You are Test Manager for a project which is in the Test Implementation stage for the first planned iteration, creation of the initial Test Cases and required test data is progressing well.
The Test Strategy documents the Stakeholders view that small teams should collaborate together to create and test functionality which is to be released in iterations, with each release building on the success of the last.
Stakeholders are willing to accept the risks of a partly working system in the early stages. Delivery of working functionality (particularly around interfaces to third party systems and performance of back end databases) is the priority for the early releases.
Which of the following test types would you select for this first planned iteration, in order to meet Stakeholders expectations?
a) Usability testing
b) Structural testing
c) Functional testing of process flows
d) Performance testing
e) Business process testing
f) Component integration testing

You are a Test Manager on a new project. The software that is being created will be used to control the projectors in movie theaters. This is a time critical project because the software must be
released before the Christmas holiday season which has the highest movie attendance of the year.
You have decided to implement a review process for the work products that are a part of this release to save both time and money. In order to expedite the training, you brought in a consultant to
train the participants and moderators in proper review processes. Your team is enthusiastic about participating in the reviews.
The project is in the early planning stages. As the review leader, what is an appropriate activity for you to be doing at this point in the project? [3]
You have been asked to implement formal reviews at your company. From the list below, what are the correct characteristics of a formal review?
a. Entry and exit criteria have been defined.
b. Checklists created to be used by all reviewers.
c. Consistency with current project plan is checked.
d. Metrics on effectiveness will be gathered.
e. The review will be moderated by a lead auditor.
Which of the following statements is true regarding Fault Tree Analysis? [1]
You have been promoted to Test Manager within your company. Your new manager states that your test team utilized a risk-based test approach for the last release but in production, a number of
serious failures in lightly tested areas have occurred.
What would be your first action prior to the start of the next test phase for the next release? [3]
Assume that you are part of a team conducting test design for a new university system that will allow students to update their own personal information. The Test
Strategy states that positive and negative testing should be carried out. along with performance, security and interoperability testing against all new requirements.
The following requirements have been identified by stakeholders:
1. Students must be able to make changes to the following information:
a Name (due to marital status)
b Marital status
c. Home address
d. Home telephone number
e. Email address
f. Mobile telephone number
g. Contact details in case of emergency
2 Only Reception staff must have access to the information held.
3 The system must support 2000 concurrent users and details updated on the system within 20 seconds.
4. Interoperability of the new system with the other systems maintained by the University for student Registrations.
Test analysis for functional and non-functional testing has iust bequn and the following test conditions have been identified:
Which one of the following is a valid test condition that is missing from the table of test conditions and has clear traceability back to the test strategy and requirements?
SELECT ONE OPTION
Which of the following statements correctly describes a 'depth-first approach' to managing risk based testing? SELECT ONE OPTION
You are testing a new product that will turn on the windshield wipers of a car when the sensors detect there is moisture on the windshield. Depending on the information
returned from the sensors, the wipers will be turned on at one of the following speeds: slow intermittent, medium intermittent, fast intermittent, slow constant, medium
constant, fast constant. Your team has identified the following test condition:
Test Condition 1.1.1 - Verify that the windshield wipers can go from slow constant to fast constant speed when the amount of moisture increases appropriately.
Your team has defined the following steps for a test case for this test condition:
1. Set the moisture sensor to request slow constant
2. Increase the moisture to set the sensor to request fast constant
3. Verify that the wipers respond with fast constant speed
Given this information, which of the following statements is correct? [2]
You are a Test Manager at a company that develops mobile phone applications. Based on historical data in your company, you have calculated the following average metrics for system testing:
• for each 100 LOC (Lines Of Code). 4 test cases are executed
• each test case takes on average 15 minutes to execute and check
• for each 1000 LOC, 5 defects are found
You have used this information to create an estimate for the system testing of a new mobile phone application being developed to submit gas and electricity readings.
The application delivered for system testing has 50.000 lines of code. At the end of system testing, 250 defects are discovered.
Assume that:
• the system test of the new mobile phone application will require the same amount of effort as previous applications
• defect density = number of defects/1000 LOC
• no new tools or processes have been introduced to the test team
Based only on the given information, which one of the following statements is true about this new mobile phone application?
SELECT ONE OPTION
While mining the defect database for patterns of problems in the last release, a Test Manager notices that many of the most damaging failures were caused by defects
injected during the low-level design phase.
Which of the following actions will likely give this project the most effective solution to this problem? [3]
