The departure of the test manager during the project. c. The quality of the information used to develop the tests. d. Unexpected long-term illness by a member of the project team ️️c The ISTQB Foundation Syllabus establishes a fundamental test process where test planning occurs early in the project, while test execution occurs at the end. Which of the following elements of the test plan, while specified during test planning, is assessed during test execution? a. Test tasks b. Environmental needs c. Exit criteria d. Test team training ️️c Consider the following exit criteria which might be found in a test plan: I No known customer-critical defects. II All interfaces between components tested. III 100% code coverage of all units. IV All specified requirements satisfied. V System functionality matches legacy system for all business rules Which of the following statements is true about whether these exit criteria belong in an acceptance test plan? a. All statements belong in an acceptance test plan. b. Only statement I belongs in an acceptance test plan. c. Only statements I, II, and V belong in an acceptance test plan. d. Only statements I, IV, and V belong in an acceptance test plan ️️d According to the ISTQB Glossary, what is a test level? a. A group of test activities that are organized together. b. One or more test design specification documents. c. A test type. d. An ISTQB certification. ️️a Which of the following metrics would be most useful to monitor during test execution? a. Percentage of test cases written. b. Number of test environments remaining to be configured. c. Number of defects found and fixed. d. Percentage of requirements for which a test has been written ️️c Why is independent testing important? a. Independent testing is usually cheaper than testing your own work. b. Independent testing is more effective at finding defects. c. Independent testers should determine the processes and methodologies used. d. Independent testers are dispassionate about whether the project succeeds or fails. ️️b Which of the following is among the typical tasks of a test leader? a. Develop system requirements, design specifications and usage models. b. Handle all test automation duties. c. Keep tests and test coverage hidden from programmers. d. Gather and report test progress metrics. ️️d According to the ISTQB Glossary, what do we mean when we call someone a test manager? a. A test manager manages a collection of test leaders. b. A test manager is the leader of a test team or teams. c. A test manager gets paid more than a test leader. d. A test manager reports to a test leader. ️️b What is the primary difference between the test plan, the test design specification, and the test procedure specification? a. The test plan describes one or more levels of testing, the test design specification identifies the associated high-level test cases and a test procedure specification describes the actions for executing a test. b. The test plan is for managers, the test design specification is for programmers and the test procedure specification is for testers who are automating tests c. The test plan is the least thorough, the test procedure specification is the most thorough and the test design specification is midway between the two. d. The test plan is finished in the first third of the project, the test design specification is finished in the middle third of the project and the test procedure specification is finished in the last third of the project. ️️a During test execution, the test manager describes the following situation to the project team: '90% of the test cases have been run. 20% of the test cases have identified defects. 127 defects have been found. 112 defects have been fixed and have passed confirmation testing. Of the remaining 15 defects, project management has decided that they do not need to be fixed prior to release.' Which of the following is the most reasonable interpretation of this test status repo
