- B . Holding debriefing meetings
- C . Writing detailed test procedures
- D . Working in pairs
Which of the following fits the principles of experience-based testing?
- A . Coverage calculations can be used to determine the amount of testing required
- B . Different people will have a different experience level regarding usability testing
- C . Models can be used to derive the required test cases
- D . Experience in test execution is more important than experience in test design
When preparing for an exploratory test, which of the following sets of artifacts would be the most appropriate to produce?
- A . Charter outlining tasks (tests) to be performed and objectives to be met, plus a set of heuristics to follow
- B . Charter outlining tasks (tests) to be performed and objectives to be met, plus a set of heuristics to follow and the completed session sheets
- C . Charter outlining tasks (tests) to be performed and objectives to be met, plus a set of defect types to be targeted and a list of new issues encountered
- D . Charter outlining objectives to be met, plus a set of heuristics to follow
To enhance the test design phase the purchase of a test design tool is being considered.
Which statement characterizes best a test design tool?
- A . It validates models of the software
- B . It enables tests to be executed automatically
- C . It enables individual tests to be traced to requirements
- D . It generates test inputs or executable tests from requirements
Which of the following is an important principle for using experienced-based test techniques?
- A . Tester skill is a critical factor in assigning test execution tasks
- B . Tester skills are less important than ensuring 100% test utilization
- C . Testers should always focus on defect-prevention activities
- D . Testers should be evaluated based on the number of defects they find
It is possible that the test execution phase will be shortened and that test cases will need to be prioritised.
What is the main reason to prioritise the test cases?
- A . Get the areas the programmer is most worried about finished first
- B . Get finished within the time and budget available
- C . Ensure that when you stop you have done the best tests in the time available

Scenario "Tax system"
The tax system needs to be updated due to new legislation. For a person with a salary of less than é20.000 and who is married, the tax needs to be re-calculated. If the person also has more than two and less than five children, an additional 10% reduction is applicable.
The functionality of the newly released tax system is now at the right level. However, there are frequent complaints about non-functional issues.
In particular:
i. the new system does not run on PC’s with VISTA installed
ii. it is difficult to update the system quickly when new legislation must be implemented
iii. especially when many users are using the web site, the system seems to be slow
iv. some users enthusiastically use the system but are not able to complete some of the transactions.
Which TWO types of risks are related to complaint (i) and (ii)?
- A . Functionality
- B . Usability
- C . Efficiency
- D . Portability
- E . Maintainability
