ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level-Test Automation Engineering Questions and Answers

Question 1

Which of the following statements BEST describe aspects of the SUT to consider when designing a TAA?

Options:

A.

All the interaction between SUT and TAS should belogged with the highest level of detail

B.

All the internal test interfaces of the SUT should be removed prior to the product release

C.

All the interface of the SUT affected by the tests should be controllable by the TAA

D.

All the external test interfaces of the SUT should be removed prior to the product release

Question 2

Which of the following statements does NOT describe good practice for maintaining the TAS?

Options:

A.

The TAS must run in the development environment because development and programming knowledge are required for its maintainability

B.

The TAS must be under configuration management, along with the test suite, the testware artefacts and the test environment in which it runs

C.

The TAS must separate the test scripts fromthe environment in which it runs and from the associated harnesses and artefacts

D.

The TAS must consist of components that can be easily replaced without affecting the overall behavior of the TAS itself

Question 3

Which of the following metrics could suggest, under certain condition that an automated regression test suite has NOT been updated for new functionalities added to the SUT?

Options:

A.

The ratio of comments to executable statements in the SUT code.

B.

The SUT code coverage provided by the execution of the regression test suite.

C.

The defect density in the automation code of the regression test suite.

D.

The ratio of commands to executable statements in the automation code of the regression test suite

Question 4

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?

Options:

A.

Maturity of the test process

B.

Complexity to automate

C.

Frequency of use

D.

Sustainability of the automated environment

Question 5

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?

Options:

A.

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.

B.

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 itsbehavior

C.

Verify the behavior of the whole automated test suite by running all the automated tests

D.

Do not run any tests because you can immediately confirm the correct functioning of the automated test suite

Question 6

Which of the following attributes should NOT be included in a test execution report associated with a suite of automated tests?

Options:

A.

Summary of the test execution results

B.

System/Application under test and its version

C.

Defect clusters identified during test execution

D.

Environment in which the tests have been executed
