• Question 41:

  Risks should be constantly reviewed. Given the current situation, which one of the following factors is most likely to lead to a revised view of product risk? 3 credits

  A. The concerns over the user interface may lead to changes to the interface which cannot be implemented by development in time for the second test iteration.

  B. The concerns over the user interface raises the likelihood of a risk in that area and increases the amount of test effort needed for the user interface, thereby limiting the test effort available for other parts of the test management tool.

  C. The delivery of the application without the interface changes may upset the user community.

  D. The method used for test estimation is not accurate enough and hence the money spent on testing exceeded its budget.

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 42:

  Which test management control option is most appropriate to adopt under these circumstances? 2 credits

  A. Introduce mandatory evening and weekend working to retrieve the 3 week slippage.

  B. Reconsider the exit criteria and review the test plan in the context of the current situation.

  C. Advise the user community regarding the reduced scope of requirements and the additional incremental delivery.

  D. Arrange a meeting with the user community representatives to discuss the user interface.

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 43:

  Which of the following would be the TWO most appropriate examples of entry criteria documented in the system integration test plan? 2 credits

  A. The percentage of decision coverage achieved during unit testing.

  B. The availability of the latest version of the capture-replay tool (for testing the interface with the newly developed test management tool).

  C. The sign-off of a performance test software release note (test item transmittal report) by both development and testing showing that system performance meets the specified acceptance criteria.

  D. The percentage of acceptance test procedures scheduled for execution.

  E. The percentage of requirements coverage achieved during system integration test.

  A. The skills and experience of developers to correct the failures.

  B. The standards used for the requirements specification.

  C. The metrics recorded from testing the capture-replay tool.

  D. The number of testers in the company and their grade.

  Correct Answer: C

• Question 45:

  Which of the following would you expect to see in the master test plan? 1 credit

  A. A description of how the test cases are cross-referenced to requirements in the test management tool.

  B. A detailed identification of the resources that will carry out structural testing in the first iteration.

  C. The test approach that will be applied at system integration testing.

  D. A list of the names of the testers who will carry out the performance testing for the final iteration.

  Correct Answer: C

• Question 46:

  Which of the following is a characteristic of good testing in any life cycle model? 1 credit

  A. Analysis and design of tests begins as soon as development is completed.

  B. Some, but not all, development activities have corresponding test activities.

  C. Each test level has test objectives specific to that level.

  D. All document reviews involve the development team.

  Correct Answer: C

• Question 47:

  Which of the following are valid reasons for adopting a different life cycle (from the V model), for increments after the first year? 2 credits

  i. We do not have a clear understanding of the requirements from a customer perspective.

  ii. We see the risk of delivering requested functionality late as being higher than the risk of delivering a lower quality product.

  iii. We do not have a budget for additional regression testing which is needed to ensure that existing functionality is not compromised by future iterations.

  iv.

  The company test strategy does not fit well within the V life cycle model.

  A.

  (i) and (ii)

  B.

  (i) and (iv)

  C.

  (ii) and (iii)

  D.

  (ii) and (iv)

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 48:

  Which of the following would you least expect to form part of the analysis of initial tool costs? 1 credit

  A. Integration with other tools

  B. Learning time required to use the new tool

  C. Tool portability

  D. Evaluation of suitable tools

  Correct Answer: C Scenario 4, V2 "Test Management Tool"

  The project situation after 11 months is:

  -

  The first increment was released one week late but contained sufficient functionality to be declared fit for purpose'. However, there were 20 outstanding incidents deferred to increment two.

  -

  The amount of voluntary overtime worked PV the test team has reduced the second Increment slippage to just 3 weeks.

  -

  There is talk of reducing the scope of requirements. The purpose of this is to first deliver the application with support for manual testing and then to provide a delivery * weeks later to resolve any remaining points and provide support for automated testing (i.e. the link to the capture-replay tool).

  -

  Concerns have been expressed by a section of the user community, that in some places the usability is very poor.

• Question 49:

  Select THREE issues from the options provided that should at least be raised. 1 credit

  A. Has there been sufficient comparison of tools?

  B. What are the problems we are trying to address?

  C. Do we have a set of tool requirements to validate the tool against?

  D. How will the implementation be organized?

  E. Which project will be selected to perform the tool pilot?

  F. Is customized training available?

  G. How will the change process be managed?

  Correct Answer: ABC

• Question 50:

  Which of the following is an example of testing as part of the requirements specification phase? 1 credit

  A. A requirements review meeting

  B. A business analyst eliciting requirements

  C. Performing acceptance tests against requirements

  D. A test report showing requirements coverage

  Correct Answer: A

  Scenario 3 "Tool Selection and Implementation"

  Your company is considering whether or not to purchase a test tool suite from a respectable vendor. Your manager has searched the internet for comparable products but none of them meets his specific requirements. A tool demonstration has been arranged for next week and your team has been invited to attend. The tool suite consists of a test management tool, test execution tool and a requirements management tool. There is the possibility of adding a performance testing tool at a later stage. You have decided to attend the demo but raise some issues beforehand regarding expectations.
