The Test Manager must assemble team members that have which of the following characteristics? 

SCENARIO

‘Safe as Houses’ is a company that specializes in home security software, including alarm systems,

surveillance cameras and other forms of deterrence.

It is currently developing the software for a device which simulates an active television, producing sound and

light images that suggest someone is home watching the television. ‘Safe as Houses’ recently won a lucrative

contract to supply the software to ‘Smart Alarms’, who will be manufacturing the hardware devices. Sound will

be created using actual television and film archives, licensed through a third-party supplier, ‘Silver Sound Ltd’. A

user interface will be developed in house to allow the customer to choose sound tracks.

The software will be delivered as a program of work, consisting of three projects. Project 1 will develop the

software for the light images, Project 2 will develop the sound system and Project 3 will integrate the two using

hardware prototypes supplied from ‘Smart Alarms’. The program will conclude with ‘Smart Alarms’ performing

User Acceptance testing in usability labs.

The ‘Safe as Houses’ test team has experience in testing alarm and surveillance systems but lacks experience

in testing light imagery software. The organizational test policy includes the following objectives:

1. Exploratory testing should be used to augment more formal, structured testing within constraints of time and

budget

2. Test automation tools should be purchased and employed to maximize the breadth and efficiency of

regression testing

The Program risk register currently includes the following risks:

Refer to SCENARIO. It has been agreed that the following test planning documents will be produced:

• A single overarching document outlining the general testing methodology for the whole program of work

• A subordinate test plan for each of the three projects

• A separate test plan for performance testing within each project

Which one of the following options BEST describes the type of test management document that will meet the

program requirements?

You are testing a new product that will turn on the windshield wipers of a car when the sensors detect there is moisture on the windshield. Depending on the information returned from the sensors, the wipers will be turned on at one of the following speeds: slow intermittent, medium intermittent, fast intermittent, slow constant, medium constant, fast constant. Your team has identified the following test condition: Test Condition 1.1.1 - Verify that the windshield wipers can go from slow constant to fast constant speed when the amount of moisture increases appropriately. Your team has defined the following steps for a test case for this test condition: 

2. Increase the moisture to set the sensor to request fast constant

3. Verify that the wipers respond with fast constant speed

Given this information, which of the following statements is correct?
