You started with the credit cards and you have found that, valid or invalid, they are never accepted. You have logged this as a defect. What should you do now?  Enter your exploratory test cases with detailed test steps into the Test Management System  Close the session and start a new session with a new charter  Continue the session and conduct the testing for debit cards  Automate the testing for the credit card exploratory tests so they can be used for confirmation testing after the defect is fixed. ExplanationThe correct answer isD.Automate the testing for the credit card exploratory tests so they can be used for confirmation testing after the defect is fixed.A).Enter your exploratory test cases with detailed test steps into the Test Management System This is incorrect because entering the test cases into the Test Management System is not enough to document and track the exploratory testing process. The test cases should also include the expected results, actual results, and defects found during the testing. Moreover, the test cases should be organized into a clear and logical structure that reflects the test charter and scope.B).Close the session and start a new session with a new charterThis is incorrect because closing and starting a new session with a new charter would mean losing all the information and data collected during the previous session. This would make it difficult to resume and continue the testing process from where it left off. Instead, it would be better to use a consistent and stable session with a single charter that covers all the requirements and features of the system.C).Continue the session and conduct the testing for debit cardsThis is incorrect because continuing the session and conducting only one type of card (debit) would not provide a comprehensive coverage of all possible scenarios and outcomes of accepting credit cards. It would also limit the scope of testing to only one aspect of payment processing, which may not reflect all the business rules, validations, exceptions, or integrations involved in this domain.D).Automate the testing for the credit card exploratory tests so they can be used for confirmation testing after the defect is fixed This is correct because automating some or all of the exploratory tests can help to save time, effort, and resources by reducing manual effort and increasing efficiency. It can also help to improve accuracy, consistency, and reliability by eliminating human errors and biases. Moreover, automating some or all of the exploratory tests can enable them to be reused for confirmation testing after fixing any defects found during exploratory testing.Confirmation testing is a type of functional testing that verifies that all requirements are met by performing regression tests on previously tested functionality1.NO.47 During testing of a mobile banking application, traceability matrices are defined and maintained between test cases and user stories. This task is supported by a test management tool. Testing is expected to report on the coverage level of the implemented and tested user stories. Which of the following test types is most likely being performed?  Functional correctness testing  Functional appropriateness testing  Functional completeness testing  Interoperability testing NO.48 company in the medical domain has adopted methodical testing as its preferred test strategy Before being able to release to the market an external audit on the test process is mandatory. The test team consists of a mix of highly experienced domain-based testers and junior testers who only recently joined the company.What is the BEST option regarding the level of detail and documentation required for test cases in the project?  Low-level test cases since this will support both the external audit and the new junior testers.  High-level test cases since this is consistent with the chosen test strategy  Low-level test cases since it will make the process more effective and it will make the best use of the knowledge and skills of the experienced domain testers.  High-level test cases since it will make the process more effective and it will make the best use of the knowledge and skills of the experienced I domain testers. ExplanationThe level of detail and documentation required for test cases in the project depends on the type of application under test, the standards followed by the organization, and the maturity of the development process. For a medical domain application that is undergoing frequent changes, it is advisable to use low-level test cases that provide more details and specifications for each feature. Low-level test cases can support both the external audit and the new junior testers by ensuring traceability between the requirements and the test scenarios, as well as by facilitating future changes or enhancements. Low-level test cases can also be reviewed and updated by both experienced domain-based testers and junior testers who have extensive knowledge of the medical domain.

Which type of document is typically also used by a Test Analyst as the test basis for interoperability testing?  User stories  Functional specifications  Component specifications  System architecture document ExplanationA system architecture document is a document that describes the structure and behavior of a system, including its components, interfaces, communication protocols, and dependencies. It is typically used by a Test Analyst as the test basis for interoperability testing, as it provides the necessary information to design test cases that cover the interactions between different systems or components. A system architecture document can also help to identify potential risks and challenges related to interoperability testing, such as compatibility issues, performance bottlenecks, security vulnerabilities, and data integrity problems.

