NEW QUESTION 22
You are currently designing the TAA of a TAS. You have been asked to adopt an approach forautomatically generating and executing test cases from a model that defines the SUT. The SUT is a state-based and event-driven that is described by a finite-state machine and exposes its functionality via an API. The behavior of the SUT depends on hardwareand communication links that can be unreliable.
Which of the following aspects is MOST important when designing the TAA in this scenario?

  • A. Adopting a test definition strategy based on use case/exception case coverage for the definition layer.
  • B. Looking for tools that allows direct denoting of exceptions and actions depending on the SUT events.
  • C. Adopting a test definition strategy based on classification tree coverage for the test definition layer.
  • D. Looking for tools that allow performing setup and teardown of the test suites and the SUT.

Answer: D

 

NEW QUESTION 23
Assume that you are the TAE responsible for the correct functioning of a TAS, deployed in a test environment that consists of a few machines running the same version of the operating system. The TAS has been working and stable since its deployment, it has been used to run an automated test suite consisting of many similar automated test. The infrastructure team is planning to update the operating system on these machines by installing a new the service pack for security reasons. Since the vendor of the operating system assurance full backward compatibility, the infrastructure team assurance that there will be no impacts on the functioning of the TAS.
What is the BEST approach to confirm the correct functioning of the TAS in this scenario?

  • A. Do not run any tests because you can immediately confirm the correct functioning of the automated test suite
  • B. Verify the behavior of the automated tests by running a small tests, then gradually run the remaining tests to confirm the correct functioning of the whole automated test suite.
  • C. Make sure that the infrastructure team has completed installing the service pack on the machines where SUT is running, then run the whole automated test suite to verify its behavior
  • D. Verify the behavior of the whole automated test suite by running all the automated tests

Answer: B

 

NEW QUESTION 24
Consider the following layers of the gTAA structure:
a. Test generation layer
b. Test definition layer
c. Test execution layer
d. Test execution layer

NEW QUESTION 25
You are executing the first test run of a test automation suite of 200 tests. All the relevant information related to the state of the SUT and to the automated test execution is stored in a small database. During the Automated test run you observe that the first 10 test pass, while an abnormal termination occurs when executing the
11thtest. This test does not complete its execution and the overall execution of the suite is aborted. An immediate analysis of the abnormal termination is expected to be time consuming and you have been asked to produce a detailed report of the execution results for the first test run, as soon as possible.
What is the MOST important FIRST step to be taken immediately afterthe abnormal occurred when executing the 11thtest?

  • A. Take a backup of the database in its current state. So It can be analyzed later
  • B. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 1sttest.
  • C. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 12thtest
  • D. Return the database to a consistent state that allows subsequent test to run

Answer: A

 

NEW QUESTION 26
Consider a TAS that exclusively uses the APIs of a SUT. To make this work, significant changes have been required to the SUT by adding a set of dedicated test interfaces to the APIs. All the automated tests will use these test interfaces when interacting with the SUT. Assume that you are currently verifying the correctness of the automated test environment and test tool setup.
Which of the following would you expect to be the MOST specific risk associated with this scenario?

  • A. False alarms, that are unlikely to occur in the real world, will be observed during testing
  • B. The connectivity from the TAS to the dedicatedtest interfaces will not work
  • C. The process of configuring the TAS will be error-phone due to manual intervention
  • D. The automated test cases will not contain the expected result

Answer: A

 

NEW QUESTION 27
What is NOT a factor in considering when you are asked to ensure an effective transition from manual to automated tests?

  • B. The look and feel of the SUT
  • C. Correctness of test data and test cases
  • D. The controllability of the SUT

Answer: B

 

NEW QUESTION 28
A web application was released into production one year ago, it has regular release which follow a V-model lifecycle and testing is well-established and fully integration into the development lifecycle. You have been asked to implement a TAS for the regression test suite. The regression tests have been developed via the GUI and are expected to be run at least four times a month, for each planned release, for the whole operation solution life of the system (six years). Each screen of the GUI uses several third-party controls which are not compatible with the existing automation solutions. The environment for the automation will be stable, fully controllable and separated from other environments (development, staging, production).
What could be the MOST problematic for this TAS?

  • A. Complexity to automate
  • B. Sustainability of the automated environment
  • C. Frequency of use
  • D. Maturity of the test process

Answer: B

 

NEW QUESTION 29
As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within yourorganization. The projects require that tool to work effectively and efficiently with SUT's in distributed environments. The test automated tool also needs to interface with other existing test tools (test management tool and defect tracking tool.) The existing test tools subject to planned updates and their interface to the test automated tool may not work property after these updates.
Which of the following are the two LEAST important concerns related to the evaluation of the test automation in this scenario?
* Is the test automation tool able to launch processors and execute test cases on multiple machines in different environments?
* Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different sets?
* Does the testautomation tool have a large feature set, but only part of the features will be sets?
* Do the release notes for the planned updates on existing specify the impacts on their interfaces to other tools?
Does the test automation tool need to install specific libraries that could impact the SUT?

  • A. A and E
