Test Management
Which of the following statements best describes an appropriate approach for managing exploratory testing?
Number of correct responses: 1
K21 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.Exploratory testing should not be managed because such testing is inherently unmanageable and not measurable
• C.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
• D.Define very generic charters to drive exploratory testing sessions of 2 days where testers are completely free to decide what to test

Your test process is fully integrated into the software development lifecycle. You are at which TMMi level?
[1]

• A.Defined
• B.Initial
• C.Managed
• D.Optimized

Assume that no additional product risks have been identified during the first week of test execution.


Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the residual risks associated with the identified product risks, at the end of the first week of test execution?
Number of correct responses: 1
K32 credits

• A.The residual risk level can't be determined, because it requires that all the test cases have been executed
• B.Since R3 is the only risk for which all test cases have passed, the risk has been reduced by 20%
• C.The test execution status table indicates that the risk has been reduced by 56%
• D.The test execution table doesn't give an indication of the risk level of the open defects and the test cases that failed or are not run yet

You have been carefully monitoring the progress of testing for your project. You have been using the established traceability to verify that the requirements and test conditions are being adequately addressed. The test team is proceeding well in their test case execution and you can see that you are achieving about 80% coverage of the test conditions per the traceability mapping in your test management system. You have seen a number of defects being logged against test conditions that are failing, but you do not see a mapping of the test cases to those conditions.
What is likely to be occurring in the testing area that is causing the traceability to break down? [2]

• A.The testers are executing the wrong tests.
• B.The testers are running exploratory tests that are not mapped to the test conditions.
• C.The testers are not updating the test execution information in the test management system.
• D.The test cases are mapped to the test strategy and are bypassing the test conditions.

Test Tools and Automation
Assume you are managing a test automation project for a mission-critical system.
Because vendor provided tools and open source solutions don't meet the needs of this project, you ask your test team to develop a custom automation framework.
Which of the following management issues associated to the development of this custom automation framework is least likely to manage?
Number of correct responses: 1
K21 credit

• A.The custom automation framework will require an adequate documentation
• B.The custom automation framework will need proper maintenance
• C.Proper testing for the custom automation framework must be performed
• D.The changes to the custom automation framework should be communicated to all external users of this tool under the GNU license
