NEW QUESTION # 42
Your functional regression test automation suite ran successfully for the first two sprints and no failures were encountered during the runs. The automation suite records the status of each test case as either 'pass' or 'fail' and has excellent recovery capability built in.
For the third sprint, the TAS log reported several test cases with a status of 'fail'. You investigated each test case and found that most failures were due to a defect in one of the keyword scripts, rather than in the SUT. For those where the failure was in the SUT, defect reports were raised but several were returned by the developers asking for more information to enable them to reproduce the problem.
Which additional log items SHOULD you add to the TAS that would BEST improve failure analysis and defect reporting for future sprints?
a) Dynamic measurement information about the SUT.
b) A status of TAS error', in additional to pass' and 'fail', for each test case.
c) Use of a colour coding scheme so that 'pass' is in red and fail' is in green.
d) A counter to determine how many times each test case has been executed.
e) System configuration information including software/firmware and operating system versions.
f) A copy of the source code for all Keyword scripts executed.
- A. b and e
- B. d and e
- C. a and b
- D. a and c
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION # 43

Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 44
Which of the following CORRECTLY describes how automation SHOULD be applied to confirmation testing?
- A. Confirmation tests are not good candidates for automation as they are not designed to run many times
- B. Confirmation tests can be automated and incorporated into an automated regression suite to show whether defects that were previously fixed reoccur
- C. A confirmation test should only be automated after it has been run manually
- D. Confirmation tests should only be automated if they fail to pass on the first attempt
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION # 45
You are evaluating several test modelling tools and are wanting to automatically generate test cases within the tool where many different combinations of input data are created.
You are then wanting to export the test cases into a csv file which can then be read by a functional test execution tool using a data-driven or keyword-driven scripting method.
You have investigated several tools and there is only one tool that provides all the necessary features defined by your team with the exception of the export facility. It does not provide an export into either .xls or .csv formats.
What would be the BEST next step regarding the selection of this tool?
- A. Consider another tool that is more "fit for purpose" and has all the features required.
- B. Explore the possibility of creating your own export facility.
- C. Purchase this tool and generate the .csv file manually.

NEW QUESTION # 55
You are implementing a TAS for a system that has been live for over three years, using a hybrid waterfall and agile lifecycle. Live updates are made on a monthly basis.
There is no test team, with developers designing and executing unit and integration tests with some degree of automation and business analysts designing and executing manual tests at the system level. No formal test process exists, although the system has proved relatively stable for most of the time.
Unfortunately, the last two monthly releases were problematic with regression defects found in production. Your priority is the automation of functional regression tests at the system level, the budget for this has been approved by project stakeholders.
The Business Analysts have identified which test cases are most suitable for regression. You must use the organisation's long standing commercial automation tool which has passed a proof of concept in the platform for the system in question.
Which of the following suitability criteria needs the MOST attention for the TAS?
- A. Technical planning in support of ROI analysis
- B. Maturity of the test process
- C. Frequency of use.
- D. Compatibility and tool support
Answer: D
NEW QUESTION # 56
Consider a TAS associated to dynamically changing software frequent releases. Your goal is to determine the amount of effort 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 number of automated tests which fail because of a single software defect, for each new release of the SUT
- B. The time it takes to execute all the automated tests, for each new release of the SUT.
- C. The number of automated tests requiring maintenance, for each new release of the SUT.
- D. The code coverage achieved with the automated tests, for each new release of the SUT
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 57
A TAS uses a commercial test automation tool and the default logs generated by the inconsistent formats such as different types of messages (pass/fail steps, screenshots, warnings, etc.) To solve this issue some custom logging functions have been created from the test scripts, making it possible to log the different types of messages with the same format. However, this may cause a problem due to excessive size of the logs which can make it difficult to find the required information. Assume that all the default logs will be disabled when running the automated tests and that some tests will not generate excessively sized logs.
Which of the following represents the BEST suggestion for implementing the custom logging functions?
- A. Implement the custom logging functions to support different levels of tracing
- B. Implement the custom logging functions to redirect the logs to multiple files
- C. Implement the custom logging functions without saving stack traces
- D. Implement the custom logging functions without saving timestamps
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 58
Your TAS has been running successfully on a Windows/GUI based SUT for some years. The SUT has undergone minimal change over the years to maintain business as usual, deploying six-monthly releases for minor enhancements and bug fixes using a waterfall lifecycle.
The TAS has not changed at all during this period. The current project for the SUT will be using the Scrum methodology to deliver a more modern, competitive, user interface. It is in the release planning stage with an agreed release backlog and set of sprints outlined.
The move from lengthy waterfall releases to shorter sprints has led you to conduct a review of the current TAS to make sure it is robust and fully optimised for the timescale challenges of the new project.
What two steps would be BEST to undertake during the review?
a) Ensure that new automation code is using the same naming conventions as existing code.
b) Perform a full regression run in Sprint 1 to identify what improvements could be made to the TAS for future sprints.
c) Ensure that the TAS is using the latest libraries for the operating system.
d) Review the functions that act upon the controls for the GUI for possible consolidation.
e) Involve the test team to see what ease-of-use improvements they would like to see made to the TAS.
- A. a and b
- B. d and e
- C. b and c
- D. c and d
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 59
Which of the following success factors for a test automation project is TRUE?
- A. The test cases to be automated must have a high dependency on particular data values
- 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. Automated tests that fail due to changes in the requirements of the SUT should be promptly fixed rather than disabled from the test suite
- D. Automated tests must be designed to capture only the data that is strictly needed for comparing expected and actual results
Answer: C
