You are testing a large e-commerce system for household goods that is being implemented using Agile methodologies You are currently working on deriving tests for stories that are implementing the following epic.
As a customer I want to use the e-commerce system, so that I can have my purchased goods delivered to my house.
The story you are currently working on is:
As a customer I want to be told when my items will be delivered, so I can plan to be home.
You have been given the following charter that was proposed by another tester for testing this story Login as a customer, buy enough of each item to qualify for free shipping for each item checkout and verify that no shipping fee has been added.
What is the main flaw in this charter?

• A.It does not cover the mam functionality of the user story
• B.The expected results are not defined
• C.The actions of the user are not clearly stated in the charter
• D.It focuses on the delivery company instead of the activities of the user

You are testing a payment processing application that calls an external service at a bank to process the monetary transactions. The bank charges per transaction for the use of their service. You are creating an automation suite that will be used as part of continuous testing. How could service virtualization benefit the project if a virtualized service is created that will act in the same way as the bank application?

• A.The virtualized service will be more secure than the bank transaction, reducing the need to security test the automation code.
• B.The virtualized service will reduce the cost of testing as there will be no transaction fees charged by the bank to use their test service
• C.The virtualized service will reduce the need for data management
• D.The virtualized service will be faster and that will make the automation suite run faster

Your organization has been making animal food dispensers for free-range chickens and has been using a combination of test automation exploratory testing and some black-box testing on all products. The company has been using the following approach to the testing of the high-risk items:
Exploratory testing = 85%
Black-box testing = 15%
Test automation = coverage goal is 25% but time is only allocated to automation if no other testing is needed, so the coverage is currently about 5% and the automation suite is run only infrequently.
The company has decided to modify their product and use it for pill dispensing for pharmacies Regardless of the mechanical challenges of this modification you now have to determine how testing should be adjusted for this safety critical application Which of the following would follow the guidelines in the syllabus for the testing approach for the high-risk items?

• A.Exploratory testing = 25% Black-box testing = 75%
  Test automation = 75% coverage executed for every code release
• B.Exploratory testing = 50% Black box testing = 50%
  Test automation = 50% coverage executed before every production release
• C.Exploratory testing = 15%
  Black box testing = 85%
  Test automation = 25%, executed for every code release
• D.Exploratory testing = 85%
  Black-box testing = 15%
  Test automation = 25% coverage executed infrequently

An increased proportion of automated test coverage often leads to a greater degree of manual testing that follows reactive strategies, because:

• A.Reactive 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
• B.An increase of the proportion of automated test increases test coverage, and the uncovered areas are to be tested reactively
• C.Many of the tests that can be prepared upfront, will be automated which enables the testers to spend more time for execution of manual tests
• D.If the proportion of automated tests increases, manual tests focus on the riskiest areas which are identified reactively

Which of the following is an expected problem that often occurs with automation test suites?

• A.The test execution time becomes longer making it difficult to get all the tests run as often as desired
• B.The test suite continues to grow making source control difficult to manage
• C.The time it takes to create new tests increases exponentially as new features are added to the code
• D.The defects become prohibitive when trying to execute the suite
