As the Test Manager for an agile project how would you BEST plan and guide the testing activities during development? SELECT ONE OPTION

• A.Ensure all tests are written and reviewed by the developers to ensure they reflect the code being developed
• B.Ensure testers are separated from the developers to provide an independent set of functional tests
• C.Ensure testers are integrated into the development process, helping to review and develop automated unit tests
• D.Ensure testers provide training to developers to help them write a set of auto-mated unit tests

You are a newly appointed Test Manager in an organisation that has no separate test team, no formal testing process and testing is considered to be, at best, ad-hoc in approach. The IT director is keen to introduce improvement across all areas of the organisation, not just testing. This is so that the current level of maturity can be assessed and roadmaps outlined for improving processes in a staged way. He has asked you to recommend a test process improvement model and you have suggested TMMi.
Which ONE of the following is a valid reason for your recommendation? SELECT ONE OPTION

• A.It provides the fastest way to take testing to an optimized state.
• B.It naturally complements the IT director's process improvement goals for the organisation.
• C.It provides bench-marking against industry averages using objective measurements.
• D.It helps address highest priority testing issues with limited formality.

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

You just handed over the Defect Accepted and Deferred report to your Maintenance team.
Which testing activity are you performing? [1]

• A.Test Closure
• B.Test Exit Criteria
• C.Defect Design
• D.Test Decommission

A car rental company offers discounts to its customers based on a number of factors, including booking history, length of membership and type of car being booked. An update to the rental application is under test, with test cases written that specifically address a documented product risk covering discount calculation.
Although the risk impact was analysed as high, the likelihood was given as low, as there had been no known changes to the calculation rules. However, during test execution some discount calculations were incorrect and investigation showed that code changes had been made that impacted the discount algorithms. As a result, the likelihood was increased to high by the risk management team.
Which would be the BEST measure to take to respond to the current situation?

• A.Update the test case coverage of the discount calculation risk to reflect the increased risk level
• B.Review the composition of the risk management team to ensure a better diversity of stakeholders
• C.Monitor the risk and adjust the risk register to reflect the changed risk level and any new risksdiscovered
• D.Adopt a risk-based testing strategy to help mitigate failures in the rental application
