Assume you are managing a test automation project for a mission-critical system. Because vendor provided tools and open source solutions don't meet the needs of this project, you ask your test team to develop a custom automation framework. Which of the following management issues associated to the development of this custom automation framework is least likely to manage?

K2 1 credit

After a selection process you have selected a test management tool that is going be introduced in your organization and used by your test team in a pilot project.

You have already identified the member of your test team who will be the administrator of the tool, since he/she has a significant experience with the administration of test management tools and so he/she is able to make effective and efficient up-front decisions about "how" the tool will be used.

You have also developed a training plan for the other members of your test team.

In collaboration with the administrator of the tool you have also devised standard ways of managing, storing and maintaining the tool and its assets including backup/restore procedures.

You have also analyzed standard formats supported by the tool (CSV, XLS, XML, etc.) to export, import and archive all the information managed by the tool itself (requirements, test case specifications, test plans etc.) for compliance with the most important test management tools, in order to minimize the impacts of migrating this information to a new tool that could replace the existing one in the future.

Which of the following phases in the lifecycle of the new tool has NOT been adequately considered in this description?

Assume that you are the Test Manager for a small banking application development project. You have decided to adopt a risk-based testing strategy and 5 product risks (R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5) have been identified during the quality risk analysis. The following table shows the risk level associated to these product risks (higher numbers mean higher risk):

55 test cases have been designed and implemented to cover all these 5 product risks. The coverage is described in a traceability matrix.

This is the test execution status table, after the after the first week of test execution:

About 56% of the planned test cases have been successfully executed.

Assume that no additional product risks have been identified during the first week of test execution.

Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the residual risks associated with the identified product risks, at the end of the first week of test execution? K3 2 credits

Consider the following test strategies:

1. Consultative test strategy

2. Reactive test strategy

3. Analytical test strategy

4. Process-compliant test strategy

Consider also the following examples of test activities:

1. Prioritize the test cases, based on the results of a FMEA analysis, to ensure early coverage of the most important areas and discovery of the most important defects during test execution

2. Execute usability testing driven by the guidance of a sample of users (external to the test team)

3. Perform exploratory testing sessions throughout the system test phase

4. On an Agile project, execute tests that cover the test conditions identified for each user story of a feature planned for an iteration

Which of the following correctly matches each test strategy with an appropriate example?
