CTAL-TAE Exam Dumps : ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level, Test Automation Engineering

Consider a TAS associated to dynamically changing software frequent releases. Your goal is to determine the amount of effort required to maintain the automated tests of the regression test suite for each new release of the SUT.

What is the MOST important metric to collect to achieve your goal?

Consider a SUT that small run on multiple platform during the execution of automated test runs. In each test run an automated test suite needs to be executed, with the same version of the TAF, against the same version of the SUT of each platform. Each platform shall have its own dedicated test environment. Your goal is to implement a process as automated as possible ( i.e with minimal manual intervention) that allows implementing a consistent setup of the TAS across the multiple test environments.

Which two of the following aspects are MOST relevant for achieving your goal in this scenario?

The configuration of the TAS uses automated installation scripts

The TAF saves the logs needed to debug errors in XML format

C) Features of the TAF not used by the automated tests have been tested

D) All the automated test cases contain the expected results

E) The TAS components are under configuration management

A TAS is used to run on a test environment a suite of automated regression tests, written at the UI level, on different releases of a web app: all executions complete successfully, always providing correct results (i.e., producing neither false positives nor false negatives). The tests, all independent of each other, consist of executable test scripts based on the flow model pattern which has been implemented in a three-layer TAF (test scripts, business logic, core libraries) by expanding the page object model via the façade pattern. Currently the suite takes too long to run, and the test scripts are considered too long in terms of LOC (Lines of Code). Which of the following recommendations would you provide for improving the TAS (assuming it is possible to perform all of them)?
