Which of the following statements are true about risks of introducing test automation tools?

I . Poorly designed test cases automated "as is" results in execution errors.

II . Reduce defect detection due to limited manual testing by a tester.

III . Too many dependencies to integrate test tools and test tool limitations.

IV . Unrealistic expectations from management.

A car manufacturer is updating its airbag deployment system for its family cars. It has increased the number of airbags from four to nine. This has necessitated an upgrade to the airbag control software (ACS) to allow deployment of the extra airbags where appropriate. The car manufacturer receives information from on-board sensors. From this, it calculates the amount of deployment needed (minimal, medium and full), and from which airbag(s). For this upgrade, it will receive information from extra sensors to be used in its calculations. The car manufacturer employs its own in-house software development team. It uses the V model for its software development. There are four stages of testing, from unit through to factory acceptance testing. The development team is made up of project, programming and test managers. The programmers use object-oriented methods for development. The car manufacturer wishes to be first to market with the extra airbags, which will allow it to increase the safety ratings for its family cars, thereby increasing sales in a very competitive market. Which of the following are risks associated with the use of the V model for this upgrade?

I . The sensors may not be responsive enough in impacts.

II . The manufacturer may not be able to process the information received from the sensors quickly enough.

III . The time required to create the high- and low-level designs may mean that insufficient time can be spent on system testing.

IV . The system may fail factory acceptance testing, necessitating costly rework.

The aircrew of a national air defence force has requested changes to the existing aviation software that provides on-board information about the combat environment. The air force is currently engaged in a peace-keeping mission in another country and has come under unexpected threats. The development life cycle is the V model. The software house needs to change their test management process to ensure delivery at the right time and quality. The software changes are coming in as the aircrew request them, as a result of their engagements with hostile forces. The aircrew have requested that the changes are made as quickly as possible. The project manager has decided to revisit the test management process. The changes will come as small change requests. The team have worked on the project for over 25 years, with little staff turnover. Which of the following test measures should be emphasised during the crisis?

I . Readiness of the test environment for each run.

II . Number of high-priority defects being found.

III . Number of defects being found per tester.

IV . Number of hours overtime being worked by staff.

V . Number of change requests tested versus number passed.

According to the ISTQB syllabus, major ways to handle risks are:

I . Mitigate the risk through preventive measures.

II . Make contingency plans to reduce impact if risk occurs.

III . Transfer the risk to someone else to handle.

IV . Ignore and accept the risk.
