Question: 1

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?

ATesting the TAS for application compatibility issues in the target environment

BTesting the TAS for its ability to be implemented in other target test environments.

CTesting the TAS for regressions due to optimization that fix non-functional issues.

DTesting the TAS for ITS ability to run a shared test environment

Question: 2

You identified a suitable project to pilot an automation tool and planned and conduced a pilot. The pilot has been successful and tool Is being deployed within your organization, with a plan to increase tool use by the one project at a time. During this rollout some test processes will be changed slightly to gain additional benefits from using the tool.

In the pilot project, a small set of manual tests were automated for the first time. You are currently monitoring the test automation efficiency and this reveals that the automation regime for the tests is not yet mature.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

AThe approach used for deployed this tool is aligned to the standard success factor for deployment

BThe pilot project should have been critical so that maximum benefits were delivered

CThe target defined for the project was inappropriate, because the automation regime for the automated tests at the end of the pilot is not yet mature.

DThe test process should be radically changed to gain additional benefits from using the tool.

Question: 3

You are reviewing the testability of your SUT.

Which of the following BEST refers to the characteristic of OBSERVABILITY?

AThe ability of the SUT to perform its intended function for a specified period of time

BThe ability to exercise the SUT by entering inputs, triggering events and invoking methods

CThe ability of the SUT to prevent unauthorized access to its components or data.

DThe ability to identify states, outputs, intermediate result and error messages in the SUT

Question: 4

As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within your organization. The projects require that tool to work effectively and efficiently with SUT's in distributed environments. The test automated tool also needs to interface with other existing test tools (test management tool and defect tracking tool.) The existing test tools subject to planned updates and their interface to the test automated tool may not work property after these updates.

Which of the following are the two LEAST important concerns related to the evaluation of the test automation in this scenario?

*Is the test automation tool able to launch processors and execute test cases on multiple machines in different environments?

*Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different sets?

* Does the test automation tool have a large feature set, but only part of the features will be sets?

*Do the release notes for the planned updates on existing specify the impacts on their interfaces to other tools?

Does the test automation tool need to install specific libraries that could impact the SUT?

Question: 5

Consider a SUT that small run on multiple platform during the execution of automated test runs. In each test run an automated test suite needs to be executed, with the same version of the TAF, against the same version of the SUT of each platform. Each platform shall have its own dedicated test environment. Your goal is to implement a process as automated as possible ( i.e with minimal manual intervention) that allows implementing a consistent setup of the TAS across the multiple test environments.

Which two of the following aspects are MOST relevant for achieving your goal in this scenario?

*The configuration of the TAS uses automated installation scripts

*The TAF saves the logs needed to debug errors in XML format

C) Features of the TAF not used by the automated tests have been tested

D) All the automated test cases contain the expected results

E) The TAS components are under configuration management
