Question #6

Consider a TAS deployed into production. The SUT is a web application and the test suite consists of a set of automated regression tests developed via GUI. A keyword-driven framework has been adopted for automating the regression tests. The tests are based on identification at low-levels of the web page components (e.g class indexes, tab sequence indexes and coordinates) in the next planned release the SUT will be subject to significant corrective maintenance (bug-fixes) and evolution (new features) Maintenance costs to update the test scripts should be as low as possibleand the scripts must be highly reusable.
Which of the following statements is most likely to be TRUE?

A. The keyword-driven framework introduces a level abstraction that is too high and makes it difficult what really happens

B. False positive errors are likely to occurwhen running the automated tests on the new releases without modifying the test

C. The total execution time of the automated regression test suite will decrease for each planned release.

D. The keyword-driven framework is not suitable, it would be better to adopt a structured-scripting approach

Question #7

The GUI of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application has been delivered through internet Explorer with proprietary Active X and Java controls. This implementation enables rich client capabilities, but specific commercial automation tools are necessary to automate test cases at GUI of functional test cases. This is to demonstrate whether a small set of the commercial are able to properly recognize actions takenby a tester when interacting with GUI of the CRM application.
Which of the following scripting techniques would be MOST suitable in this scenario?

A. Data-driven scripting

B. Linear scripting

C. Keyword-driven scripting

D. Structure scripting

Question #8

Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.
Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?

A. Control: the SUT needs to provide interfaces that can be used to perform actions on SUT.

B. Re-useability: The code written for the SUT must be re-useable for other similar system.

C. Clearly defined architecture: The SUT Architecture needs to provide clear and understandable interfaces giving control and visibility on all test levels.

D. Observability: The SUT needs to provide interface that give insight into the system.

C. A is and external TAS metric and b is an internal TAS metric

Question #10

A project consists of distributed teams working in a 24-hour environment, where activities happen at all hours of the day. This project adopts a CI (Continuous Integration) process when developer check-in code and consists of automated activities that include generating a build and deploying it to a test environment.
Automated integration tests are run multiple times a day. The project have asked for a report containing the automation test results for every build, which must be available 24/7 to the project team.
Which of the following would be the BEST way to automatically provides this report?

A. Store the execution result of the integration testsfor the last build to a database (overwriting the results from the previous build), automatically create a test execution report for this build send It via e-mail to the project team

B. Store the execution results of the integration tests for the last build to a database (without overwriting the results from the previous builds). Automatically create a test execution report for this build and send it via e-mail to the project team

C. Store the code coverage results of the integration tests for the last build to a database (without overwriting the results from the previous builds). And automatically create a chart showing the trend in code coverage and send via email to the project team.

D. Store the execution results of the integration tests for the last build to adatabase (without overwriting the results from the previous builds), use this database to automatically update a dashboard containing the build history and test results accessible to the project team.
