You are reviewing the project's traceability matrix after the first cycle of testing. You have discovered that new requirements have been introduced and others have changed.
What should you do? [2]

• A.Assign the new requirements to a maintenance release, update the test documentation for the changed requirements.
• B.Ask for more time and budget for testing.
• C.Update the "lessons learned" document to avoid future issues similar to this.
• D.Re-assess the test coverage.

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?

• 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

Testing Process
Consider an information system of a Pay-Tv company based on a SOA architecture.
The integrated system currently consists of three core systems:
- a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system
- a BRM (Billing and Revenue Management) system
- a CAS (Conditional Access System) system
all of them communicating with SOA Middleware.
You have been asked to manage the testing activities for the integration of two additional off-the-shelf systems from two different vendors: a SMS (Short Message Service) server and an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system.
Assume that there is a high likelihood that the two off-the-shelf systems will be low-quality and that you have a clear proof that the testing performed by the two vendors on their systems has been unsystematic and unprofessional. This obviously leads to higher quality risk for the overall integrated system.
You are the Test Manager of this project. Your main goal is to plan for testing activities to mitigate this risk.
Which of the following answers best describes the test activities (assuming it is possible to perform all of them) you should plan for?

• A.You should plan for an informal and minimal acceptance test of the two off-the-shelf systems and then a single end-to-end test of the overall integrated system
• B.You should directly plan for a single end-to-end test focused on end-to-end tests of the overall integrated system without an acceptance test of the two off-the-shelf systems
• C.You should plan for two levels: a system integration test and an end-to-end test of the overall integrated system
• D.You should plan for adequate re-testing of both the systems followed by a system integration test and an end-to-end test of the overall integrated system
