A project to develop a foreign exchange Automated Telling Machine for an airport has been planned and a risk assessment has shown that there are 3 key risks:

I. There is a risk that usability will be a problem for visually impaired users because the operation requires viewing several screens in sequence with relatively small text. This has been assessed as medium likelihood with high impact.
II. There is a risk that response will be relatively slow because the foreign exchange rates will be checked before each transaction; this has been assessed as medium likelihood with medium impact.
III. There is a risk that accuracy of calculations could lead to cumulative errors. This has been assessed as low likelihood with high impact.

The test strategy currently requires performance testing during system test, usability testing during User Acceptance Test and accuracy tests at every test level. The project schedule is under time pressure.

Which of the following possible risk mitigation actions should be prioritized highest?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Allow access to the system for usability testing during integration

  • Review the calculation algorithms and work with specialists to define a data set for calculation tests

  • Spend time with developers to Identify operational scenarios to test performance

  • Defer usability testing until UAT and recruit visually impaired testers to join the UAT team

Assume you are a test analyst working on a banking project to upgrade an existing automated teller machine system to allow customers to obtain cash advances from supported credit cards.
When the user first inserts a valid credit card type, the system considers the user to be in the unauthenticated state. Prior to requesting a cash advance, though, the user must enter the authenticated state. The user authenticates by entering the proper PIN.
When authenticating the user, the system should allow the user to enter their PIN up to three times before failing the authentication and rejecting the card. On the first and second try, the system should prompt the user to reenter the PIN.

Suppose you are concerned that, depending on the exact number of invalid PINs entered, the system might behave improperly. Which of the following test design techniques is specifically targeted at such failures?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Equivalence partitioning extended by boundary value analysis

  • Pairwise testing with orthogonal arrays

  • State-based testing

  • Classification tree

As a test analyst you are involved in the early stages of an acceptance test for a Product Data Management system. You are asked to write test designs and test cases based on use cases. An early version of the system is also already available. It is a known fact that on the implementation level many things will change (including the user-interface). The tests will be carried by end-users with much domain knowledge who have also been involved in the project defining the user requirements and reviewing documentation.
What is the BEST option regarding the level of detail and documentation required for test cases in the project?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Detailed concrete test cases since many re-runs of the tests are expected

  • Logical test cases supported by concrete test cases to allow for traceability and enable future changes

  • Concrete test cases only since the end-users have extensive domain knowledge

  • Logical test cases only since the end-user have extensive domain knowledge and many changes are expected thus reducing testware maintenance effort
