Question 1

You are working in a project that developed a product that has reached a stable state and is

deployed on different HW configurations all over Europe.

You management decided to use your project as Proof of Concept for adopting CI as a new way of

working. The POC was implemented on one set of hardware and was successful.

Which of the following actions is a good next step?

AEnable different test configurations in the CI process to test different configurations that are
deployed in the market

BSpeed up test execution by decreasing the amount of User Interface (UI) testing to get
faster feedback from the CI tests

CReduce the number of tests in the CI test suite, to improve the benefit of the CI approach

DImplement code to dynamically select CI tests, executing only test cases affected by
changes

Answer : A

Question 2

The challenges described below are of test automation in agile settings or agile projects. Which is

the correctly described one?

AResource's availability is a challenge in automating tests in agile settings, as they are
needed to create, maintain, and execute the test suite

BUnit testing automation is the most critical test automation needed in agile and covers most
of the testing challenges in agile quality of code and gives good test coverage

CTest deployment time is one of the challenges of agile testing, as deploying slow is not
possible in short iterations

DTest Execution Time is not critical in agile as there are fewer tests written, and they are
designed as checklists or high-level tests which reduces the time it takes to execute them

Answer : A

Question 3

An increased proportion of automated test coverage often leads to a greater degree of manual

testing that follows reactive strategies, because:

AMany of the tests that can be prepared upfront, will be automated which enables the testers
to spend more time for execution of manual tests

BAn increase of the proportion of automated test increases test coverage, and the uncovered
areas are to be tested reactively

CIf the proportion of automated tests increases, manual tests focus on the riskiest areas
which are identified reactively

DReactive strategies consider the current context and status of the project and the system
under test. To be able to adopt to this status most flexible a greater degree of manual
testing is necessary

Answer : A

Question 4

Summarize the characteristics of test automation in relation to development projects.

ATest automation can play an important role in test environment configuration and test
release acquisition

BIn large projects, there is usually one best solution that fits all needs, and so. on dedicated
test automation strategies fits best

CTest automation supports the goals of an iteration directly, e.g., by reducing the regression
risk associated with stability of the system

DSupportive test automation effort must be done in the teams of the iteration teams
themselves

Answer : A

Question 5

Refactoring of test cases is needed in agile projects for many reasons.

Which of the following statements about the refactoring of test cases is correct?

ARefactoring of test cases is done to match and evolve the test cases due to changing
functionality. The main benefits include improving the regression test cases and the
continued alignment of the tests with the code base and product functionality

BRefactoring of test cases is needed because we cannot write and maintain detailed test
cases in the short iterations associated with agile. The main benefits include aligning the
pace of testing with development and the ability to quickly create new test cases

CIn general, in the agile world refactoring is a way to clean up test cases by making them
shorter. The main benefits include the ability to write test cases quickly, being able to test
faster using short test cases, and being able to automate them quickly

DRefactoring of test cases is done as a process with the following steps: Identification,
Refactor, Re-run, and Identify again. The main benefits include improving the regression
test cases and maintaining the alignment of tests with the code base and product
functionality

Answer : A

Question 6

Which of the following statements about performing exploratory testing with test charters is

correct?

AIn contrast to black-box testing, the expected result is documented after a defect is found
and not as part of test design

BTest charters are a useful tool to be used for testing when a detailed specification for the
system under test is available

CThe result of performing exploratory testing by using test charters is finding defects and
specification defects

DExploratory testing and black-box testing use the same metrics for measuring test coverage

Answer : A

Question 7

A developer has implemented a class that calculates if a given date is a leap year. The definition

for the leap year is given:

Every year that is exactly divisible by four is a leap year, except for years that are exactly

divisible by 100, but these centurial years are leap years if they are exactly divisible by 400.

- divisible by 4

- but not by 100

- years divisible by 400 are leap anyway

You have already thought about it and started with the first test class; the test class looks like

(pseudo JavaScript used here):

// LeapYear.spec.js

describe('Leap year calculator', () => {

it('should consider 1996 as leap', () => {

expect(LeapYear.isLeap(1996)).toBe(true);

});

What would now be your next step to proceed as efficient as possible, to validate the correctness

of the class above?

AFirst write additional test classes to test also other relevant aspects of the leap year
calculation

BFirst write code that covers other relevant aspects of the leap year calculation

CFirst write code that makes this test case fail

DFirst write code that makes this test case pass

Answer : D
