You are the Test Manager for a project to develop a client-server application that allows wine vendors to order custom-assorted packages of wines of several winemakers to sell special packages in their wine shops.
You decide to apply a blended risk-based and reactive testing strategy. Below the exit criteria for the system testing.
EXCR1- Each “critical” quality risk item must be covered by at least one test condition
EXCR2- Each “critical” requirement must be covered by at least one test condition
The following are the “critical” requirements of the application:
REQ-SEL-1. The application shall allow the user to order only one package at a time
REQ-SEL-2. The application shall allow the user to select between four different packages (2-bottles, 6-bottles, 12-bottles, 15-bottles)
REQ-SEL-3. The application shall allow the user to order a package containing at least 1 bottle and no more bottles than the package size. No error messages shall be displayed if the user selects a valid number of bottles (at least 1 bottle and no more than the package size)
REQ-SEL-4. The application shall display an error message “Invalid number of bottles” if an invalid number of bottles is selected by the user (zero bottles or a number higher than the package size)
REQ-PAY-1. The application shall allow the user to pay with the three accepted credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express)
REQ-PAY-2. The application shall display an error message “Invalid credit card” if invalid credit card data are given by the user
The following is the unique “critical” quality risk item that has been identified:
CR-RSK-1. The GUI of the application might accept non-integer values for the input field designed to get the number of bottles from the user
Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been identified.
TC-SEL-2. Test the selection of the package sizes
TC-SEL-4. Test wrong numbers of bottles for an order
TC-CR-RSK-1. Test the accepted values from the input field designed to get the number of bottles from the user
What is the MINIMUM number of test conditions that must be added to fulfill both the EXCR1 and EXCR2 exit criteria? K3 2 credits
- A . 4
- B . 3
- C . 2
- D . 1
The following are the exit criteria described in the test plan of a software product:
EX1. The test suite for the product must ensure that at least each quality risk item is covered by at least one test case (a quality risk item can be covered by more test cases).
EX2. All test cases in the test suite must be run during the execution phase.
EX3. Defects are classified into two categories: “C” (critical defect) and “NC” (non-critical defect). No known C defects shall exist in the product at the end of the test execution phase.
Which of the following information is useless when the specified exit criteria is evaluated?
K2 1 credit
- A . A traceability matrix showing the relationships between the product risk items and the test cases
- B . A list of all the open defects with the associated classification information extracted from the defect tracking system
- C . A chart, showing the trend in the lag time from defect reporting to resolution, extracted from the defect tracking system
- D . The execution status of all the test cases extracted from the test management tool
Which of the following statements describing the consequences of specifying test conditions at a detailed level is NOT true? K2 1 credit
- 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
Which of the following is an example of the test closure activity indicated as "lessons learned"?
K2 1 credit
- A . Archive all the test results of the acceptance testing phase
- B . Deliver a list of the open defects of a software product released into production to the service desk team
- C . Participate in a meeting at the end of a project aimed at better managing the events and problems of future projects
- D . Deliver an automated regression test suite, used during the system test phase of a software product released into production, to the team responsible for maintenance testing

REQ-PAY-2. The application shall display an error message “Invalid credit card” if invalid credit card data are given by the user
QUSTION NO: 11
The following is the unique “critical” quality risk item that has been identified:
CR-RSK-1. The GUI of the application might accept non-integer values for the input field designed to get the number of bottles from the user
Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been identifieD.
TC-SEL-2. Test the selection of the package sizes
TC-SEL-4. Test wrong numbers of bottles for an order
TC-CR-RSK-1. Test the accepted values from the input field designed to get the number of bottles from the user
Assume that you have used traceability to determine the logical test cases that cover all the requirements and the single risk item identified in that scenario.
Which of the following is a positive logical test that is complete and correct, and covers the REQ-SEL-4 requirement?
K3 2 credits
- A . Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 5 bottles; verify that no error messages are displayed
- B . Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles; verify that no error messages are displayed
- C . Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles; verify that the "Invalid number of bottles" message is displayed
- D . Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles
Which of the following statements best describes an appropriate approach for managing exploratory testing? Number of correct responses: 1 K2 1 credit
- A . Define very detailed mission statements, which allow testing work to be broken into sessions of up to 10 minutes duration in which testing is guided by these mission statements
- B . Break the testing work in 30 to 120 minutes sessions and use properly defined mission statements consisting of two or three sentences to guide testing during these sessions
- C . Define very generic charters to drive exploratory testing sessions of 2 days where testers are completely free to decide what to test
- D . Exploratory testing should not be managed because such testing is inherently unmanageable and not measurable
The following chart plots the cumulative number of defects opened against the cumulative number of defects closed during system testing of a software product.
Which of the following statements is true? K2 1 credit
- A . The chart indicates that you have plenty of problems left to find
- B . The chart can be used to reveal test progress problems
- C . The chart seems to indicate that the defect management process is not working well
- D . The chart seems to indicate that the defect management process is working well
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?
K2 1 credit
- A . Test reporting activities can’t be influenced by the use of an iterative lifecycle model with short iterations
- B . Test reporting activities are not important for projects adopting an iterative lifecycle model with short iterations
- C . Test reporting activities are less important for projects adopting an iterative life cycle model with short iterations. They should be performed at the end of the last iteration
- D . Test reporting activities are still important with an iterative lifecycle. The reports can be
used to conduct post-iteration review sessions before starting with the next iteration
You are the Test Manager on a project following an iterative life-cycle model. The project should consist of nine iterations of one month duration each. It is planned to develop the most important features to have a stable core of the application in the first three iterations and to add the additional features in the last six iterations.
At the beginning of the first iteration, only a draft version of the requirements specification document for the core features is available. Assume that during each of the first three iterations, the chosen features are fully completed and unit tested.
Which of the following statements is true in this context? K4 3 credits
- A . The system test phase should start when all the requirements are frozen
- B . You should allocate a large effort for system testing during the first three iterations
- C . You should allocate all the effort for the system test phase only in the last iteration
- D . You should apply the same test strategy as used in a sequential life cycle model
Which of the following statements describing how identified product quality risks should be mitigated and managed, is true? K2 1 credit
- A . The extent of re-testing and regression testing activities should be based on the risk level
- B . The identification of new risks, the re-assessment of the level of existing risks and the evaluation of the effectiveness of risk mitigation activities should only occur at the very beginning of a project
- C . Risk mitigation of product quality risks can be effective only after starting test execution
- D . The priority of the development and execution of tests should not be based on the risk level but only on the likelihood
