Question 1

Which of the following answers describes a factor that may reduce the effort spent when using distributed test teams without negatively affecting system quality?

Options :

A : Difficulties in communication between the distributed test teams due to time zone differences

B : With several distributed test teams, every team assumes that some test conditions are covered by other teams but actually no one covers them

C : With several distributed test teams, two or more teams assume some test conditions are covered by their team and their team alone. But all of the teams actually cover them

D : With several distributed test teams, all of the distributed test teams use a single unified test dashboard

Answer: D

Question 2

Which of the following information would you expect to be the most useful to perform a defect clustering analysis?

Options :

A : The trend in the lag time from defect reporting to resolution

B : The defect component information

C : The lifecycle phase in which the defect has been introduced

D : The defect removal efficiency information

Answer: B

Question 3

Assume you are working on a CAS (Conditional Access System) for Pay-TV that allows the access,selection and transfer of services and media to authorized users. Authorized users can choose theirservices through different channels: Web Customer Portal, IVR (Interactive Voice Response), Call Centreand SMS. The system uses a Smart Card to receive and decrypt the broadcasted encrypted control wordswhich allow decrypting pay-per-view TV. Every authorized user must have a Smart Card and a Set-Top Boxto view the contents.The following is an excerpt from the product risk analysis document:Both likelihood and impact have been rated on the following scale: (1 – Very low, 2 – Low, 3 – Medium, 4 –High, 5 – Very High).The required test environment and code have been delivered. All test cases for each identified product riskitem have been written and are ready to be executed. The Database used to contain the Smart Cards isempty and so only new Smart Cards can be used during test execution.A Smart Card can only be activated if it has been previously pre-activated. This means the post-conditionsfor the execution of the test cases to test the pre-activation of the Smart Card are the pre-conditions foractivation of the Smart Card.Which of the following statements represents the most effective contribution of the stakeholders to thecompletion of the failure mode analysis table?

Options :

A : The aircraft pilot and the customer representative should contribute to assess the detection. The chief software engineer, the system architect and the expert tester should contribute to assess the priority.

B : The aircraft pilot and the customer representative should contribute to assess the priority. The chief software engineer, the system architect and the expert tester should contribute to assess the detection.

C : The system architect and the chief software engineer should contribute to assess the priority. The expert tester is the only one who should contribute to assess the detection.

D : The aircraft pilot is the only one qualified to contribute to assess the priority and thus should be assigned this task. The customer representative should contribute to assess the detection.

Answer: B

Question 4

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

Options :

A : 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

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

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

D : 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

Answer: A

Question 5

Assume you have some data related to confirmation testing during system testing of a past project.In that project 240 bug reports have been opened once, 80 were opened twice, 10 were opened three timesand no bug reports have been opened more than three times.You estimate that a bug report, which has failed its confirmation test, costs, on average, 3 person-hours.Which of the following statements correctly describe the value of these confirmatory testing activities basedon cost of quality?

Options :

A : 300 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of internal failure

B : 340 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of external failure

C : 340 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of internal failure

D : 300 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of detection
