Topic 1, Scenario 1 “Medical Domain”
You are working as a test manager in the medical domain leading a team of system testers. You
are currently working on a major release of the product which gives customers many new features
and resolves a number of problem reports from previous releases.
******************************

You are about to release a test progress report to a senior manager, who is not a test specialist.
Which of the following topics should NOT be included in the test progress report?

******************************
Explain how the above mentioned report may differ from a report that you produce for the project
manager, who is a test specialist Select TWO items from the following options that can be used to
report to the project manager and would not be included in a report to senior management.

Topic 1, Scenario 1 “Medical Domain”
You are working as a test manager in the medical domain leading a team of system testers. You
are currently working on a major release of the product which gives customers many new features
and resolves a number of problem reports from previous releases.
******************************
You have been given responsibility for the non-functional testing of a safety-critical monitoring &
diagnostics package in the medical area. Which of the following would you least expect to see
addressed in the test plan?

You are working as a test manager in the medical domain leading a team of system testers. You
are currently working on a major release of the product which gives customers many new features
and resolves a number of problem reports from previous releases.
******************************
Since the system is in the medical domain and therefore in the safety critical area, testing needs to
be rigorous and evidence is required that the system has been adequately tested. Identify THREE
measures that would typically be part of the test approach in this domain and which are not always
applicable in other domains!

******************************
A test log is one of the documents that need to be produced in this domain in order to provide
evidence of testing. However, the level of detail of test logs can vary. Which of the following is
NOT an influencing factor for the level of detail of the test logs being produced?

******************************
Considerable attention will be given in this project to defining exit criteria and on reporting back on
their status. Which combination of TWO exit criteria from the list would be best to use?
I. Total number of defects found
II. Percentage of test cases executed
III. Total test effort planned versus total actual test effort spent
IV. Defect trend (number of defects found per test run over time

Topic 3, Scenario 3 “Tool Selection and Implementation”
Your company is considering whether or not to purchase a test tool suite from a respectable
vendor. Your manager has searched the internet for comparable products but none of them meets
his specific requirements. A tool demonstration has been arranged for next week and your team
has been invited to attend. The tool suite consists of a test management tool, test execution tool
and a requirements management tool. There is the possibility of adding a performance testing tool
at a later stage. You have decided to attend the demo but raise some issues beforehand regarding expectations.
**********************************

Select THREE issues from the options provided that should at least be raised.

Topic 2, Scenario 2 “Reviews”
A software development organization wants to introduce some specific improvements to its test
process. Currently, most of their testing resources are focussedon system testing. They are
developing embedded software, and do not have a simulation environment to enable them to
execute software modules on the development host. They have been advised that introducing
inspections and reviews could be the most appropriate step forward.
