portal with the area path node.
  D. Click Link next to the Description box in the Properties view of the test plan to link the requirements document on the project portal to the test plan.
  E. Click Link next to the Name box in the Properties view of the test plan to link the requirements document on the project portal to the test plan.
  A. Add a link to the requirements document in the Links section of the Properties view of the test plan.

• Question 34:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM). You are using the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 1.0 process template.

  Your client has added new capabilities to a product in development, which necessitates a major change to existing test cases. The product owner has created a new product backlog item (PBI) and has provided you a link to a document that

  explains these new requirements.

  You need to provide easy access to the requirements document from the test cases.

  Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

  A. From the Test Suite window, add the requirement document by using Add Requirements.
  B. From the Links tab, link the requirements document to the PBI.
  C. From the Test Plan Manager, add a link to the PBI.
  D. For each test case, use the Tested Backlog Items tab to add a link to the PBI.
  A. From the Test Suite window, add the requirement document by using Add Requirements.
  D. For each test case, use the Tested Backlog Items tab to add a link to the PBI.

  A: Add requirements to a test plan

  Typically, you create a test plan for each iteration and area of your team project. Near the start of the iteration, you add the product backlog items, user stories or requirements of that iteration to the test plan.

  1.

  In Microsoft Test Manager, choose Testing Center, Plan, Contents.

  2.

  Choose Add Requirements.

  3.

  In Add existing requirements, edit the query to find the requirements you want.

  For example, you might add a clause to select the current Iteration Path. Or, you might choose requirements that are not already linked to test cases.

  4.

  Choose Run to run the query and display requirements.

  5.

  Select the requirements you want to add.

  

  A:

  D: The Tested Backlog Items tab lists all the PBIs and bugs in a test case. By linking PBIs and bugs to test cases, the team can track the progress made in testing each item.

  

  Reference: Scrum process template work item types and workflow Creating Tests for Product Backlog Items, User Stories, or Requirements

• Question 35:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  You need to assign test cases to testers so they will be able to find the tests they need to run.

  What should you do?

  A. Click Assign to designate the tester for each test case, then click Filter when you run the test.
  B. In the Assigned to field for each test case, select the tester, then click Filter when you run the test.
  C. For each test case, select the tester in the Assigned to field and use a work item query to filter on assigned test cases.
  D. Create a test plan for each tester.
  A. Click Assign to designate the tester for each test case, then click Filter when you run the test.

  ---

  Assign to Tester

  If we have many test cases and many testers, it can be effective for the test manager to assign test cases to the designated tester.

  By default, tests are assigned to be run by the user that is assigned to the test case. Use the following procedure and illustration to assign each pairing of a test with a configuration if you want a tester who is not assigned to the test case to

  run this particular pairing. This does not change the user who is assigned to the test case.

  

• Question 36:

  You plan to conduct a test for a multi-tier ASP.NET website by using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM). You have created a test plan named Release 1.0. Under the Release 1.0 test plan, the test run should:

  

  Collect information about all machines on which the test is run, and

  

  Collect each UI action performed within the Client role.

  You need to configure the Release 1.0 test plan to meet these requirements.

  What should you do?

  A. Create new test settings for Manual Tests by using the client and server roles. Select the System information and Action log diagnostic data adapters.
  B. Create new test settings for Automated Tests on the local machine. Select the IntelliTrace and Action Log diagnostic data adapters.
  C. Create new test settings for Automated Tests by using the client and server roles. Select the ASP.NET profiler and Code coverage diagnostic data adapters.
  D. Create new test settings for Manual Tests on the local computer. Select the System information and Code coverage diagnostic data adapters.
  A. Create new test settings for Manual Tests by using the client and server roles. Select the System information and Action log diagnostic data adapters.

  *

  System information : A test setting can be set up to include the system information about the machine that the test is run on. The system information is specified in the test results by using a test setting.

  *

  Action log diagnostic

  *

  (incorrect): Code coverage: To determine what proportion of your project's code is actually being tested by coded tests such as unit tests, you can use the code coverage feature of Visual Studio. To guard effectively against bugs, your tests

  should exercise or 'cover' a large proportion of your code.

  Code coverage analysis can be applied to both managed (CLI) and unmanaged (native) code.

  

  Reference: Specifying Test Settings for Visual Studio Tests

• Question 37:

  You are a test developer using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  You are editing a test suite in a plan for a product.

  You need to change the default configuration setting for the test suite.

  What should you do?

  A. For the selected test suite, assign a new configuration by choosing select the configuration for all tests.
  B. Change the state on the configuration to Active with add description as Default.
  C. Select the required configuration by choosing Select Test Configurations for all tests for the plan that needs editing.
  D. Check the Assign to new test plans check box in the Test Configuration pane.
  C. Select the required configuration by choosing Select Test Configurations for all tests for the plan that needs editing.

  ---

  Update Configurations for Specific Test Cases You can update the default assignments of test configurations to test cases in each suite. You can remove pairings that you do not want to test and add other combinations. This gives you the flexibility to specify in your plan only those pairings of configurations and test cases that you really want to test as shown in the following illustration.

  * The band for active Bugs is becoming wider.

  Questions to ask:

  Are team members being reallocated to other, non-priority tasks? Are other issues blocking the team's ability to resolve and fix Bugs?

  Reference: Bugs dashboard

• Question 40:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  You plan to organize the Priority 1 test cases into a test suite.

  You need to create a test suite only for Priority 1 test cases.

  Which type of test suite should you create?

  A. query-based
  B. priority-based
  C. exploratory
  D. requirements-based
  A. query-based

  ---

  You might want to search for all the test cases in your team project using Microsoft Test Manager, or you might want to search for only specific test cases. You can customize a query to search for only the test cases you want to see. For

  example, you can create a query to search for just the priority 1 test cases you own.

  You can save this query to use later.