Option D also uses the correct notation for decision tables, such as Y for yes, N for no, and – for don’t care.References=* ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Syllabus Technical Test Analyst1, Section 3.2.2 Decision Tables* ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Syllabus Test Analyst2, Section 3.2.2 Decision Tables* ISTQB Test Analyst Syllabus and Study Guide3, Section 3.2.2 Decision Tables* ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Overview of Syllabi4, Section 1.3 ContentNO.52 A PIN entry component of an ATM system has been developed using the following state table:Using the state transition test technique, how many 0-switch test cases are needed to achieve 100% 0-switch coverage?  4  7  8  28 NO.53 In the recent past, you have learned that test automation just using capture & playback tooling, possibly enhanced with some test programming, has limitations. For the next banking project, that will be run using Agile methods, you want to implement a keyword-driven test automation approach. You have already started to define some high-level test cases for the account transfer user story:TC 1 transfer € 150 from Lars to Ann, verify Ann’s balance to be € 150TC 2 transfer € 300 from Tim to Ann, verify Ann’s balance to be € 450In the context of implementing the keyword-driven test automation approach, which of the following activities should now be conducted by the Test Analyst?  Define keywords to be implemented, eg, check balance.B Design test navigation scripts.  Select a tool to support keyword-driven testing  Work together with a developer to define a test automaton architecture ExplanationIn a keyword-driven test automation approach, the Test Analyst is responsible for defining the keywords that represent the actions and expected outcomes of the test cases. The keywords are then implemented by a developer or a tool as reusable functions or scripts that can be executed by the test automation framework. For example, the Test Analyst can define keywords such as “transfer”, “check balance”, “verify balance”, etc. for the account transfer user story. These keywords can then be used to design test cases in a data-driven or table-driven format, such as:TableKeywordParameter 1Parameter 2Parameter 3transferLarsAnn150check balanceAnn–150verify balanceAnn–150transferTimAnn300check balanceAnn–450verify balanceAnn–450References = Keyword Driven Testing Framework with Example (Section 1 and 2), What is Keyword Driven Testing: A Detailed Tutorial With Examples (Section 1 and 2), ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Syllabus Technical Test Analyst (Section 4.2.1 and 4.2.2)NO.54 You are testing software which is being ported from one platform to another.There are no documented requirements and there is no time budgeted for writing them.Which type of test technique is most useful in this situation?  Black-box test technique  White-box test technique  Defect-based test technique  Experience-based test technique NO.55 Rather than developing an e-commerce product, management has decided to acquire a COTS package The e-commerce product needs to interface.with backend applications such a finance, stock control and order delivery. You are asked to define a test plan for this project.Given just the information in the scenario, which of the following software quality characteristics must be included in your test plan?  Interoperability  Reliability  Maintainability  Portability ExplanationInteroperability is the degree to which two or more systems or components can exchange and use information.It is a crucial quality characteristic for an e-commerce product that needs to interface with backend applications, such as finance, stock control and order delivery. The test plan must include tests to verify that the COTS package can communicate and integrate with the existing systems and applications, and that the data and functionality are consistent and accurate across the interfaces.

What is the Adaptability Test?NO.57 Based on the classification tree shown below, using the pairwise testing technique how many test cases are required to test all pairs?  3  8  9  12 ExplanationPairwise testing is a technique that tests all possible discrete combinations of each pair of input parameters. In this case, there are two main categories: Colour and Shape. Under Colour, there are three subcategories: Red, Blue, and Green. Under Shape, there are two subcategories: Triangle and Circle. There is an additional category under Triangle labeled Size of triangle, with two subcategories: Small and Large. To test all pairs of these parameters, we need to use a tool or an algorithm that can generate the optimal test cases. One such tool is Pairwise.org, which can produce the following test cases:TableColourShapeSize of triangleRedTriangleSmallBlueCircle–GreenTriangleLargeRedCircle–BlueTriangleSmallGreenCircle–RedTriangleLargeBlueTriangleLargeThese eight test cases cover all pairs of parameters, such as Red-Triangle, Red-Small, Blue-Circle, etc.Therefore, the answer is B. 8.

He decides to market, sell and distribute these superior teas via the web. His marketing strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website that has fast loading graphics, high availability, superior usability and fast response times. The website will offer the following:– An innovative interactive catalogue of teas, which not only enables customers to buy the product, but also enables them to provide feedback by rating the teas (which will influence his stock purchasing levels).– Provide the customer with the ability to use secure credit card transactions.– Provide the customer with the ability to give general feedback.Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers who are experienced in web development Ken, although he doesn’t have a technical skillset, is concerned with quality. He doesn’t believe a lot of documentation is necessary and he wants the website to be completed quickly. The test basis contains the following:– Story boards that show the information flow and page links through the site.– HTML pages developed to date– A set of non-functional requirements.With the strategy taking shape, it is decided that exploratory testing should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Ken’s overall objectives. You have now been given the task of identifying the exploratory tests, which will be executed as test sessions.Which of the options below state what you will typically use for identifying the exploratory tests?  Apply equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis using the storyboard ideas as a basis to maximise functional coverage  Use external testers on the team to provide a new approach and fresh view to the testing effort  Create test chatters to be used to guide the testing  Define low-level test cases to be executed by the end users. ExplanationExploratory testing is an approach that involves simultaneous learning, test design, and test execution. It is suitable for testing a web application with minimal documentation and tight deadlines. Test chatters are brief notes that describe the test objectives, test ideas, test data, test steps, and test results. They are used to guide the testing and document the test sessions. Test chatters are flexible and adaptable to the changing requirements and feedback from the stakeholders.

