In an Agile context, defects are often fixed without writing a formal defect report. However, there are some conditions where it is good practice to write a defect report, even in an Agile context.
When is a defect report typically not written in an Agile context?
In multi-team environments with hybrid software development approaches, there are various challenges in the context of defect management, such as:
i. Alignment of defect attributes to be used
ii. Prioritisation of defects
iii. Alignment of the approach for defect fixes
Solutions to the above-mentioned challenges include:
Which status would typically be assigned to a false-positive defect report during defect management?
Which of the following statements about test management activities for an iterative development model is false?
You are a test manager in charge of integration, system, and acceptance testing for a bank. You are working on a project to upgrade an existing ATM to allow customers to obtain cash advances from supported credit cards. The system should allow cash advances from €20 to €500 (both inclusive) for all supported credit cards. The supported credit cards are American Express, VISA, Eurocard, and Mastercard. The system should be easy to use for all users, including new users.
In the master test plan, the following items are listed in the section named "items and/or features to be tested":
I. All supported credit cards
II. Language localisation
III. Valid and invalid advances
IV. Usability
Assume that the project has now been completed, and the ATM system has been in use for just over two months. You are planning a retrospective meeting for the testing work performed.
Which of the following areas is most likely to be considered in this retrospective?
When reading books and watching recorded videos are used as a way to acquire skills and knowledge, which approach to competence development is typically being used?
You are a tester working in an Agile team in the finance domain. The team consists of 6 members, and you are the only tester. The team is responsible for the development and maintenance of a mobile front-end application. The application is considered to be critical with respect to customer impact and market branding.
You have been asked to identify which test management activity needs to be performed within the team to enhance test maturity and achieve a higher level of product quality.
Which test management activity would you recommend the team should adopt?
Test control uses the information from test monitoring to provide guidance and take corrective action when required.
Which of the following is not a possible test control action?
Which of the following tools help to understand which part of the test object has been exercised by testing?
You are a test manager developing a master test plan. As part of the master test plan, you are defining exit criteria for the various test levels.
Which of the following exit criteria would be most appropriate and SMART for component testing, and which one would be most appropriate and SMART for system testing?
i. 95% of the tests prepared are executed successfully
ii. All test cases have been run
iii. 80% decision coverage for all tests run
iv. At least 30 defects have been found
v. At least two weeks of test execution
vi. No more open defects
You are working as a test manager at a company that develops software applications for the mobile domain. The organisation has recently been assessed against TMMi. This assessment showed that the company is a TMMi level 1 organisation. The projects use the V-model lifecycle and an independent test team exists. The test team consists of both experienced and novice testers. The team has not yet been formally trained in testing, but an ISTQB Foundation course is scheduled to take place in two months.
In your role as a test manager working in the independent test team, you have recently performed a risk assessment for a mobile software application to be developed. You want the features that have been identified as major risks to be tested more thoroughly.
Which test practice would you propose to mitigate the identified major product risks?
Study the following characteristics:
Avoid re-inventing the wheel
Pool on experiences from earlier projects
They prompt thought in areas that are sometimes forgotten
Often used when compliance to specific standards is relevant
To which risk identification technique do these characteristics relate?
Which of the following test stakeholders are most likely not involved in defining requirements?
For which type of testing would a test manager be involved with establishing benchmarks?
