Which of the following statement about the implementation of automated regression testing is FALSE?

• A.When automating regression tests, the corresponding manual tests should have already been executed to verify they operate correctly
• B.When automating regression tests, the structure of automated tests must always be thesame as the corresponding manual tests
• C.When automating regression tests, consideration should be given to how much time would be saved by automation
• D.When automating regression tests, the initialization steps set the testpreconditions should be automated wherever possible

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

• A.The TAS must consist of components that can be easily replaced without affecting the overall behavior of the TAS itself
• B.The TAS must separate the test scripts from the environment in which it runs and from the associated harnesses and artefacts
• C.The TAS must run in the development environment because development and programming knowledge are required for its maintainability
• D.The TAS must be under configuration management, along with the test suite, the testware artefacts and the test environment in which it runs

Consider a TAS deployed into production. The SUT is a web application and the test suite consists of a set of automated regression tests developed via GUI. A keyword-driven framework has been adopted for automating the regression tests. The tests are based on identification at low-levels of the web page components (e.g class indexes, tab sequence indexes and coordinates) in the next planned release the SUT will be subject to significant corrective maintenance (bug-fixes) and evolution (new features) Maintenance costs to update the test scripts should be as low as possibleand the scripts must be highly reusable.
Which of the following statements is most likely to be TRUE?

• A.False positive errors are likely to occurwhen running the automated tests on the new releases without modifying the test
• B.The keyword-driven framework is not suitable, it would be better to adopt a structured-scripting approach
• C.The total execution time of the automated regression test suite will decrease for each planned release.
• D.The keyword-driven framework introduces a level abstraction that is too high and makes it difficult what really happens

Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.
Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?

• A.Control: the SUT needs to provide interfaces that can be used to perform actions on SUT.
• B.Observability: The SUT needs to provide interface that give insight into the system.
• C.Re-useability: The code written for the SUT must be re-useable for other similar system.
• D.Clearly defined architecture: The SUT Architecture needs to provide clear and understandable interfaces giving control and visibility on all test levels.

You areusing a gTAA to create a TAS for a project. The TAS is aimed specifically at automating a suit of existing manual test cases for standalone desktop applications. All the interfaces between the TAS and SUT will be from the CUI of the application.
Which of the following layers of the gTAA should you focus on for the TAS?

• A.The Test Execution layer
• B.The Test Adaption layer
• C.The Test Definition layer
• D.The test Generation layer
