  Linking tests to use cases If you are using Test Manager to design and run your tests, you can organize your tests under requirement, use case, or user story work items. You can link these work items to use cases in your model. This enables you to quickly trace requirements changes to the tests, and helps you track the progress of each use case.

  To link tests to a use case

  1.

  In Test Manager, create a requirement and base a test suite on it. The requirement that you create is a work item in Team Foundation Server. It might be a User Story, Requirement, or Use Case work item, depending on the process template that your project uses with Team Foundation. For more information, see Track work with Visual Studio ALM and TFS.

  2.

  Link the requirement work item to one or more use cases in your model. In a use case diagram, right-click a use case and then click Link to Work Item.

  3.

  Add to the test suite, test cases that verify the use cases. Reference: Developing Tests from a Model

• Question 54:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM). You are using the Microsoft Solution Framework (MSF) for Agile Software Development process template.

  SharePoint integration and reporting are enabled.

  You want to assess the progress of your team's testing effort.

  To do this, you need to:

  

  Identify gaps in test coverage.

  

  Monitor test progress for each requirement, and.

  

  Identify how many test cases are passing or failing for each requirement. What should you do?

  A. Open the test plan in MTM and look at the test plan status.
  B. From Team Explorer, open the Stories Progress report.
  C. From the team portal, open the Test Plan Progress Excel Report.
  D. From the team portal, open the User Story Test Status Excel Report.
  D. From the team portal, open the User Story Test Status Excel Report.

  ---

  You can use the User Story Test Status report to help determine gaps in test coverage and monitor test progress for each user story. This report indicates how many test cases are passing or failing for each user story. This report is available only when the team creates test plans and starts to run tests by using Microsoft Test Manager.

• Question 55:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) to manage your testing efforts.

  You plan to identify which tests are impacted by changes to the code.

  You need to view a list of recommended tests from the Recommended tests view.

  What should you do? (To answer, move the three appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

  Select and Place:

  

  

  ---

  Note:

  Find the recommended tests to run

  1. Open Testing Center, Track, Recommended Tests.

  2. Select a build at Previous build to compare.

  3. Select the test case and configuration pairs that you want to run again, and choose Reset to active.

  4. You can choose Related work items to see work items associated with all the builds between and including the build in use and the previous build you select. Reference: Finding theTests that are Affected by Code Changes

• Question 56:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  An application that you are responsible for testing has been modified to include a new data entry field. This new field requires testing against a set of known test data.

  You need to modify the manual test case to include input and validation data for the new data entry field to meet these requirements.

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

  A. Create a new test case for each data value to be tested.
  B. Insert a test step insert a parameter into its action column to represent the input data value.
  C. Insert a test step insert a parameter into its Expected Results column to represent the expected result.
  D. Insert the action expected results values to the Parameter Values list pane.
  E. Insert a test step for each new result data value to be tested.
  B. Insert a test step insert a parameter into its action column to represent the input data value.
  C. Insert a test step insert a parameter into its Expected Results column to represent the expected result.
  E. Insert a test step for each new result data value to be tested.

  ---

  B:

  Add parameters to a test case

  Create a parameter by typing a name preceded by "@" in the actions and expected results of your test steps.

  C: Don't forget to include the expected results.

  

  Note:

  * When you write a manual test, you often want to specify that the test should be repeated several times with different test data. For example, if your users can add different quantities of a product to a shopping cart, then you want to check

  that a quantity of 200 works just as well as a quantity of 1.

  To do this, you insert parameters in your test steps. Along with the test steps, you provide a table of parameter values.

• Question 57:

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

  An application that you are testing has gone through a design change. The test case now has five test steps that contain obsolete parameters.

  You need to completely remove these parameters, their data values, and their names, but keep the test steps intact.

  What should you do?

  A. Delete all of the data value iterations for the obsolete parameters by clicking Delete iteration in the Parameter Values pane.
  B. Delete the obsolete parameters from the test case by clicking Rename parameter in the Parameter Values pane and replace the name with a blank replacement value.
  C. Delete the test steps with the old parameters and insert a new test step in their place.
  D. Delete the obsolete parameters from the test case by clicking Delete parameter in the Parameter Values pane and remove the parameter name from the test steps.
  D. Delete the obsolete parameters from the test case by clicking Delete parameter in the Parameter Values pane and remove the parameter name from the test steps.

  ---

  To delete a parameter from your test case, click the parameter in one of the rows in Parameter Values and then click Delete parameter. The Delete parameter dialog box is displayed. You can replace the parameter with a fixed value or just remove it from your steps.

• Question 58:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  Your company no longer supports a particular configuration for the application under test.

  You need to ensure that the test configuration is unavailable as an option in a test plan.

  Which state should you assign to the test configuration?

  A. Closed
  B. Inactive
  C. Disabled
  D. Idle
  B. Inactive

  ---

  When you have completed the tests in a test plan, set its state to Inactive. This prevents more tests from being run in this plan, but still allows the results of existing runs to be viewed. When the results are no longer required you can delete the test plan.

• Question 59:

  You are using Microsoft Test Manager to view user stories and tasks in a new team project.

  You are building a new query that must return both work item types in a single result set.

  The default clause Team Project = @Project is already specified. You need to complete the query.

  What should you do? (To answer, move the three appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

  Select and Place:

  

  

• Question 60:

  Your team is using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).

  You have a manual test case for a web page on which the user is required to enter information into several text fields. The test takes a long time to run. According to previous test results data, there are problems with testers entering data in

  the wrong fields.

  You need to use MTM to eliminate the repeatability issues with the least amount of effort.

  What should you do?

  A. Break the test up into several shorter test cases to isolate the steps that have repeatability problems.
  B. Create an action recording and fast forward to repeat the test steps that have repeatability problems.
  C. Convert the test case to an automated test.
  D. Change the order of the test steps so the least repeatable steps are run first.
  B. Create an action recording and fast forward to repeat the test steps that have repeatability problems.

  ---

  After you create an action recording, you can play it back while you run a test that contains the recording. This helps in circumstances where you might have to run the test multiple times because the action recording automatically plays back the steps. Alternatively, you can fast forward through the test steps until you reach the correct test step to verify a bug.