ExplanationThe acceptance criteria are the conditions that must be met for the user story to be considered done and acceptable by the user. They should be defined and testable, meaning that they are clear, measurable, and verifiable. The acceptance criteria for the user story are not well-defined and testable, because they do not specify how the payment is made, how the registration is verified, andhow the monthly limit is enforced.These details are important for testing the functionality and quality of the user story, and should be included in the acceptance criteria.

You have performed the following steps:1. Compared actual with expected results2. Logged actual results3. Identified the specific versions tested as well as specific environment configurations4. Logged information in the context of the level of testing and the strategy What other step should you perform at the time you are logging the incident?  Debug the code to determine the cause of the defect  Update the test automation to bypass the defect  Identify and log any new risks that have surfaced  None, you have taken all appropriate steps ExplanationIncident logging and reporting is an important part of incident management, as it helps to document the incident details, communicate the incident status, and analyze the incident causes and impacts1. One of the steps in incident logging and reporting is to identify and log any new risks that have surfaced as a result of the incident2. This helps to assess the severity and priority of the incident, as well as to plan for risk mitigation and contingency actions3. Debugging the code and updating the test automation are not part of incident logging and reporting, but rather part of incident resolution and recovery4. None is not a valid answer, as there is always room for improvement in incident management5.References = 1: 5 Steps to Create an Effective Incident Reporting Procedure 2: 12 Things To Include In An Incident Report Log (Full Guide) 3: Incident reporting procedure example and flow chart 4: What is incident management? Steps, tips, and best practices 5: Incident Management: Process, System, & ToolsNO.61 You are building tests using the classification tree below. You have been told that pairwise testing would be a good approach to this problem. When you apply the pairwise testing technique what would be the expected effect on the number of test cases?  Pairwise testing will require fewer test cases than exhaustive testing  Pairwise testing will have no effect on the number of test cases  Pairwise testing would not be applicable for this problem  Pairwise testing would not be possible because equivalence partitions have not been defined ExplanationPairwise testing is a technique that reduces the number of test cases by testing only pairs of values for each data item, instead of testing all possible combinations. Pairwise testing is based on the assumption that most defects are caused by interactions of at most two factors. Pairwise testing can be applied to this problem using the classification tree, which shows the data items and their values. By using pairwise testing, the number of test cases will be lower than exhaustive testing, which would require testing every combination of values for each data item.

In addition to looking at the information exchange between the systems, what else should be identified for testing?  The information exchange between the systems and the users  The information exchange between each system and its environment  The information exchange between the business analyst and the end user  The information exchange between the test automation and the test management system ExplanationThe correct answer isB.The information exchange between each system and its environment.The information exchange between each system and its environmentThe information exchange between each system and its environment refers to the compatibility and functionality of the systems with respect to the hardware, software, network, and other external factors that may affect their interaction.This type of testing is important to ensure that the systems can operate smoothly and reliably in different scenarios and conditions1.References=* ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Syllabus Test Analyst2, Section 3.2.2 Interoperability* ISTQB Test Analyst Syllabus and Study Guide3, Section 3.2.2 Interoperability* A Simple Guide to Interoperability Testing (with Examples)4, Section 2. How to do Interoperability testingNO.63 You have been informed by your Test Manager that the next project you will be working on as a Test Analyst will be using an iterative model rather than the V-model your projects normally employ. What might be an adjustment you and your test team might expect to make?  More complete requirements at the beginning of the first test phase  A reduced set of standard test processes for each iteration  Less stringent quality goals  Not as close of a working relationship with developers ExplanationThe iterative model is a cyclical process in which the software product is developed and tested incrementally in short cycles called iterations. Each iteration delivers a working version of the product that can be evaluated and improved. Compared to the V-model, which is a linear and sequential process that follows a fixed set of phases and activities, the iterative model requires a reduced set of standard test processes for each iteration, as well as more flexibility and adaptability to changing requirements and feedback. The test analyst and the test team might expect to make this adjustment when working on an iterative model project.
