Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.
Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?
Consider the following layers of the gTAA structure:
a. Test generation layer
b. Test definition layer
c. Test execution layer
d. Test execution layer
Consider the following capabilities associated with these layers.
Acquire all the necessary resources before each test and release all after run, in order to avoid interdependences between test
Allow the automated test scripts on an abstract level to interact with components, configurations and interfaces of the SUT.
Design test directives that allow configuring the algorithms used to automatically produce the test cases a given model of the SUT.
Allow the definition and implementation of test cases and data by means of templates and/or guidelines.
Which of the following BEST matches each layer with the appropriate capability?
You identified a suitable project to pilot an automation tool and planned and conduced a pilot. The pilot has been successful and tool Is being deployed within your organization, with a plan to increase tool use by the one project at a time. During this rollout some test processes will be changed slightly to gain additional benefits from using the tool.
In the pilot project, a small set of manual tests were automated for the first time. You are currently monitoring the test automation efficiency and this reveals that the automation regime for the tests is not yet mature.
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within your organization. The projects require that tool to work effectively and efficiently with SUT's in distributed environments. The test automated tool also needs to interface with other existing test tools (test management tool and defect tracking tool.) The existing test tools subject to planned updates and their interface to the test automated tool may not work property after these updates.
Which of the following are the two LEAST important concerns related to the evaluation of the test automation in this scenario?
Is the test automation tool able to launch processors and execute test cases on multiple machines in different environments?
Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different sets?
Does the test automation tool have a large feature set, but only part of the features will be sets?
Do the release notes for the planned updates on existing specify the impacts on their interfaces to other tools?
Does the test automation tool need to install specific libraries that could impact the SUT?
Which of the following attributes should NOT be included in a test execution report associated with a suite of automated tests?
