Consider a SUT that small run on multiple platform during the execution of automated test runs. In each test run an automated test suite needs to be executed, with the same version of the TAF, against the same version of the SUT of each platform. Each platform shall have its own dedicated test environment. Your goal is to implement a process as automated as possible ( i.e with minimal manual intervention) that allows implementing a consistent setup of the TAS across the multiple test environments.
Which two of the following aspects are MOST relevant for achieving your goal in this scenario?
✑ The configuration of the TAS uses automated installation scripts
✑ The TAF saves the logs needed to debug errors in XML format
A) Features of the TAF not used by the automated tests have been tested
B) All the automated test cases contain the expected results
C) The TAS components are under configuration management
- A . A and e
- B . B and c
- C . B and d
- D . A and d
If model-based testing has been selected for the overall test automation approach for a project, how does that influence the layers of the TAA?
- A . All layers are used, but the test generation layer will be automated based on the defined model
- B . There will be no need for the execution layer
- C . No adaptation will be needed because the interfaces will be defined by the model
- D . There will be no need to design the tests for the API because those will be covered by the model
You are implementing test automation for a project and you want to be able to generate test cases automatically using a series of test design tools which use a variety of test design techniques such as decision tables, pairwise testing and boundary value analysis.
You also want to generate test data automatically which can then be used by the tests.
Initially these tests will be run manually to verify their correctness and ultimately you want to include them in the test execution tool so that they can run unattended.
Which layer of the gTAA will be used to support the specification of the test cases and preparation of the test data?
- A . The generation layer
- B . The definition layer
- C . The execution layer
- D . The adaptation layer
Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.
Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?
- A . Observability: The SUT needs to provide interface that give insight into the system.
- B . Re-useability: The code written for the SUT must be re-useable for other similar system.
- C . Clearly defined architecture: The SUT Architecture needs to provide clear and understandable interfaces giving control and visibility on all test levels.
- D . Control: the SUT needs to provide interfaces that can be used to perform actions on SUT.
You are working on a web-based application called Book Vault that allows people to upload books and order books. This application must be available on all major browsers.
You have been testing the application manually and management have asked you to consider automating some of the tests.
You have investigated a number of commercial and free tools which can automate tests at a web browser level and one tool in particular meets your requirements and you have implemented a trial version.
You have basic programming skills and the main goal is to automate a few functional tests to see if the tool is compatible with the application and can recognise the objects and controls.
Which scripting technique would be MOST suitable in this scenario in order to meet the objectives?
- A . Structured scripting
- B . Capture-replay scripting
- C . Data-driven scripting
- D . Model-based scripting
