ISTQB CTAL-TM Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Context Analysis:

Heavyweight risk-based techniques involve thorough, detailed analyses to identify and mitigate potential risks comprehensively.

Hazard analysis is a structured method to identify and address risks, commonly used in safety-critical domains.

Evaluation of Options:

A. Systematic software testing:

Incorrect. While methodical, it is not inherently a risk-based technique.

B. Pragmatic risk analysis:

Incorrect. This is a lightweight technique emphasizing practical application over detailed analysis.

C. Brainstorming:

Incorrect. While useful for generating ideas, it is not detailed enough to qualify as heavyweight.

D. Hazard analysis:

Correct. It is a formal and comprehensive approach, qualifying as a heavyweight technique.

Syllabus Alignment:

ISTQB highlights hazard analysis as a detailed, structured risk-based technique (TM-1.3.4).

Estimation Technique Selection:

Extrapolation uses historical data from similar projects to estimate effort for a new one.

Since the current upgrade is 10% larger than the previous one, extrapolation is the most straightforward method.

Evaluation of Options:

A(Function points) focuses on size estimation and is not specific to historical data.

C(Planning poker) andD(Three-point estimation) involve collaborative or probabilistic techniques, not a direct extrapolation.

Bis correct as it directly applies historical project data to estimate effort.

References and Syllabus Alignment:

Effort estimation techniques are covered under "Test Estimation" (TM-2.2.1) in the syllabus​​.
