As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within yourorganization. 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 testautomation 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?

A.

A and C

B.

A and E

C.

B and E

D.

C and D

Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.

Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?

A.

Observability: The SUT needs to provide interface that give insight into the system.

B.

Re-useability: The code written for the SUT must be re-useable for other similar system.

C.

Clearly defined architecture: The SUT Architecture needs to provide clear and understandable interfaces giving control and visibility on all test levels.

D.

Control: the SUT needs to provide interfaces that can be used to perform actions on SUT.

Consider a TAS associated to dynamically changing software frequent releases. Your goal is to determine the amount ofeffort required to maintain the automated tests of the regression test suite for each new release of the SUT.

What is the MOST important metric to collect to achieve your goal?

A.

The code coverage achieved with the automated tests, for each new release ofthe SUT

B.

The number of automated tests which fail because of a single software defect, for each new release of the SUT

C.

The time it takes to execute all the automated tests, for each new release of the SUT.

D.

The number of automated testsrequiring maintenance, for each new release of the SUT.

Which of the following is NOT a technical design consideration for a TAA?

A.

The number of users for the SUT

B.

Availability of interfaces for the SUT to be testable

C.

Standards and Legal requirements,e.g data privacy

D.

Data used by the SUT, e.g configuration, users

Consider the followingexample of TAS metrics.

Time to execute automated tests

Speed and efficiency of TAS components

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.

A and B are both internal TAS metrics

B.

A is an internal TAS metric and B is an external TAS metric

C.

A and b are both external TAS metric

D.

A is and external TAS metric and b is an internal TAS metric

Which of the following success factors for a test automation project is TRUE?

A.

Automated tests must be designed to capture only the datathat is strictly needed for comparing expected and actual results

B.

The test cases to be automated first must always be selected based on the number of times a test will need to be run

C.

The test cases to be automated must have a high dependency on particular data values

D.

Automated tests that fail due to changes in the requirements of the SUT should be promptly fixed rather than disabled from the test suite

Which of the following statements does NOT describe good practice for maintaining the TAS?

A.

The TAS must run in the development environment because development and programming knowledge are required for its maintainability

B.

The TAS must be under configuration management, along with the test suite, the testware artefacts and the test environment in which it runs

C.

The TAS must separate the test scripts from the environment in which it runs and from the associated harnesses and artefacts

D.

The TAS must consist of components that can be easily replaced without affecting the overall behavior of the TAS itself

Consider a TAS that exclusively uses the APIs of a SUT. To make this work, significant changes have been required to the SUT by adding a set of dedicated test interfaces to the APIs. All the automated tests will use these test interfaces when interacting with the SUT. Assume that you are currently verifying the correctness of the automated test environment and test tool setup.

Which of the following would you expect to be the MOST specific risk associated with this scenario?

A.

The connectivity from the TAS to the dedicatedtest interfaces will not work

B.

The process of configuring the TAS will be error-phone due to manual intervention

C.

The automated test cases will not contain the expected result

D.

False alarms, that are unlikely to occur in the real world, will be observed during testing

Which of the following statement about the implementation of automated regression testing is FALSE?

A.

When automating regression tests, the structure of automated tests must always be thesame as the corresponding manual tests

B.

When automating regression tests, the corresponding manual tests should have already been executed to verify they operate correctly

C.

When automating regression tests, the initialization steps set the testpreconditions should be automated wherever possible

D.

When automating regression tests, consideration should be given to how much time would be saved by automation

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?

A.

Automated defect confirmation testing is not effective at confirming that the resolved defect will continue to work in future releases

B.

The configuration management process does not properly control the synchronization between software archives

C.

The automated regression test suite is not run consistently for future releases.

D.

The automated regression test suite has a narrower scope of functionality

You have been asked to automate a set of functional tests at system Test level via the CLI of the SUT for the first release of a software system. The automated tests will be delivered to the learn in change of maintenance testing, who will use them for part of the regression testing. They have the following requirements.

1. The automated tests must be as fast and cheap to maintain as possible

2. The cost of adding new automated tests must be as low as possible

3. The automated tests must have a high level of independence from the tool itself

Which of the following scripting techniques would be MOST suitable?

A.

Data-driven scripting

B.

Keyword-driven scripting

C.

Linear scripting

D.

Structure scripting

You are executing the first test run of a test automation suite of 200 tests. All the relevant information related to the state of the SUT and to the automated test execution is stored in a small database. During the Automated test run you observe that the first 10 test pass, while an abnormal termination occurs when executing the 11thtest. This test does not complete its execution and the overall execution of the suite is aborted. An immediate analysis of the abnormal termination is expected to be time consuming and you have been asked to produce a detailed report of the execution results for the first test run, as soon as possible.

What is the MOST important FIRST step to be taken immediately afterthe abnormal occurred when executing the 11thtest?

A.

Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 12thtest

B.

Return the database to a consistent state that allows subsequent test to run

C.

Take a backup of the database in its current state. So It can be analyzed later

D.

Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 1sttest.
