• A. Approval of detailed design specifications by inspections done by the test team before day 7, when the daily builds begin
• B. Identification of external web services and enforcement of service level agreements (SLAs) with service provider done by project management and test management
• C. Integration test level plan defined by test manager before each development cycle and handed over to developers on day 10
• D. Metrics suite for unit testing defined by and reported to test management at day 7
• E. Automated per5formance testing of user stories with priority >= High done by testers during system test with test execution starting on day 10

Answer explanation

a) Is not correct. TDD starts with unit test case design; in agile processes, normally there are no detailed design specifications

b) Is correct. 30% of performance issues are reported in relationship to web services. These (or some of them) may be due to undefined SLA

c) Is not correct. There is no integration test level

d) Is not correct. Unit testing is under the hood of development

e) Is correct. Performance. Tests must be conducted; system not stable before day 10

• A. Test design and test execution is outsourced

• B. Test basis is changing frequently

• C. Domain experts are available for consultation during test design

• D. Test basis is of low quality

• E. Test conditions are used for management milestone presentations

Answer explanation

a) Is correct. Questions at test design to refine coarse grained test conditions would be expensive to answer

b) Is not correct. Detailed test conditions would be hard to maintain (Syllabus)

c) Is not correct. Questions at test design to refine coarse grained test conditions could be answered by domain experts

d) Is correct. Specifying detailed test conditions could act in place of a poor test basis and contribute to defect prevention

e) Is not correct. Management does not general require that level of detail

• A. Click rapidly on company enrollment button to see what happens

• B. Click on URL for our home page, check that home page displays

• C. Click on company enrollment button; verify that you go to that company’s enrollment page

• D.Click on company enrollment button; verify that you go to our home page

Answer explanation

a) Is not correct. Might cover this risk item, but it is a negative test and does not contain an expected result; it’s a good exploratory negative test for this risk item, though

b) Is not correct. Is a perfectly good positive logical test but does not cover the risk item

c) Is correct. Has the input to occur, the correct expected result per the scenario, and relates to the risk item

d) Is not correct. Has the wrong expected result and so it Is not correct

• A. This risk item should be assessed as a very high impact level risk

• B. The test cases associated with this risk item must be run first in the test execution period

• C. The test cases associated with this risk item must be run toward the middle of the test execution period

• D. A large number of test cases should be associated with this risk item, based on impact

Answer explanation

a) Is correct. This risk relates to the core functionality of the application

b) Is not correct. Tests with very high impact and higher likelihood should run before this test c) Is not correct. Is not certainly true because we do not know how this risk item relates to other risk items

d) Is not correct. Is not certainly true because we do not know how effort allocation is determined based on combined impact and likelihood

• A. The test sequencing is certainly incorrect since test 02.010 is higher risk than 02.019

• B. If the test plan calls for running at least one test for each requirement as early as possible, the test sequencing might be correct

• C. The test manager should stop test execution while evaluating all problems that exist with test sequencing

• D. Running test 02.019 was a waste of time, because it did not find any defects

• E. The test team might not be following the test strategy since test 02.010 is higher risk than 02.019

Answer explanation

a) Is not correct. The situation in option B, or perhaps simply blockage of tests, can explain running tests out of risk order

b) Is correct. 02.019 covers a different requirement than 02.010

c) Is not correct. While evaluating problems with test sequencing makes sense, there is no need to stop running tests while doing so

d) Is not correct. Finding defects is not the only objective of testing

e) Is correct. Higher-risk tests precede lower-risk tests in risk-based testing strategies

Câu 7: Which of the following metrics are best suited to be included in a test progress report for unit test execution?

Select TWO options.

• A. Defect detection percentage (DDP) of unit test

• Planned versus actual defects reported

• Unit test time vs. integration test time

• Number of test conditions identified

• Planned versus actual coverage achieved

Answer explanation

a) Is not correct. Could not be measured timely

b) Is correct. From syllabus

c) Is not correct. Could not be measured timely

d) Is not correct. Related to test analysis progress

e) Is correct. From syllabus

Câu 8: Which of the following is an accurate summary of the test closure activity “test completion check”?

Select ONE option.

• A. Test completion check ensures that all test work is concluded as planned

• B. Test completion check ensures that all important lessons learned are documented

• C. Test completion check ensures that all test work products are stored in the configuration management system

• D. Test completion check ensures that plans are established to ensure that good practices can be repeated

Answer explanation

a) Is correct. Per syllabus section 1.3

b) Is not correct

c) Is not correct

d) Is not correct

• A. Evaluating whether significant problems have been reported by users in button customization

• B. Determining the level of detail required for enrollment, customization, and point management test cases

• C. Identifying enrollment problems that are affecting companies or their customers

• D. Delivering the known defects and failed tests to the system support team

• E. Measuring the coverage of the enrollment requirements and reporting that to project and business stakeholders

Answer explanation

a) Is correct. We want to analyze defect information to evaluate whether the quality risk analysis was correct in a retrospective

b) Is not correct. This is supposed to happen during implementation

c) Is correct. Enrollment is a key requirement area, and test retrospectives should check whether defects were missed in such areas under a requirements-based test strategy

d) Is not correct. While this is part of test closure, it is not part of the retrospective

e) Is not correct. This is part of test control

Answer explanation

a) Is not correct. Married customers are not current customers (unless they are cheating on their spouse) and thus should not really care if invoicing is working correctly

b) Is not correct. Government employees would not really care about how well the matching works, except for those employees who are users of the application (which has nothing to do with being an employee of a government agency)

c) Is not correct. The users really do not have much concern about whether the company is paying the proper taxes, as long as the user is being charged properly

d) Is correct. Users care about receiving the service they are paying for, at the agreed price; managers and stakeholders must care about all three types of tests, so that they have satisfied customers, a profitable company, and legal compliance; government agents care about compliance with the rules; and, married couples are not current stakeholders
