The following are the exit criteria described in the test plan of a software product:
EX1. The test suite for the product must ensure that at least each quality risk item is covered by at
least one test case (a quality risk item can be covered by more test cases).
EX2. All test cases in the test suite must be run during the execution phase.
EX3. Defects are classified into two categories: “C” (critical defect) and “NC” (non-critical defect).
No known C defects shall exist in the product at the end of the test execution phase.
Which of the following information is useless when the specified exit criteria is evaluated?

Which of the following is an example of the test closure activity indicated as “lessons learned”?

Assume that you are the Test Manager for a small banking application development project.
You have decided to adopt a risk-based testing strategy and 5 product risks (R1, R2, R3, R4, and
R5) have been identified during the quality risk analysis.
The following table shows the risk level associated to these product risks (higher numbers mean
higher risk):

55 test cases have been designed and implemented to cover all these 5 product risks. The
coverage is described in a traceability matrix.

This is the test execution status table, after the after the first week of test execution:
About 56% of the planned test cases have been successfully executed.
Assume that no additional product risks have been identified during the first week of test execution.

Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the residual risks associated
with the identified product risks, at the end of the first week of test execution?

You are the Test Manager for a project to develop a client-server application that allows wine
vendors to order custom-assorted packages of wines of several winemakers to sell special
packages in their wine shops.

You decide to apply a blended risk-based and reactive testing strategy. Below the exit criteria for
the system testinG.
EXCR1- Each “critical” quality risk item must be covered by at least one test condition
EXCR2- Each “critical” requirement must be covered by at least one test condition
The following are the “critical” requirements of the application:
REQ-SEL-1. The application shall allow the user to order only one package at a time
REQ-SEL-2. The application shall allow the user to select between four different packages (2-bottles, 6-bottles, 12-bottles, 15-bottles)
REQ-SEL-3. The application shall allow the user to order a package containing at least 1 bottle
and no more bottles than the package size. No error messages shall be displayed if the user
selects a valid number of bottles (at least 1 bottle and no more than the package size)
REQ-SEL-4. The application shall display an error message “Invalid number of bottles” if an invalid
number of bottles is selected by the user (zero bottles or a number higher than the package size)
REQ-PAY-1. The application shall allow the user to pay with the three accepted credit cards (Visa,
MasterCard, American Express)
REQ-PAY-2. The application shall display an error message “Invalid credit card” if invalid credit
card data are given by the user
QUSTION NO: 11
The following is the unique “critical” quality risk item that has been identified:
CR-RSK-1. The GUI of the application might accept non-integer values for the input field designed
to get the number of bottles from the user
Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been
identifieD.
TC-SEL-2. Test the selection of the package sizes
TC-SEL-4. Test wrong numbers of bottles for an order
TC-CR-RSK-1. Test the accepted values from the input field designed to get the number of bottles
from the user
Assume that you have used traceability to determine the logical test cases that cover all the
requirements and the single risk item identified in that scenario.

Which of the following is a positive logical test that is complete and correct, and covers the REQSEL-4 requirement?

The following are the requirements identified as “critical”:
REQ-SEL-001. The user shall be able to combine all the three products with all the four durations
to define an item to purchase
REQ-SEL-002. The user shall be able to add a maximum of six different items to the shopping cart
REQ-PUR-001. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using a credit
voucher
REQ-PUR-002. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using the
available credit already charged on the smartcard
REQ-PUR-003. The user shall be able to purchase all the items in the shopping cart using all the
accepted credit cards (Visa, MasterCard and Great Wall Card)
REG-LOGO-001. The user shall be able to logout (by clicking the logout button) from both the
“select” and “purchase” pages going back to the “browse” page (anonymous navigation)
Moreover the following quality risk item has been identified as “critical”:
QR-P1. The web customer portal might not be able to provide the expected response time (less
than 10 sec) for the purchase transactions under a load of up-to 1000 concurrent users

Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been
identifieD.
TC-SEL-01. Test the combinations of products and durations to define an item to purchase
TC-SEL-02. Test the maximum number of items, which can be added to the shopping cart
TC-PUR-01. Test the purchase of an item
TC-PUR-02. Test the purchase of an item with the credit charged on the smartcard
What is the MINIMUM number of test conditions that must be added to fulfill both the EXCR1 and
EXCR2 exit criteria?

You are the Test Manager for a project to develop a web customer portal of a Pay-TV company
that allows customers (with a smartcard and a set-top box) to purchase digital contents.
In the “select” page the system displays a dialogue where the customer can select the items
(digital contents) he/she is interested in. In this page he/she can add one or more items to a
shopping cart. An item consists of a product and a duration.
There are three types of products: Movie, sport and premium (movie and sport).
There are four possible durations: 1 months, 2 months, winter (from the beginning of January to
end of March) and summer (from the beginning of July to end of September).
All the combinations of products and durations are allowed to define an item. Thus there are
twelve possible items. A maximum of six different items can be added to the shopping cart at a
time.
When the customer decides to check out he/she goes to the “purchase” page where he/she can
pay the total amount of the shopping cart in three different ways:

– using a credit voucher
– using a credit already charged on the smartcard
– using a credit card (accepted credit cards are. Visa, MasterCard and Great Wall Card)
The customer can logout from both the “select” and “purchase” pages. In this case no purchase is
made.
You decide to apply a blended risk-based and reactive testing strategy and the following is a
subset of the exit criteria for system testing:
EXCR1- Each “critical” quality risk item must be covered by at least one test condition
EXCR2- Each “critical” requirement must be covered by at least one test condition
You are following a risk-based testing strategy. The test execution time is very limited. Assume
that all the product risk items require more or less the same level of test effort.

Which of the following answers describes the best execution schedule in this scenario?

Assume that you are the Test Manager for a small insurance application development project.
You have decided to adopt a risk-based testing strategy: 5 product risks (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5)
have been identified and their levels of risk have been assessed. 10 test cases (T1, …, T10) have
been designed to cover all the product risks.
The following table shows the risk level and the test cases associated to the identified product
risks (higher risk level means higher risk):
You are not confident with the assessment of the risk level and you suspect that it will be possible
to find high-priority bugs in low-risk areas.

Furthermore the period for test execution is very short. Your goal is to test all the product risks in a
risk-based way, while assuring that each product risk gets at least some amount of testing.
Which of the following answers describes the best test execution schedule in this scenario?
