Which of the following statements, about the test reporting activities for a project adopting an iterative lifecycle model with very short iterations (e.g. two weeks iterations), is correct?
Consider an agile team adopting Extreme Programming (XP) with five developers and one tester without any coding experience.To which of the following activities would you expect the tester will contribute most?
Which of the following statements best describes an appropriate approach for managing exploratory testing?
Assume you are managing the system testing phase of a project.The system test execution period is scheduled to twenty weeks.All tests are manual tests. You are following a risk-driven test approach.During the last staff meeting the project manager tells you new deadlines that will not allow completion of all the system tests.Which of the following would you expect to be the best way to respond to this situation?
You are performing a quality risk analysis for a CSCI (Computer Software Configuration Item) used to implement a CBIT (Continuous Built-In Test) module of a safety-critical system.During the quality risk analysis, you are trying to identify the ways in which failures of the CBIT module can occur, for each of them trying to determine the potential causes and likely effects, and the risk level (calculated as the product of three factors: severity, occurrence and detection).Which of the following risk analysis techniques are you working with?
Consider an information system of a Pay-Tv company based on a SOA architecture.The integrated system currently consists of three core systems: a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system a BRM (Billing and Revenue Management) system a CAS (Conditional Access System) systemAll of them communicating with SOA Middleware.You have been asked to manage the testing activities for the integration of two additional off-the-shelf systems from two different vendors: a SMS (Short Message Service) server and an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system.Assume that there is a high likelihood that the two off-the-shelf systems will be low-quality and that you have a clear proof that the testing performed by the two vendors on their systems has been unsystematic and unprofessional. This obviously leads to higher quality risk for the overall integrated system.You are the Test Manager of this project. Your main goal is to plan for testing activities to mitigate this risk.Which of the following answers best describes the test activities (assuming it is possible to perform all of them) you should plan for?
