Assume you have some data related to confirmation testing during system testing of a past project.

In that project 240 bug reports have been opened once, 80 were opened twice, 10 were opened three times and no bug reports have been opened more than three times.

You estimate that a bug report, which has failed its confirmation test, costs, on average, 3 person-hours.

Which of the following statements correctly describe the value of these confirmatory testing activities based on cost of quality?

Number of correct responses: 1

Which of the following answers describes a factor that may reduce the effort spent when using distributed test teams without negatively affecting system quality?

Number of correct responses: 1

Consider the following list of statements about audits and management reviews:

Audits are usually more effective than management reviews at finding defects

Audits and management reviews have the same main goals, the only difference is related to the roles and level of formality

A typical outcome of an audit includes observations and recommendations, corrective actions and a pass/fail assessment

An audit is not the appropriate mechanism to use at the code review in order to detect defects prior to dynamic testing

Which of the following statements is true?

Assume you are working on a defect management process to be used by a software organization to track the current status of the defects reports for several projects.

When a defect is found for investigation a defect report is created in ''Opened'' state that is the unique initial state. The defect report status has also a unique finale state that is the ''Closed'' state.

The following state transition diagram describes the states of this defect management process:

where only the initial (''Opened'') and final (''Closed'') states are indicated while the remaining states (V, W, X, Y, Z) have yet to be named.

Which of the following assignments would you expect to best complete the defect management process?

Number of correct responses: 1

After a selection process you have selected a test management tool that is going be introduced in your organization and used by your test team in a pilot project.

You have already identified the member of your test team who will be the administrator of the tool, since he/she has a significant experience with the administration of test management tools and so he/she is able to make effective and efficient up-front decisions about "how" the tool will be used. You have also developed a training plan for the other members of your test team.

In collaboration with the administrator of the tool you have also devised standard ways of managing, storing and maintaining the tool and its assets including backup/restore procedures.

You have also analyzed standard formats supported by the tool (CSV, XLS, XML, etc.) to export, import and archive all the information managed by the tool itself (requirements, test case specifications, test plans etc.) for compliance with the most important test management tools, in order to minimize the impacts of migrating this information to a new tool that could replace the existing one in the future.

Which of the following phases in the lifecycle of the new tool has NOT been adequately considered in this description?

Number of correct responses: 1
