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]

You are the manager of a test team. You inherited most of these people from a previous manager who promoted technical skills, particularly programming skills. As a result, your people are very strong in test automation skills, white box testing and complex test design techniques. You have just been told that you can hire five new people. You want the new people to complement the existing skill sets and you want to be sure the team will have a strong mutual respect.

Given the following options, who should you hire? [3]

You are the Test Manager for a software house (SoftTech), who provide a core banking product to retail banks around the world to enable their customers to process payments via the Internet and telephone banking.

Your current project is to integrate SoftTech’s core banking product with Welsh Bank’s existing bank systems. However, Welsh Bank’s systems are maintained by experienced developers and are poorly documented.

Welsh Bank has stated that this project must comply with Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)

regulatory banking standards.

A specification for the 10 interfaces to Welsh Bank’s existing systems has been produced by SoftTech’s development team.

You have been asked to plan and conduct reviews for the system integration and support documentation of all the systems.

Following identification of a number of costly system performance failures late in the development lifecycle, your organisation has introduced a more rigorous review process for system design documents and source code to enhance phase containment. There will be subsequent checks to see if the improved review process detects/prevents these types of performance defects which are likely to have the highest impact on the technical behavior of the system. You have been tasked with evaluating the current defect management tool that will be used to support the reviews and dynamic testing, to ensure that the correct defect data attributes will be captured to enable these checks to be done.

Which three of the following attributes would be MOST effective?

a) Phase of introduction

b) Severity

c) Steps to reproduce the failure

d) Resolution details

e) Phase of detection

Which of the following are Test Closure activities?

a. All results lodged in configuration management system – for example test plans, results, logs, reports.

b. Plans in place for lessons to be learnt to ensure that good practices are repeated and poor practices are not.

c. Checks undertaken to ensure that all test work is completed – all tests executed or skipped, all defects managed to appropriate conclusion.

d. All project closure activities completed – for example customer training completed, and analysis of vendor performance undertaken.

e. AM testing work products delivered to those that need them – for example environments/ regression test sets passed to maintenance.

f. Checks undertaken to ensure that all tests have been executed, with all defects confirmed as fixed by retesting.

SCENARIO 3

You are the Test Manager for a software house called "MakeMyApp" that specialise in mobile phone applications, agile techniques are used for all software development projects.

A new project is underway to develop enhancements to a ‚photo sharing‘ application, known as ‚PictureFriend‘. There are two types of user account available -Premium Users and Guest Users. Guest users only have limited functionality available.

The enhanced features to PictureFriend are:

• Feature 1: Guest Users can share photos with other Guest Users and Premium Users;

• Feature 2: Premium Users can edit pictures before posting to their account;

• Feature 3: Premium Users can create ‚3D-effect‘ photographs

The requirements for each feature will be broken down into a number of User Stories with acceptance criteria created for each of them. User Stories are planned and delivered in 2-week ‚Sprints‘. The project will have 3 sprints.
