You tend to be conservative in your project estimations because you know how many things can go wrong and extend the schedule. You manager is not happy with your estimates and thinks you are being too negative with your numbers and not trying hard enough Which estimation method should you use to provide your manager with a positive' number while still also providing the number you think is more realistic?

Which of the following statements describing the consequences of specifying test conditions at a detailed level is NOT true?

The following are the requirements identified as "critical":
REQ-SEL-001. The user shall be able to combine all the three products with all the four
durations to define an item to purchase
REQ-SEL-002. The user shall be able to add a maximum of six different items to the
shopping cart
REQ-PUR-001. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using
a credit voucher
REQ-PUR-002. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using
the available credit already charged on the smartcard
REQ-PUR-003. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using
all the accepted credit cards (Visa, MasterCard and Great Wall Card)
REG-LOGO-001. The user shall be able to logout (by clicking the logout button) from both
the "select" and "purchase" pages going back to the "browse" page (anonymous
navigation)
Moreover the following quality risk item has been identified as "critical":
QR-P1. The web customer portal might not be able to provide the expected response time
(less than 10 sec) for the purchase transactions under a load of up-to 1000 concurrent
users
Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been
identifieD.
TC-SEL-01. Test the combinations of products and durations to define an item to purchase
TC-SEL-02. Test the maximum number of items, which can be added to the shopping cart
TC-PUR-01. Test the purchase of an item
TC-PUR-02. Test the purchase of an item with the credit charged on the smartcard
What is the MINIMUM number of test conditions that must be added to fulfill both the
EXCR1 and EXCR2 exit criteria?

A chart showing the trend in the lag time from defect reporting to resolution during system testing is also available. The chart shows that the daily closure period is consistently and significantly above the rolling closure period for a long period of the system testing phase.
Almost all defects found during system testing have been related to the system as a whole, not related to single units or integrations issues. Almost all quality risks have been addressed during the unit and integration testing phase and no residual quality risks were present in the integrated system. This has been confirmed by exploratory testing sessions performed during system testing, targeted at finding defects in these quality risk areas.
Based on the given information only, which one of the following areas would you expect to be considered more in the retrospective meeting in order to be improved?

You are the Test Manager of a project that adopts a V-model with four formal levels of
testinG. unit, integration, system and acceptance testing.
On this project reviews have been conducted for each development phase prior to testing,
which is to say that reviews of requirements, functional specification, high-level design, low-
level design and code have been performed prior to testing.
Assume that no requirements defects have been reported after the release of the product.
Which TWO of the following metrics do you need in order to evaluate the requirements
reviews in terms of phase containment effectiveness?
