Question 1

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?

Options:

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.

Question 2

Consider thefollowing example of TAS metrics.

Time to execute automated tests

Speed and efficiency of TAS components

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

Options:

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

Question 3

Consider the following layers of the gTAA structure:

a. Test generation layer

b. Test definition layer

c. Test execution layer

d. Test execution layer

Consider the following capabilities associated with these layers.

Acquire all thenecessary resources before each test and release all after run, in order to avoid interdependences between test

Allow the automated test scripts on an abstract level to interact with components, configurations and interfaces of the SUT.

Design test directives that allow configuring the algorithms used to automatically produce the test cases a given model of the SUT.

Allow the definition and implementation of test cases and data by means of templates and/or guidelines.

Which of the following BEST matches each layer with the appropriate capability?

Options:

A.

a-3, b-4, c-1, d-2

B.

a-4, b-3, c-1, d-2

C.

a-4, b-3, c-2, d-1

D.

a-3, b-4, c-2, d-1

Question 4

Youare using a gTAA to create a TAS for a project. The TAS is aimed specifically at automating a suit of existing manual test cases for standalone desktop applications. All the interfaces between the TAS and SUT will be from the CUI of the application.

Whichof the following layers of the gTAA should you focus on for the TAS?

Options:

A.

The test Generation layer

B.

The Test Definition layer

C.

The Test Adaption layer

D.

The Test Execution layer

Question 5

Your goal is to verify completeness, consistency and correct behavior of an automated test suite. The TAS has been proven to successfully install in the SUTenvironment. All the preliminary checks to verify the correct functioning of the automated test environment and test tool configuration, installation and setup have successfully completed.

Which of the following is NOT a relevant check for achieving your goal in this scenario?

Options:

A.

Checking whether all the test cases contain the expected results

B.

Checking whether the post condition have been fulfilled for all the test cases

C.

Checking whether the loading of the TAS is repeatable in the SUT environment

D.

Checking whether all the test cases produce repeatable outcomes

Question 6

Consider a TAS that isgoing 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 othertarget

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 wouldyou expect to be MOST effective at mitigating the risk associated with the first deployment of the TAS?

Options:

A.

Testing the TAS for application compatibility issues in the target environment

B.

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

C.

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

D.

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