Consider an agile team adopting Extreme Programming (XP) with five developers and one tester without any coding experience.
To which of the following activities would you expect the tester will contribute most?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A. Supporting the customer in the execution of acceptance testing
• B. Executing unit tests
• C. Developing unit tests
• D. Planning and executing tests during the integration test phase to detect interface defects

Consider the following list of statements about audits and management reviews:
I. Audits are usually more effective than management reviews at finding defects
II. Audits and management reviews have the same main goals, the only difference is related to the roles and level of formality
III. A typical outcome of an audit includes observations and recommendations, corrective actions and a pass/fail assessment
IV. An audit is not the appropriate mechanism to use at the code review in order to detect defects prior to dynamic testing
Which of the following statements is true?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A. I, III and IV are true; II. is false;
• B. I. and III. are true; II. and IV. are false;
• C. II. and III are true; I. and IV. are false;
• D. III. and IV. are true; I and II are false;

The following are the exit criteria described in the test plan of a software product:
EX1. The test suite for the product must ensure that at least each quality risk item is covered by at least one test case
(a quality risk item can be covered by more test cases).
EX2. All test cases in the test suite must be run during the execution phase.
EX3. Defects are classified into two categories: "C" (critical defect) and "NC" (non-critical defect). No known C defects shall exist in the product at the end of the test execution phase.
Which of the following information is useless when the specified exit criteria is evaluated?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A. A traceability matrix showing the relationships between the product risk items and the test cases
• B. A chart, showing the trend in the lag time from defect reporting to resolution, extracted from the defect tracking system
• C. The execution status of all the test cases extracted from the test management tool
• D. A list of all the open defects with the associated classification information extracted from the defect tracking system

You are the Test Manager of a project that adopts a V-model with four formal levels of testing: unit, integration, system and acceptance testing.
On this project reviews have been conducted for each development phase prior to testing, which is to say that reviews of requirements, functional specification, high-level design, low-level design and code have been performed prior to testing.
Assume that no requirements defects have been reported after the release of the product.
Which TWO of the following metrics do you need in order to evaluate the requirements reviews in terms of phase containment effectiveness?
Number of correct responses: 2

• A. Number of defects found during the requirements review
• B. Total number of defects found during functional specification review, high-level design review, low-level design review, code review, unit testing, integration testing, system testing and acceptance testing
• C. Time to conduct the requirements review
• D. Total number of defects attributable to requirements found during unit, integration, system and acceptance testing
• E. Total number of defects attributable to requirements, found during functional specification review, high-level design review, low-level design review, code review, unit testing, integration testing, system testing and acceptance testing
