B. Acceptance testing to verify operational requirements

C. Requirements testing as part of testing regulatory compliance

D. Another system test cycle to verify defect resolution

A test assessment has been carried out using the selected model as a reference framework. A number of recommendations have been identified and you are asked to prioritize them. Based on your knowledge of the project, you are expecting severe resistance to change.

A. Synchronized with the overall long-term organizational strategy

B. Defined according to the maturity model used

C. Most visible to stakeholders

D. Low costs actions first

Which of the following is a valid drawback of independent testing?

A. Developer and independent testing will overlap and waste resources.

B. Developers loose the sense of responsibility and independent testers may become a bottleneck.

C. Independent testers need extra education and always cost more.

D. Independent testers will become a bottleneck and introduce problems in incident management.

Which of the following would be the TWO most appropriate examples of entry criteria documented in the system integration test plan?

A. The percentage of decision coverage achieved during unit testing.

B. The availability of the latest version of the capture-replay tool (for testing the interface with the newly developed test management tool).

C. The sign-off of a performance test software release note (test item transmittal report) by both development and testing showing that system performance meets the specified acceptance criteria.

D. The percentage of acceptance test procedures scheduled for execution.

E. The percentage of requirements coverage achieved during system integration test.

B. Test execution tool

C. Static analysis tool

D. Test design tool

What is the main reason why reviews are especially beneficial in the above-mentioned scenario?

A. They ensure a common understanding of the product.

B. They find defects early.

C. They enhance project communication.

D. They can be performed without exercising the code.

Since the system is in the medical domain and therefore in the safety critical area, testing needs to be rigorous and evidence is required that the system has been adequately tested. Identify THREE measures that would typically be part of the test approach in this domain and which are not always applicable in other domains!

B. Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) sessions

C. Traceability to requirements

D. Non-functional testing

E. Master test planning

F. Test design techniques

G. Reviews

B. Test level

C. Regulatory requirements

D. Experience level of testers
