Question#1

You are implementing a TAS for a system that has been live for over three years, using a hybrid waterfall and agile lifecycle. Live updates are made on a monthly basis.
There is no test team, with developers designing and executing unit and integration tests with some degree of automation and business analysts designing and executing manual tests at the system level. No formal test process exists, although the system has proved relatively stable for most of the time.
Unfortunately, the last two monthly releases were problematic with regression defects found in production. Your priority is the automation of functional regression tests at the system level, the budget for this has been approved by project stakeholders.
The Business Analysts have identified which test cases are most suitable for regression. You must use the organisation's long standing commercial automation tool which has passed a proof of concept in the platform for the system in question.
Which of the following suitability criteria needs the MOST attention for the TAS?

A. Technical planning in support of ROI analysis
B. Frequency of use.
C. Compatibility and tool support
D. Maturity of the test process

Question#2

You have been asked to implement test automation for a project that is not meeting its deadlines. After further analysis you discover that the manual testers are not able to keep up with the new feature testing because the regression testing is taking 75% of their time. As a result, the new features are being released with many defects and customers are complaining about the quality.
Given this information, what metric SHOULD you be tracking to show the value of test automation for this project?

A. Percentage of code covered by the test automation.
B. Equivalent Manual Test Effort for the automated tests.
C. Number of defects found by test automation.
D. Percentage of builds accepted/rejected by the automated tests.

Question#3

What is the PRIMARY advantage of using abstraction in the TAA?

A. It makes it more flexible for future reuse and improvements
B. It requires a higher skill level to implement
C. It ensures that any scripting method will be supported
D. It improves the performance of the TAS

Question#4

You are evaluating several test modelling tools and are wanting to automatically generate test cases within the tool where many different combinations of input data are created.
You are then wanting to export the test cases into a csv file which can then be read by a functional test execution tool using a data-driven or keyword-driven scripting method.
You have investigated several tools and there is only one tool that provides all the necessary features defined by your team with the exception of the export facility. It does not provide an export into either .xls or .csv formats.
What would be the BEST next step regarding the selection of this tool?

A. Consider another tool that is more “fit for purpose" and has all the features required.
B. Explore the possibility of creating your own export facility.
C. Ask the vendor and use forums to see if a solution is available or going to be available in the future.
D. Purchase this tool and generate the .csv file manually.

Question#5

In order to achieve re-use of a TAS, where SHOULD the design for reuse occur?

A. At the code level
B. At the framework level.
C. At the TAS level
D. At the TAA level
