Microsoft 70-498 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 91:

  You develop an n-tier application that includes the following components:

  

  Database

  

  Data access layer

  Presentation layer (website)

  The database has approximately 100 tables and stores large amounts of data.

  You need to select a unit testing strategy to verify the business logic layer.

  What should you do?

  B. Create a mock data access layer. Write tests against the mock data access layer.
  C. Create a mock business logic layer and a test database. Configure the data access layer to target the test database. Write tests against the business logic layer.
  D. Create a test database from a backup of the live database. Configure the data access layer to target the test database. Write tests against the data access layer.

• Question 92:

  You manage a highly complex project by using Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 for application lifecycle management (ALM). The project has the following characteristics:

  1.

  The development team is multi-disciplined, executes all work that is required, and has a high degree of autonomy.

  2.

  A key stakeholder acts as product owner to create, prioritize, and manage dynamic product requirements.

  3.

  You plan and complete requirements in three week cycles.

  4.

  You do not need to keep track of an audit trail.

  5.

  You need to select a development process.

  What are two possible development processes you could select to achieve this goal? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose two.)

  A. MSF for CMMI Process Improvement 6.0
  B. Microsoft Waterfall 6.0
  C. Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0
  D. Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) Process Template
  E. Microsoft Kanban 1.0
  C. Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0
  E. Microsoft Kanban 1.0

  ---

  You can choose based on the following considerations:

  Choose Visual Studio Scrum 2.0 or later version if your team uses Scrum, manages bugs along with product backlog items during sprint planning, and wants work items and processes designed to support Scrum.

  Choose MSF for Agile Software Development 6.0 or later version if your team uses Agile methods, and you resolve work items before closing them. Choose MSF for CMMI Process Improvement 6.0 or later version if your team requires a

  rigorous audit trail, and follows a formal process for change management. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/ms400752.aspx

  The SDL has been shown to reduce the number of vulnerabilities in shipping software by more than 50 percent. However, from an Agile viewpoint, the SDL is heavyweight because it was designed primarily to help secure very large products,

  such as Windows and Microsoft Office, both of which have long development cycles. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee790621.aspx

• Question 93:

  Your client is utilizing the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0 process template.

  Your client provides a set of acceptance tests for Product Backlog Items (PBI). The PBI work has been committed to in the upcoming sprint.

  You need to ensure that the status of the acceptance tests can be reported from TFS.

  What should you do?

  A. Store the acceptance test as rows in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and attach the spreadsheet to the PBI work item.
  B. Store the acceptance test as rows in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Save the spreadsheet in the associated project portal site and link it to the PBI work items.
  C. Create Test case work items. Link the test cases to the PBI work items by using a Tests link type.
  D. Create Test case work items. Link the PBJ work items by using a Parent link type to the test cases.
  C. Create Test case work items. Link the test cases to the PBI work items by using a Tests link type.

• Question 94:

  Your team is setting up a test lab for the test team. Hyper-V is not the company virtualization standard. You are in a planning meeting representing the development team.

  The information technology (IT) group indicates that they are reluctant to purchase a Hyper-V server and have limited resources available for maintaining test environments.

  You need to suggest a solution for managing pre-production environments.

  What should you do?

  A. Explain that Standard Environments in Lab Management can be used, but that IT will still have to provision test VMs.
  B. Explain that TFS Lab Management is a solution, but requires Hyper-V.
  C. Explain that Standard Environments in Lab Management is a solution, but requires physical machines.
  D. Explain that Lab Management is a solution and that IT will not need to be involved since Lab Management can be used to self provision test VMs.
  A. Explain that Standard Environments in Lab Management can be used, but that IT will still have to provision test VMs.

  Standard Environments: Standard environments can contain a mix of virtual and physical machines. You can also add virtual machines to a standard environment that are managed by third-party virtualization frameworks. In addition, standard environments do not require additional server resources such as an SCVMM server. SCVMM environments: SCVMM environments can only contain virtual machines that are managed by SCVMM (System Center Virtual Machine Manager), so the virtual machines in SCVMM environments can only run on the Hyper-V virtualization framework. However, SCVMM environments provide the following automation and management features that are not available in standard environments. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/dd997438.aspx

• Question 95:

  Your development team uses the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0 process template. You are the scrum master.

  The product owner has created product backlog items and assigned them to a release.

  You need to work with the development team to estimate when the release will be completed.

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

  A. Review the sprint backlog.
  B. Review the product backlog with the Forecast option set to on to determine if the release can be completed based on the team's velocity.
  C. Have the team create tasks for each item in the product backlog and assign hour estimates to the task.
  D. Review the sprint burndown chart.
  E. Set each team member's per day capacity.
  F. Establish a sprint duration and a sprint velocity. Create enough sprints to complete the release.
  G. Estimate effort for each item in the product backlog.
  B. Review the product backlog with the Forecast option set to on to determine if the release can be completed based on the team's velocity.
  F. Establish a sprint duration and a sprint velocity. Create enough sprints to complete the release.
  G. Estimate effort for each item in the product backlog.

  By using the forecasting tool in Web Access, you can plan the number of Sprints it will take to complete a set of work. The forecasting tool is available only in the Product Backlog, not any of the Sprint Backlogs. Prior to being able to use the forecasting tool, your Product Backlog must have PBI and Bug work items already created with the effort specified.

  You can turn on forecasting by clicking the Off hyperlink next to Forecast on the right side of the backlog page. The first time you do this, Web Access prompts you for the Velocity. Using your Development Team's Velocity, Web Access will add a Forecast column and horizontal lines to the Product Backlog. In the Forecast column, it will display the Sprint that it predicts the PBI or Bug work item will be developed in. Professional Scrum Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 p.165
