NEW QUESTION 44
You are working on a project to develop an authentication system for an e-commerce website. This system provides two features: Registration and authentication. Two different development teams develop these two features.
There is a high likelihood that the delivery of the authentication feature to the test team will be three weeks later. To complete the registration the user must provide the following registration inputs: Name, surname, birth date, fiscal code and he/she can select a username and a password.
A registered user can be a special user or a normal user. To be identified as a special user, he/she must also provide, during the registration process, a voucher possibly received from the IT department.
Access is granted only if a user is registered and the password is correct: In all other cases access is denied. If the registered user is a special user and the password is wrong, a special warning is shown on the system console.
You are currently performing a quality risk analysis using FMEA.
Based only on the given information, which of the following is NOT a product risk that could be identified during the quality risk analysis?

Test Tools and Automation
Assume you are the Test Manager in charge of independent testing for avionics applications.
You are in charge of testing for a project to implement three different CSCI (Computer Software Configuration Item):
- a BOOT-X CSCI that must be certified at level B of the DO-178B standard
- a DIAG-X CSCI that must be certified at level C of the DO-178B standard
- a DRIV-X CSCI that must be certified at level A of the DO-178B standard These are three different software modules written in C language to run on a specific hardware platform.
You have been asked to select a single code coverage tool to perform the mandatory code coverage measurements, in order to meet the structural coverage criteria prescribed by the DO-178B standard. This tool must be qualified as a verification tool under DO-178B.
Since there are significant budget constraints to purchase this tool, you are evaluating an open-source tool that is able to provide different types of code coverage. This tool meets perfectly your technical needs in terms of the programming language and the specific hardware platform (it supports also the specific C-compiler).
The source code of the tool is available.
Your team could easily customize the tool to meet the project needs. This tool is not qualified as a verification tool under the DO-178B.
Which of the following are the three main concerns related to that open-source tool selection?
Number of correct responses: 3
K4 3 credits (2 credits out of 3 credits correct, 1 credit point)

In the next two months some new features will be constantly added to new releases of a project you are working on as Test Manager.
You have identified as one of the main project risks, that the requirements specification will still be incomplete when your team starts the test design and implementation phase.
Some requirements will most likely be completed too late to allow a proper test preparation.
You and your test team have already worked on several similar past projects in the same organization.
Which one of the following options would you expect to be the most effective at mitigating this risk?
- A. Even if there are only few details missing, escalate the risk to the project manager without preparing any tests
- B. Make reasonable assumptions about the missing details and design lightweight tests that can be easily updated during test execution
- C. Don't design any test until the test execution starts, then communicate that test execution is blocked due to incomplete requirements
- D. Don't prepare any test and just run the regression test suite to check that the new features don't introduce regression
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION 51
Test Management
You are the Test Manager on a project following an iterative life-cycle model. The project should consist of nine iterations of one month duration each. It is planned to develop the most important features to have a stable core of the application in the first three iterations and to add the additional features in the last six iterations.
At the beginning of the first iteration, only a draft version of the requirements specification document for the core features is available. Assume that during each of the first three iterations, the chosen features are fully completed and unit tested.
Which of the following statements is true in this context?
- A. You should allocate all the effort for the system test phase only in the last iteration
- B. The system test phase should start when all the requirements are frozen

NEW QUESTION 52
Reviews
You are a Test Manager working for a software organization where reviews have never been applied. After a meeting with your managers examining a business case for reviews, (including their costs, benefits, and potential issues), the management finally decides to adopt formal reviews for future projects.
You have been given a budget that you have spent to provide training in the review process and to introduce the review process on a pilot project.
On that pilot project the introduction of reviews has been very positive in terms of positive involvement from all the participants. All the reviews applied to different documents have been very effective for their purposes (especially at revealing defects).
Which of the following answers describes an important success factor for the introduction of formal reviews which is missing in this scenario?
- A. Definition and use of metrics to measure the ROI (Return On Investment)
- B. Management support
- C. Training in the review process
- D. Participant support
