Question 11

You are executing the first test run of a test automation suite of 200 tests. All the relevant information related to the state of the SUT and to the automated test execution is stored in a small database. During the Automated test run you observe that the first 10 test pass, while an abnormal termination occurs when executing the 11thtest. This test does not complete its execution and the overall execution of the suite is aborted. An immediate analysis of the abnormal termination is expected to be time consuming and you have been asked to produce a detailed report of the execution results for the first test run, as soon as possible.
What is the MOST important FIRST step to be taken immediately after the abnormal occurred when executing the 11thtest?

A. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 12thtest
B. Return the database to a consistent state that allows subsequent test to run
C. Take a backup of the database in its current stat
D. So It can be analyzed later
E. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 1sttest.

Correct Answer:C

Question 12

What represents good practice when automating a manual regression test suite?

A. Test data shared between tests should, where feasible, be stored and accessed from a single source to avoid duplication or introduction of error.
B. All existing manual tests should be decomposed into several smaller automated tests to reduce functional overlap.
C. Remove inter-dependencies between tests to reduce automation failures and costly error analysis.
D. Once a manual test has been automated, execute it immediately to Identify whether it operates correctly.

Correct Answer:D

Question 13

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

Correct Answer:B

Question 14

You have inherited a TAS that is working well it uses keyword-driven scripting and was well architected. The automation architect who built the system has now moved on to another company. The TAS is working across several projects and has a multiple library of keywords, categorised by project. The individual project teams maintain these keyword scripts.
Based only on the given information, what is the MOST significant risk for the TAS?

A. The keyword driven scripts may become out of date if not maintained
B. The level of abstraction, coupled with the departure of the architect may make the system hard to maintain
C. New projects may not work as well with the TAS as the current projects
D. Because the keyword scripts are maintained by different teams, there is a likelihood that good coding standards are not followed

Correct Answer:B

Question 15

A SUT has an existing automated test suite.
Which of the following statements relating to the introduction of new features in the SUT is TRUE?

A. Automated tests are not affected by the introduction of a new feature and running them against the new SUT is a waste of effort
B. The introduction of a new feature could require updates or additions to the testware components
C. The test automation engineer should work with the business analysts to ensure the new feature is testable
D. It is generally more difficult to automate test cases for a new feature as the development has not yet started

Correct Answer:B
