Which of the following is an important success factor for any significant automation project?
Answer : C
You have been asked to implement test automation for a project that is not meeting its deadlines. After further analysis you discover that the manual testers are not able to keep up with the new feature testing because the regression testing is taking 75% of their time. As a result, the new features are being released with many defects and customers are complaining about the quality.
Given this information, what metric SHOULD you be tracking to show the value of test automation for this project?
Answer : B
You are implementing test automation for a project and you want to be able to generate test cases automatically using a series of test design tools which use a variety of test design techniques such as decision tables, pairwise testing and boundary value analysis.
You also want to generate test data automatically which can then be used by the tests.
Initially these tests will be run manually to verify their correctness and ultimately you want to include them in the test execution tool so that they can run unattended.
Which layer of the gTAA will be used to support the specification of the test cases and preparation of the test data?
Answer : B
You are a TAE working for a software house which provides quarterly releases of its software to its customers. There are many different versions of the SUT that need to be tested simultaneously by different tests teams.
Your TAS is complex and you need to ensure it remains consistent across the different SUT environments. What is the BEST and MOST efficient way to ensure each of the test teams use the same version of the TAS to test the different versions of the SUT?
Answer : C
When the SUT provides insight into the behaviour of the system, providing the users the with the status of the various actions performed so that they can check that expected behaviour equals actual behaviour, what is this called?
Answer : C
Which of the following describes how a test execution report is likely to be used?
Answer : B
You are implementing test automation for a project that has a business critical application A test execution tool is being used to run automated regression tests. The results from the test execution tool are very important and need to be 100% accurate.
You want to merge the test automation results with the test management system that also records the manual test results so that managers can make informed decisions about the progress quickly.
Which layer of the gTAA will be used to ensure the proper reporting occurs and the interfaces to the test management system are handled?
Answer : A
