Practice iSQI CTAL-TM_Syll2012 Exam Questions

Assume you are the Test Manager for a new software release of an e - commerce application. The server farm consists of six servers providing different capabilities. Each capability is provided through a set of web services. The requirements specification document contains several SLAs (Service Level Agreements) like the following: SLA - 001: 99.5 percent of all transactions shall have a response time less than five seconds under a load of up - to 5000 concurrent users The main objective is to assure that all the SLAs specified in the requirements specification document will be met before system release. You decide to apply a risk - based testing strategy and an early risk analysis confirms that performance is high risk. You can count on a well - written requirements specification and on a model of the system behavior under various load levels produced by the system architect. Which of the following test activities would you expect to be the less important ones to achieve the test objectives in this scenario? K4 3 credits

Consider an information system of a Pay - Tv company based on a SOA architecture. The integrated system currently consists of three core systems: - a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system - a BRM (Billing and Revenue Management) system - a CAS (Conditional Access System) system all of them communicating with SOA Middleware. You have been asked to manage the testing activities for the integration of two additional off - theshelf systems from two different vendors: a SMS (Short Message Service) server and an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system. Assume that there is a high likelihood that the two off - the - shelf systems will be low - quality and that you have a clear proof that the testing performed by the two vendors on their systems has been unsystematic and unprofessional. This obviously leads to higher quality risk for the overall integrated system. You are the Test Manager of this project. Your main goal is to plan for testing activities to mitigate this risk. Which of the following answers best describes the test activities (assuming it is possible to perform all of them) you should plan for? K4 3 credits

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? K2 1 credit

Which of the following is an example of the test closure activity indicated as "lessons learned"? K2 1 credit

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? K3 2 credits
