Answer: A,C

Question 2

Which of the following is NOT true when following the V-Model lifecycle to organize and plan testing activities?

A : Test execution activities run until exit criteria have been met.

B : Test analysis activities run concurrently with specification of requirements and design.

C : Reporting of all test results occurs when testing is complete for the whole project.

D : System test planning starts when project planning activities commence.

Answer: C

Question 3

You are testing a new product that will turn on the windshield wipers of a car when the sensors detect there is

moisture on the windshield. Depending on the information returned from the sensors, the wipers will be turned

on at one of the following speeds: slow intermittent, medium intermittent, fast intermittent, slow constant,

medium constant, fast constant. Your team has identified the following test condition:

Test Condition 1.1.1 - Verify that the windshield wipers can go from slow constant to fast constant speed when

the amount of moisture increases appropriately.

Your team has defined the following steps for a test case for this test condition:

1. Set the moisture sensor to request slow constant

2. Increase the moisture to set the sensor to request fast constant

3. Verify that the wipers respond with fast constant speed

Given this information, which of the following statements is correct?

A : This test case is traceable to the test condition and provides 100% requirements coverage of the defined test condition.

B : There is not enough information in the test condition to define a test case.

C : This test case is not traceable to the test condition.

D : The test case is traceable to the test condition and provides 100% statement coverage of the defined test condition.

Answer: A

Question 4

You have done a comprehensive risk analysis. You have involved the appropriate people in assessing the risks and determining the likelihood and impact of those risks. You have been testing for three months and have been able to mitigate 75% of the high risk items. You have two weeks left in testing and you now do not expect to be able to complete all the items on the high-risk mitigation list, never mind any from the medium or low-risk lists. What is the most effective action you should take?

A : Use a random selection algorithm to pick tests from the high, medium, and low risk mitigation lists - thereby ensuring that each risk list has some mitigation.

B : Present your risk mitigation progress and project status to the project's stakeholders, and request additional time or assistance in re-prioritizing the remaining high-risk items.

C : Concentrate testing in areas that have already found numerous problems.

D : Retest the highest risk areas to ensure no regressions have occurred.

Answer: B

Question 5

You have investigated different possibilities and selected four of them to present to IT

management. Which of the proposals will you most likely give your highest

recommendations? 3 credits

A : Insourcing of test automation based on an offer from a local company ABC that haspeople who are specialists in system level capture-replay automation tools and they alsodo regular training courses in test automation methods and tools. They can then workclosely with Vicki.

B : Outsourcing of test automation based on an offer from an Asian company,AsiaAutoTest, which has people who are specialists in system level capture-replayautomation tools. They also offer training and besides they offer to run and maintain theregression tests in the future.

C : Internal offer from the development department of XYZ to create the regression packageusing CppUnit as test automation tool. One of the development groups have very goodexperiences in automating unit tests, and they are willing to do training as well.

D : Solution from a tool vendor offering to educate two test team members in the use of theireasy-to-use test automation capture replay tool over the first 3 month and based on thatbuild the regression test suite. In addition to Vicki, Steve is the only one that has timeavailable to be educated.
