Question No. 1

You are managing the system testing for a SOA based system. The integrated system consists of several subsystems:

- A SOA middleware

- A CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system

- A BRM (Billing and Revenue Management) system

- A SMS (Subscriber Management System) system and you performed a risk analysis based on these subsystems.

At the end of the scheduled period for test execution you produce a first classical report based on the traditional metrics of testing. Test pass/fail status and bug status (open/resolved) That table provides you a distorted picture of the quality risk, because there is no indication of the risk level of the failed tests, the tests not run, or the open bugs. Thus, you produce the following table to solve this distortion issue:

In the table above, where you have introduced the concept of risk weighting, the highest risk test or bug report has a score of 1, while the lowest risk test or bug report has a score of 0.04. Which of the following subsystems, based on the risk scores of the table, is most risky? K4 3 credits

ASOA

BCRM

CBRM

DSMS

Correct Answer: B

Question No. 2

After the presentation, you are asked to explain the chart. Assume you have applied a full risk-based testing strategy.

Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the pie chart?

K4 3 credits

AAll the risk items have been covered with tests. No more risk items remain to test

BAccording to the full risk-based testing strategy applied, it is very likely that the highest-risk items, tests and bugs remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore, it is very risky to release the application

COnly the lowest-risk items, tests and bugs should remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore the application can be released at any time subject to management of the items identified in those areas

D97 percent of the risk items has been tested. No open bugs or test failures remain. Only 3 percent of risk items remains to be covered by the remaining test

Show Answer

Correct Answer: C

Question No. 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 their services through different channels: Web Customer Portal, IVR (Interactive Voice Response), Call Centre and SMS. The system uses a Smart Card to receive and decrypt the broadcasted encrypted control words which allow decrypting pay-per-view TV. Every authorized user must have a Smart Card and a Set-Top Box to 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 risk item have been written and are ready to be executed. The Database used to contain the Smart Cards is empty 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 postconditions for the execution of the test cases to test the pre-activation of the Smart Card are the pre-conditions for activation of the Smart Card.

Which of the following statements represents the most effective contribution of the stakeholders to the completion of the failure mode analysis table?

K4 3 credits

AThe 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.

BThe 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.

CThe 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.

DThe 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.

Correct Answer: B

Question No. 4

In the next two months some new features will be constantly added to new releases of a project you are working on as Test Manager.

You have identified as one of the main project risks, that the requirements specification will still be incomplete when your team starts the test design and implementation phase.

Some requirements will most likely be completed too late to allow a proper test preparation. You and your test team have already worked on several similar past projects in the same organization.

Which one of the following options would you expect to be the most effective at mitigating this risk?

K4 3 credits

ADon't prepare any test and just run the regression test suite to check that the new features don't introduce regression

BMake reasonable assumptions about the missing details and design lightweight tests that can be easily updated during test execution

CDon't design any test until the test execution starts, then communicate that test execution is blocked due to incomplete requirements

DEven if there are only few details missing, escalate the risk to the project manager without preparing any tests

Correct Answer: B

Question No. 5

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

K2 1 credit

ADifficulties in communication between the distributed test teams due to time zone differences

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

CWith 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

DWith several distributed test teams, all of the distributed test teams use a single unified test dashboard
