ATM Exam Questions & Answers

You are the Test Manager for a project to develop a client-server application that allows wine vendors to

order custom-assorted packages of wines of several winemakers to sell special packages in their wine

shops.

You decide to apply a blended risk-based and reactive testing strategy. Below the exit criteria for the

system testinG.

EXCR1- Each "critical" quality risk item must be covered by at least one test condition

EXCR2- Each "critical" requirement must be covered by at least one test condition

The following are the "critical" requirements of the application:

REQ-SEL-1. The application shall allow the user to order only one package at a time

REQ-SEL-2. The application shall allow the user to select between four different packages (2-bottles, 6bottles, 12-bottles, 15-bottles)

REQ-SEL-3. The application shall allow the user to order a package containing at least 1 bottle and no

more bottles than the package size. No error messages shall be displayed if the user selects a valid

number of bottles (at least 1 bottle and no more than the package size)

REQ-SEL-4. The application shall display an error message "Invalid number of bottles" if an invalid number

of bottles is selected by the user (zero bottles or a number higher than the package size)

REQ-PAY-1. The application shall allow the user to pay with the three accepted credit cards (Visa,

MasterCard, American Express)

REQ-PAY-2. The application shall display an error message "Invalid credit card" if invalid credit card data

are given by the user

QUSTION NO: 11

The following is the unique "critical" quality risk item that has been identified:

CR-RSK-1. The GUI of the application might accept non-integer values for the input field designed to get

the number of bottles from the user Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test

conditions have been identifieD.

TC-SEL-2. Test the selection of the package sizes TC-SEL-4. Test wrong numbers of bottles for an order TC-CR-RSK-1. Test the accepted values from the input field designed to get the number of bottles from the

user

Assume that you have used traceability to determine the logical test cases that cover all the requirements and the single risk item identified in that scenario. Which of the following is a positive logical test that is complete and correct, and covers the REQ-SEL-4

requirement? K3 2 credits

A. Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 5 bottles; verify that no error messages are displayed

B. Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles; verify that no error messages are displayed

C. Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles; verify that the "Invalid number of bottles" message is displayed

D. Select a 6-bottles package, then try to insert 7 bottles

Consider the following list of statements about audits and management reviews:

I. Audits are usually more effective than management reviews at finding defects

II. Audits and management reviews have the same main goals, the only difference is related to the roles and level of formality

III. A typical outcome of an audit includes observations and recommendations, corrective actions and a pass/fail assessment

IV. An audit is not the appropriate mechanism to use at the code review in order to detect defects prior to dynamic testing

Which of the following statements is true?

K2 1 credit

A. I. and III. are true; II. and IV. are false;

B. II. and III are true; I. and IV. are false;

C. III. and IV. are true; I and II are false;

D. I, III and IV are true; II. is false;

You are a Test Manager working for a software organization where reviews have never been applied. After a meeting with your managers examining a business case for reviews, (including their costs, benefits, and potential issues), the management finally decides to adopt formal reviews for future projects.

You have been given a budget that you have spent to provide training in the review process and to introduce the review process on a pilot project.

On that pilot project the introduction of reviews has been very positive in terms of positive involvement from all the participants. All the reviews applied to different documents have been very effective for their purposes (especially at revealing defects).

Which of the following answers describes an important success factor for the introduction of formal reviews which is missing in this scenario? K4 3 credits

A. Management support

B. Participant support

C. Definition and use of metrics to measure the ROI (Return On Investment)

D. Training in the review process
