Question 71

The teams are two days away from the end of the current iteration. The rate at which users have been reporting defects has been trending upward in the last few weeks and so far during this latest iteration has shown another increase.
The scrum master of the team responsible for most defects has asked you for ideas about how to perform the next retrospective in order to learn the appropriate lessons.
You have suggested that they should provide the retrospective meeting with a breakdown, by nature and severity, of the defects relevant to that team.
Assuming that this is done, which next three steps of the retrospective will be MOST effective?

  • Question 75

    You are the Test Manager on a new project. The schedule is aggressive and will require the team to work at peak efficiency. The requirements are not well defined yet, but it is clear that the project will be using new technologies. To help the developers meet the development schedule, an offshore group will be added to the development team.
    At this time there is not enough budget to add more testing resources. The project stakeholders are very concerned about the quality of the delivered product and will be watching the project closely, particularly during the testing cycles. The exit criteria from the system test level require no open high priority/severity defects, 100% pass rate for all test cases covering risks that are classified as "high" or "very high", 95% pass rate for all "medium" risks and 75% pass rate for all "low" and "very low" risks.
    Given this information, which of the activities of the standard test process are the most critical for the Test Manager to perform? [3]
