Question 3

You are Test Manager working on a project which is improving the user interface for its call center staff

handling customer enquiries. The project has completed UAT for the first iteration; however, a large number of

defects were raised by call center staff seconded to help with the User Acceptance testing.

The defects described the user interface as not being intuitive enough with a poor ‘help’ facility. A user

representative spent a week working with developers and system testers to explain the issues, which were

subsequently agreed to have resulted from poorly specified usability requirements.

The requirements were defined separately for each iteration and have been formally reviewed by business

analysts, developers and the IT director.

The user representative was also able to answer a number of other questions that the system test team had

regarding call center workflows, which improved their domain knowledge.

You have been asked to conduct a project retrospective and recommend improvements for the next iteration

which introduces further user interface changes. Which of the following would be the MOST effective

improvement for the next iteration?

Options :

A :

System test analysts to attend external training on usability testing techniques.

B :

System test cases to incorporate usability testing and be reviewed by a call centre user representative.

C :

Call centre representatives to participate in reviews of the user interface requirements.

D :

A call centre user representative to be seconded to the system test team to help improve test design.

Answer: B

Question 4

You have done a comprehensive risk analysis. You have involved the appropriate people in assessing the risks and determining the likelihood and impact of those risks. You have been testing for three months and have been able to mitigate 75% of the high risk items. You have two weeks left in testing and you now do not expect to be able to complete all the items on the high-risk mitigation list, never mind any from the medium or low-risk lists. What is the most effective action you should take?

Options :

A :

Use a random selection algorithm to pick tests from the high, medium, and low risk mitigation lists - thereby ensuring that each risk list has some mitigation.

B :

Present your risk mitigation progress and project status to the project's stakeholders, and request additional time or assistance in re-prioritizing the remaining high-risk items.

C : Concentrate testing in areas that have already found numerous problems.

D : Retest the highest risk areas to ensure no regressions have occurred.

Answer: B

Question 5

Which of the following is a characteristic of good testing in any life cycle model? 1 credit

Options :

A : Analysis and design of tests begins as soon as development is completed.

B : Some, but not all, development activities have corresponding test activities.

C : Each test level has test objectives specific to that level.

D : All document reviews involve the development team.
