NEW QUESTION # 62
Assume that you are the Test Manager for a small insurance application development project.
You have decided to adopt a risk-based testing strategy: 5 product risks (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5) have been identified and their levels of risk have been assessed. 10 test cases (T1, ..., T10) have been designed to cover all the product risks.
The following table shows the risk level and the test cases associated to the identified product risks (higher risk level means higher risk):
You are not confident with the assessment of the risk level and you suspect that it will be possible to find high-priority bugs in low-risk areas.
Furthermore the period for test execution is very short. Your goal is to test all the product risks in a risk-based way, while assuring that each product risk gets at least some amount of testing.
Which of the following answers describes the best test execution schedule in this scenario?

NEW QUESTION # 74
Your application development team is performing "test-driven" development. This is a core principal of which software development model?[1]
- A. Spiral
- B. Iterative
- C. Agile
- D. Sequential
Answer: C
Explanation:
Test-driven development (TDD) is a core principle of Agile software development. In TDD, test cases are created before the code is written, and the code is developed to pass these tests. This approach emphasizes requirements and solutions evolving through collaborative effort and is a key practice in Agile methodologies12.
References:The Agile Alliance describes TDD as a style of programming tightly interwoven with coding, testing, and design, which is a fundamental aspect of Agile development3. Wikipedia also notes that TDD is related to the test-first programming concepts of extreme programming, an Agile methodology This is because test-driven development (TDD) is a style of programming in which coding, testing, and design are tightly interwoven. TDD is a core principle of agile software development, which is an iterative and adaptive approach that values customer collaboration, working software, and responding to change.

NEW QUESTION # 75
Test Management
You are working on a project to develop an authentication system for an e-commerce website. This system provides two features: Registration and authentication. Two different development teams develop these two features.
There is a high likelihood that the delivery of the authentication feature to the test team will be three weeks later. To complete the registration the user must provide the following registration inputs: Name, surname, birthdate, fiscal code and he/she can select a username and a password.
A registered user can be a special user or a normal user. To be identified as a special user, he/she must also provide, during the registration process, a voucher possibly received from the IT department.
Access is granted only if a user is registered and the password is correct: In all other cases access is denied. If the registered user is a special user and the password is wrong, a special warning is shown on the system console.
You are currently performing a quality risk analysis using FMEA.
Based only on the given information, which of the following is NOT a product risk that could be identified during the quality risk analysis?
- A. The late delivery of the authentication feature to the test team causes delays in the start of test execution and this could result in a shorter test period
- B. The authentication system denies access for a special user with a wrong password, but doesn't display a special warning on the system console
- C. The authentication system grants access to a special user with a wrong password
- D. The authentication system grants access to a normal user with a wrong password

NEW QUESTION # 77
Which of the following is a key characteristic of a management review? [1]
- A. Used to check consistency of and deviation from the system requirements
- B. Conducted by an external group to assess process compliance
- C. Used to assess project risks
- D. Run by a moderator

NEW QUESTION # 79
Which of the following is likely to occur if reviewers do not have an adequate level of technical knowledge?
[1]
- A. The review will be shorter because any technical aspect can be skipped.
- B. There will be no impact as long as they have sufficient business knowledge.
- C. The review is likely to be less efficient.
- D. There will be no impact as long as they have sufficient process knowledge.
Answer: C
Explanation:
If reviewers do not have an adequate level of technical knowledge, they may not be able to identify and describe anomalies in the product or project under review1. They may also not be able to provide constructive feedback or suggestions for improvement2. This can result in a less efficient review, as the review objectives may not be met, the review process may take longer, or the review outcome may be of lower quality3.
Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because having sufficient business knowledge is not enough to perform a technical review, as business knowledge does not cover the technical aspects of the product or project4. Option B is incorrect because having sufficient process knowledge is not enough to perform a technical review, as process knowledge does not cover the technical aspects of the product or project4. Option D is incorrect because skipping any technical aspect can compromise the quality and completeness of the review, and may lead to defects or risks in the product or project5.

What is a "depth-first" risk-based testing technique? [1]
- A. Highest risk test cases are executed first
- B. Lowest risk test cases are executed first
- C. Non-functional test cases are executed first
- D. All risk items are tested at least once
Answer: A
Explanation:
A depth-first risk-based testing technique is a method of prioritizing and executing test cases based on the risk level of the features or functions to be tested. In this technique, the test cases with the highest risk are executed first, followed by the test cases with lower risks. This ensures that the most critical and likely areas of failure are tested thoroughly and early in the testing process.
