Question 24

Testing Process

Which of the following statements describing the consequences of specifying test conditions at a detailed level is NOT true?

Number of correct responses: 1

K21 credit

Options:

In an environment where the test basis is continuously changing, it is recommended to specify test conditions at a detailed level in order to achieve a better maintainability

The specification of test conditions at a detailed level can be effective when no formal requirements or other development work products are available

The specification of test conditions at a detailed level can require the implementation of an adequate level of formality across the team

For system testing, the specification of test conditions at a detailed level, carried out early in the project as soon as the test basis is established, can contribute to defect prevention

Question 25

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?

Number of correct responses: 1

K32 credits

Options:

Since R3 is the only risk for which all test cases have passed, the risk has been reduced by 20%

The test execution status table indicates that the risk has been reduced by 56%

The residual risk level can’t be determined, because it requires that all the test cases have been executed

The test execution table doesn’t give an indication of the risk level of the open defects and the test cases that failed or are not run yet

Question 26

Reviews

Which of the following factors could negatively influence a review?

Number of correct responses: 1

K21 credit

Options:

Include people with the adequate level of knowledge, both technical and procedural

Include people who are detail-oriented and scrupulous at finding issues

Include as many people as possible in order to have more viewpoints about possible problems on the item under review

Include people able to contribute to a clear, thoughtful, constructive and objective discussion

Question 27

The main objectives the senior management team wants to achieve are:

- to reduce the costs associated with dynamic testing

- to use reviews to ensure that the project is on course for success and following the plan

- to use reviews as a well-documented and effective bug-removal activity following a formal process with well-defined roles

- to determine the effectiveness of reviews in terms of phase containment

- to improve phase containment effectiveness

Which of the following answers would you expect to describe the best way to achieve these objectives?

Number of correct responses: 1

K43 credits

Options:

You should plan for lightweight exit-phase reviews at the end of each development and testing phase, and plan for a process of gathering information from testing to perform an analysis aimed at identifying the larger cluster of defects

You should plan for formal exit-phase reviews at the end of each development and testing phase, and plan for a process of gathering information from testing to perform an analysis aimed at identifying the larger cluster of defects

You should plan for formal exit-phase reviews at the end of each development phase and testing phase, and plan for a process of gathering information from testing to perform an analysis of the bugs found during testing to determine the people responsible for those bugs
