Consider the following test strategies:
I. Consultative test strategy
II. Reactive test strategy
III. Analytical test strategy
IV. Process-compliant test strategy
Consider also the following examples of test activities:
1. Prioritize the test cases, based on the results of a FMEA analysis, to ensure early coverage of the most important areas and discovery of the most important defects during test execution
2. Execute usability testing driven by the guidance of a sample of users (external to the test team)
3. Perform exploratory testing sessions throughout the system test phase
4. On an Agile project, execute tests that cover the test conditions identified for each user story of a feature planned for an iteration
Which of the following correctly matches each test strategy with an appropriate example?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.I-3; II-2; III-1; IV-4
• B.I-2; II-3; III-4; IV-1
• C.I-1; II-2; III-3; IV-4
• D.I-2; II-3; III-1; IV-4

Assume you are currently working on a project developing a system where functional requirements are very well specified. Unfortunately non-functional requirements do almost not exist.
You are the Test Manager. You have to choose a technique for test selection that allows testing of non-functional characteristics, especially reliability.
Which of the following techniques for test selection do you expect being most useful in this scenario?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Ambiguity reviews
• B.Test condition analysis
• C.Cause-effect graphing
• D.A model-based technique based on the creation of operational profiles

In your organization the following tools of the same vendor are currently in use: a requirements management tool, a test management tool and a bug tracking tool.
You are the Test Manager.
You are currently evaluating a test automation tool of the same vendor (to complete the vendor's tool suite) against an interesting open-source test automation tool under the GNU GPL (General Public License).
There are no initial costs associated to that open-source tool.
Which of the following statements associated to the selection of the open-source tool is correct in this scenario?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.There are no initial costs for the open-source tool because open-source tools are usually low-quality, while vendor tools have always a better quality than the corresponding open-source tools
• B.The open-source tool can be modified but it can't be distributed further in any way
• C.There are no initial costs for the open-source tool but you should carefully consider the costs associated to the integration with the existing tools and also evaluate the recurring costs
• D.The open-source tool can be modified but only if the community of developers of that tool gives you the formal permission to modify it

For which of the following activities would the costs be classified as a cost of detection?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Training developers to better understand the new features of the coding language they will use on the project
• B.Fixing field failures
• C.Re-running a test case, during the system testing phase, to verify that a fix eliminates a previously found defect
• D.Writing test specifications according to the test design

You are a Test Manager working for a software organization where reviews have never been applied. After a meeting with your managers examining a business case for reviews, (including their costs, benefits, and potential issues), the management finally decides to adopt formal reviews for future projects.
You have been given a budget that you have spent to provide training in the review process and to introduce the review process on a pilot project.
On that pilot project the introduction of reviews has been very positive in terms of positive involvement from all the participants. All the reviews applied to different documents have been very effective for their purposes (especially at revealing defects).
Which of the following answers describes an important success factor for the introduction of formal reviews which is missing in this scenario?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Management support
• B.Participant support
• C.Training in the review process
• D.Definition and use of metrics to measure the ROI (Return On Investment)
