For which of the following activities in the fundamental test process would an incident management tool be most useful?
Answer(s): C
Incident management tools are most useful during test implementation and execution as this is the stage at which the tool is used to raise, manage, retest and close incidents. The data collected during the defect life cycle can then be manipulated into information that is useful for other activities within the fundamental test process. Information on numbers of defects outstanding may be useful for evaluating exit criteria (option (D)). This information could also be used for planning future testing and for taking control (option (A)). Incident management tools can also assist in test analysis and design (option (B)) as information about defects found when testing the previous release of the system could be used when analyzing the type of testing required for the next enhancement.
Which of the following defects is most likely to be found by a test harness?
Answer(s): B
Variance from programming standards defects (option (A)) are found during the review or static testing process. Therefore a test harness is unlikely to find a defect in programming standards. Memory leak defects (option (C)) could potentially be found by a test harness designed to run many test cases.Regression defects (option (D)) could be found using many types of test tool. Defects in middleware (option (B)) are generally more likely to be found by a test harness or a dynamic analysis tool than by any other type of tool.
A test management tool is most likely to integrate with which of the following tools?
Answer(s): D
Requirements management tools (option (D)) often have interfaces with test management tools. In some cases they will be sold as a package or in other cases a test management tool may have its own requirements module. The use of such interfaces or integrated packages aids traceability from requirements through to test scripts and defects.Performance management tools (option (A)), test data preparation tools (option (B)) and static analysis tools (option (C)) are unlikely to have an interface or be integrated with a test management tool. They serve different purposes and therefore there is little need for such interfaces.
Which of the following are aids to good communication, and which hinder it?i). Try to understand how the other person feels.ii). Communicate personal feelings, concentrating upon individuals.iii). Confirm the other person has understood what you have said and vice versa.iv). Emphasize the common goal of better quality.
Which pair of definitions is correct?
Regression testing is testing that nothing has regressed. Retesting (or confirmation testing) confirms the fix is correct by running the same test after the fix has been made. No other option has both of these as true.
