  • Analyzing the traceability between the test basis, the test objects and the test cases will help in selecting test data to achieve the assumed coverage of the test object

Question 46

Question
Which of the following BEST explains a benefit of independence of testing?
Answer
  • The use of an independent test team allows project management to assign responsibility for the quality of the final deliverable to the test team
  • If a test team external to the organization can be afforded, then there are distinct benefits in terms of this external team not being so easily swayed by the delivery concerns of project management and the need to meet strict delivery deadlines
  • An independent test team can work separately from the developers, need not be distracted with project requirement changes, and can restrict communication with the developers to defect reporting through the defect management system
  • When specifications contain ambiguities and inconsistencies, assumptions are made on their interpretation, and an independent tester can be useful in questioning those assumptions and the interpretation made by the developer

You created a set of test cases in which a number of random orders were made, the processing time measured, and the test results were checked against the requirements. What test type did you perform?
Answer
  • Functional, because the test cases cover the user’s business requirement for the system
  • Non-functional, because the measure the system’s performance
  • Functional, because the test cases interact with the user interface
  • Structural, because we need to know the internal structure of the program to measure the order processing time

Answer
  • The test pyramid emphasizes having a larger number of tests at the lower test levels
  • The closer to the top of the pyramid, the more formal your test automation should be

Question 62

Question
During risk analysis the team considered the following risk: “The system allows too high a discount for a customer”. The team estimated the risk impact to be very high. What can one say about the risk likelihood?
Answer
  • It is also very high. High risk impact always implies high risk likelihood
  • It is very low. High risk impact always implies low risk likelihood
  • One cannot say anything about risk likelihood. Risk impact and risk likelihood are independent.

  • ii, v are project risks; i, iii, iv are not project risks

Question 64

Question
Which of the following is an example of how product risk analysis influences thoroughness and scope of testing?
Answer
  • The test manager monitors and reports the level of all known risks on a daily basis so the stakeholders can make an informed decision on the release date
  • One of the identified risks was "Lack of support of open-source databases", so the team decided to integrate the system with an open-source database
  • During the quantitative risk analysis, the team estimated the total level of all identified risks and reported it as the total residual risk before testing
  • Risk assessment revealed a very high level of performance risks, so it was decided to perform detailed performance efficiency testing early in the SDLC

Question 65

Question
