iSQI TMMi-P_Syll2.1 Questions Answers

During the Diagnosing phase of a test improvement cycle, in addition to conducting an assessment to determine the current maturity status, the activity of developing recommendations is also performed. These recommendations provide guidance on what actions should be taken to achieve the desired improvements. The assessment helps establish the organisation's current state, and the recommendations serve as a roadmap for moving forward.

Regular code reviews and architectural reviews are part of the Advanced Reviews process area, which belongs to TMMi Level 4. This process area emphasizes conducting static reviews (e.g., code and design reviews) early in the lifecycle to measure product quality and adjust the testing strategy based on the insights gained from these reviews.

The Advanced Reviews process area in TMMi Level 4 aims to ensure that static testing activities such as code and architectural reviews are used to measure product quality early in the lifecycle​​.

Peer Reviews is NOT a TMMi Level 2 process area. Peer Reviews is a process area at TMMi Level 3. At Level 3, organizations formalize their testing processes, including peer reviews, which involve static testing activities like inspections and walkthroughs to identify defects early.

Test Policy and Strategy, Test Monitoring and Control, and Test Environment are all process areas at TMMi Level 2.

TMMi References:

Peer Reviews are introduced at TMMi Level 3, whereas Test Policy and Strategy, Test Monitoring and Control, and Test Environment are process areas at Level 2​​.

In the TMMi framework, specific goals can indeed have different specific practices across maturity levels. The practices associated with a specific goal evolve as an organization matures, reflecting the need for more sophisticated approaches at higher levels of maturity. For example, test design practices at Level 2 are more basic compared to the more comprehensive practices at Level 3, which include integration with other lifecycle processes.

The other statements are incorrect. For instance, sub-practices are informative and not mandatory, and while generic goals have the same set of practices across process areas, specific goals vary by maturity level.

TMMi process areas include specific goals that may have different practices depending on the maturity level, as the process areas evolve with higher maturity​​.
