Consider a TAS that is going to be deployed for the first time. The TAS requires share resources and run it its own test environment. The infrastructure for the TAS has been created along with maintenance procedures. It is very unlikely the TAS will be required to work in other target Environments. There is a high-risk that when the TAS is deployed in its own test environment, a number of existing application will no longer work because of conflicts with the existing shared resources.
Which of the following activities would you expect to be MOST effective at mitigating the risk associated with the first deployment of the TAS?

1. A. Testing the TAS for application compatibility issues in the target environment
2. B. Testing the TAS for its ability to be implemented in other target test environments.
3. C. Testing the TAS for regressions due to optimization that fix non-functional issues.
4. D. Testing the TAS for ITS ability to run a shared test environment

Correct Answer: B

You are testing a major enhancement to an air traffic control user interface. You have use of a sophisticated pre-production test environment, created specifically for large scale automated regression, performance and security testing. The window for regression testing is limited and must successfully conclude, with no major regressions remaining, before the non-functional testing starts.
You have been using the same version of the TAS for the last few releases, each time completing the automated regression test suite in a single overnight run. However, due to the latest enhancements for the SUT, you believe there is a risk that the test suite may no longer complete
overnight and therefore delay performance and security testing.
Which option would be the BEST and MOST cost-efficient approach to mitigate this risk?

1. A. Create a mirror of the pre-production test environment and split the regression test suite to run in parallel across the environments.
2. B. Split the regression test suite into multiple parts, running in the environment across consecutive nights.
3. C. Analyse the regression test suite and remove test coverage duplication and redundancy.
4. D. Introduce better coding practices for the automation scripts, including coding guidelines, reviews and improved static analysis.

Correct Answer: A

A defect in a SUT has been resolved and validated by an automated defect re-test in the current release of the software. This retest has now been added to the automated regression test suite.
Which statement BEST describes a reason why this defect could re-occur in future releases?

1. A. Automated defect confirmation testing is not effective at confirming that the resolved defect will continue to work in future releases
2. B. The configuration management process does not properly control the synchronization between software archives
3. C. The automated regression test suite is not run consistently for future releases.
4. D. The automated regression test suite has a narrower scope of functionality

Correct Answer: B

The GUI of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application has been delivered through internet Explorer with proprietary Active X and Java controls. This implementation enables rich client capabilities, but specific commercial automation tools are necessary to automate test cases at GUI of functional test cases. This is to demonstrate whether a small set of the commercial are able to properly recognize actions taken by a tester when interacting with GUI of the CRM application.
Which of the following scripting techniques would be MOST suitable in this scenario?

1. A. Data-driven scripting
2. B. Keyword-driven scripting
3. C. Linear scripting
4. D. Structure scripting

Correct Answer: D

Which of the following BEST describes why it is important to separate test definition from test execution in a TAA?

1. A. It allows developing steps of the test process without being closely tied to the SUT interface.
2. B. It allow choosing different paradigms (e.g event-driven) for the interaction TAS and SUT
3. C. It allows specify test cases without being closely tied to the tool to run them against the SUT
4. D. It allows testers to find more defects on the SUT

Correct Answer: C
