You are part of an agile team creating a user story.
Which of the following requirements engineering techniques would you use to provide a visual representation of the system and help to see the 'overall* story with the functional flow?
SELECT ONE OPTION
Story Mapping is an effective requirements engineering technique used in Agile environments to provide a visual representation of the system. It helps in understanding the 'overall' story and functional flow by mapping user stories along a timeline or process steps, laying them out in a two-dimensional structure that represents the product backlog. This technique is particularly useful for visualizing the scope of large features or entire systems, making it easier to plan releases and improve understanding among the team .
Which statement about test automation is TRUE?
SELECT ONE OPTION
The statement 'Test suite coverage can be increased without the need for refactoring' is accurate because test suite coverage refers to the extent to which the test cases cover the software under test. This coverage can be enhanced by adding new tests that address areas not previously covered, without necessarily modifying the existing test structures or setups. Refactoring is often related to improving the internal design of the tests for better maintainability or performance but does not inherently affect the coverage directly .
A software company based in Spain that develops mobile applications expects many small updates in the future, e.g., due to changing configurations and customer feedback. The company also wants to focus on being able to change the software effectively and efficiently during initial development without introducing new defects.
Which maintainability sub-characteristic should be covered by the test approach during the initial development?
In the context of a software company in Spain developing mobile applications with an expectation of many small updates due to changing configurations and customer feedback, focusing on being able to change the software effectively and efficiently during initial development without introducing new defects is crucial. The maintainability sub-characteristic that should be covered by the test approach during the initial development is Modifiability.
Modifiability refers to the ease with which a software product can be modified to correct faults, improve performance or other attributes, or adapt to a changed environment. In a scenario where frequent and small updates are anticipated, ensuring that the software architecture and design support easy modification is vital. This not only aids in implementing changes more rapidly but also helps in maintaining the stability and integrity of the application, thereby preventing the introduction of new defects. The focus on modifiability ensures that the software remains responsive to customer feedback and evolving requirements without compromising on quality or performance.
Which of the following does NOT contribute to a more effective review preparation by the Technical Test Analyst?
An effective review preparation by a Technical Test Analyst includes ensuring that participants are well-prepared and that they spend enough time on preparation, which can be managed by checking the rate (option A). The use of review checklists (option C) and providing review training (option D) are also methods that contribute to more effective review preparation. However, managing the logging rate (option B), or the number of defects logged per minute during the meeting, is not related to the preparation phase but rather to the defect detection and logging phase during the actual review meeting. It is not a preparation activity but a review execution activity.
An enhancement to a Social Media application allows for the creation of new Groups. Any number of existing application members can be added to a Group. An attempt to add a non-existent member of the application to a Group will result in an error, as will an attempt to add the same member twice. Members can be removed from an existing Group. An existing Group can be deleted but only if there are no current members attached to it.

Table 3 provides the best test coverage for the described scenario, as it includes various key test conditions:
Attempting to add a non-existent member, resulting in an error.
Trying to add a member twice to the same group, leading to an error for duplicate entry.
Removing a member from the group.
Attempting to delete a group that is not empty, which correctly results in an error, and finally deleting a group when it is empty.
This table most comprehensively covers the functionalities and error handling specified in the enhancement details, effectively testing all scenarios including normal and exceptional behavior .
