Microsoft 70-498 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 21:

  You are developing a web application. Currently, the test team tests the website on a Hyper-V virtual machine (VM) named WebTest. The majority of the test cases explicitly reference WebTest.

  The test team wants to divide into two independent teams to speed testing, and has indicated that they will likely create a third test teamsoon.

  You need to define a strategy that provides separate test environments for each team with as little impact on the tests as possible.

  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.)

  Note:

  * A virtual machine template is a library resource consisting of a guest operating system profile, a hardware profile, and one or more virtual hard disks (VHDs), which can be used to create a new virtual machine. Self-service users must use assigned templates to create their virtual machines.

• Question 22:

  You are developing an application by using a team of developers and a team of testers. You have an automated nightly build.

  Currently, the testers take too long to test and the developers are closing a large number of bugs as "unable to reproduce."

  You need to improve the test cycle time.

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

  Choose two.)

  A. Enable code analysis.
  B. Instruct the testers to use diagnostic data collection in their test environment.
  C. Instruct the testers to test only every other build.
  D. Instruct the testers to use action recordings and playback during manual testing.
  E. Assign an extra day for testing at the end of the iteration.
  B. Instruct the testers to use diagnostic data collection in their test environment.
  D. Instruct the testers to use action recordings and playback during manual testing.

• Question 23:

  You have a list of tasks entered into Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012. Each task has an estimated effort and assigned to a team member.

  You have limited resources available. Due to external requirements, the start date and end date of the current iteration are fixed. Several of the tasks have dependencies on one another.

  You need to identify a critical path.

  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.)

• Question 24:

  Your development team uses Scrum as its process framework. You need to identify key metrics for measuring the effectiveness of any process changes. Which three key metrics should you measure? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose three.)

  A. Number of story points delivered during the sprint
  B. Number of tasks added to the sprint after the sprint starts
  C. Number of bugs reported by testers
  D. Number of classes in the code-base
  E. Number of items added to the Product Backlog
  F. Number of manual test cases created
  A. Number of story points delivered during the sprint
  B. Number of tasks added to the sprint after the sprint starts
  C. Number of bugs reported by testers

• Question 25:

  You are an automation engineer for your company. Your Scrum team is defining processes for how your team should deliver products for product owner approval.

  Your development team is deciding what the definition of done should be.

  You need to contribute a test suite that will confirm each user story's level of done.

  Which test should you perform?

  A. Integration
  B. Security
  C. Performance
  D. System
  D. System

• Question 26:

  You are developing a new application that contains complicated validation and transformation logic on data pulled from three separate source systems.

  You need to get feedback from your stakeholders to verify that your application meets their requirements before any other development tasks have been started. You also need to ensure that this application sub-system is correct before any

  other dependent module can be developed.

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

• Question 27:

  You are the lead developer and architect of a development team that develops line of business (LOB) applications.

  You need to define an architectural design process for the LOB applications.

  Which three architectural goals and principles should you adopt? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose three.)

  A. Build to change, instead of building to last.
  B. Model to analyze and reduce risk.
  C. Consider the team velocity.
  D. Use models and visualizations as a communication and collaboration tool.
  E. Baseline the architecture to ensure consistency and minimize deviation.
  A. Build to change, instead of building to last.
  B. Model to analyze and reduce risk.
  D. Use models and visualizations as a communication and collaboration tool.

  Consider the following key principles when designing your architecture:

  Build to change instead of building to last. Consider how the application may need to change over time to address new requirements and challenges, and build in the flexibility to support this. Model to analyze and reduce risk. Use design tools, modeling systems such as Unified Modeling Language (UML), and visualizations where appropriate to help you capture requirements and architectural and design decisions, and to analyze their impact. However, do not formalize the model to the extent that it suppresses the capability to iterate and adapt the design easily. Use models and visualizations as a communication and collaboration tool. Efficient communication of the design, the decisions you make, and ongoing changes to the design, is critical to good architecture. Use models, views, and other visualizations of the architecture to communicate and share your design efficiently with all the stakeholders, and to enable rapid communication of changes to the design. Identify key engineering decisions. Use the information in this guide to understand the key engineering decisions and the areas where mistakes are most often made. Invest in getting these key decisions right the first time so that the design is more flexible and less likely to be broken by changes. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en- us/library/ee658098.aspx

  You are planning a large product development project that will involve more than 15 team members. You want to divide the team members into multiple scrum teams.

  You need to ensure that the new teams minimize collisions and maximize release flexibility. What should you do?

  A. Create teams that will target different features.
  B. Create teams based on team members' positions.
  C. Create teams based on technology type.
  D. Create teams by team members' experience with the Scrum process framework.
  A. Create teams that will target different features.

• Question 29:

  You manage several developers who are working on multiple applications.

  A business analyst requests an audit trail of work item changes for all prospective releases.

  You need to implement a strategy to provide the audit trail.

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

  A. Enable a check-in policy that requires a successful build prior to check-in.
  B. Enable a check-in policy that requires a work item be associated with the check-in.
  C. Enable static code analysis during the automated build.
  D. Require developers to update the comments field of their tasks with details of any code changes for their tasks.
