Which of the following statements does NOT describe good practice for maintaining the TAS?
A project consists of distributed teams working in a 24-hour environment, where activities happen at all hours of the day. This project adopts a CI (Continuous Integration) process when developer check-in code and consists of automated activities that include generating a build and deploying it to a test environment. Automated integration tests are run multiple times a day. The project have asked for a report containing the automation test results for every build, which must be available 24/7 to the project team.
Which of the following would be the BEST way to automatically provides this report?
A suite of automated test cases was run multiple times on the same release of the SUT in the same test environment. Consider analyzing a test histogram that shows the distribution of test results (pass, fail, etc.) for each test case across these runs. Which of the following potential issues is MOST likely to be identified as a result of such an analysis?
An automated test case that should always pass sometimes passes and sometimes fails intermittently (non-deterministic behavior) when executed in the same test environment, even if no code (i.e., SUT code or the test automation code) has been changed. Which of the following statements about the root cause of this non-deterministic behavior is TRUE?
Which of the following recommendations can help improve the maintainability of test automation code?
You have been asked to determine a TAS for a new release of a SUT, test should be automated wherever. The new release will consist of 5 new interfaces and an amendment to 3 existing interfaces. The new and amended interface will be deliver incrementally in 3 sprints, each lasting 2 weeks.
What would be the BEST Test Automation Solution (TAS) design in this scenario?
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 regression test suite consist of 500 test cases which are all executed manually. The business case for a pilot project is based on the adoption of test automation using a commercial tool that will reduce the execution time by a factor of 90% for 100% of the tests in the regression test suite. The pilot project lasted one month ( as planned) and you are currently its results. At the end of the pilot project, 40% of the regression tests have been automated and their execution time has been reduce by 60%.
Which of the following statements is TRUE in this scenario?
Consider the following example of TAS metrics.
Time to execute automated tests
Speed and efficiency of TAS components
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
Consider a TAS deployed into production. The SUT is a web application and the test suite consists of a set of automated regression tests developed via GUI. A keyword-driven framework has been adopted for automating the regression tests. The tests are based on identification at low-levels of the web page components (e.g class indexes, tab sequence indexes and coordinates) in the next planned release the SUT will be subject to significant corrective maintenance (bug-fixes) and evolution (new features) Maintenance costs to update the test scripts should be as low as possible and the scripts must be highly reusable.
Which of the following statements is most likely to be TRUE?
