NEW QUESTION 20
As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within yourorganization. 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 testautomation 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?
- A. A and E
- B. C and D
- C. A and C
- D. B and E
Answer: D

Answer: B
NEW QUESTION 24
Which of the following statement about the implementation of automated regression testing is FALSE?
- A. When automating regression tests, the initialization steps set the testpreconditions should be automated wherever possible
- B. When automating regression tests, the structure of automated tests must always be thesame as the corresponding manual tests
- C. When automating regression tests, the corresponding manual tests should have already been executed to verify they operate correctly
- D. When automating regression tests, consideration should be given to how much time would be saved by automation
Answer: D
NEW QUESTION 25
A TAS uses a commercial test automation tool and the default logs generated by the inconsistent formats such as different types of messages (pass/fail steps, screenshots, warnings, etc.) To solve this issue some custom logging functions have been created from the test scripts, making it possible tolog the different types of messages with the same format. However, this may cause a problem due to excessive size of the logs which can make it difficult to find the required information. Assume that all the default logs will be disabled when running theautomated tests and that some tests will not generate excessively sized logs.
Which of the following represents the BEST suggestion for implementing the custom logging functions?
- A. Implement the custom logging functions to support different levels of tracing
- B. Implement the custom logging functions without saving timestamps
- C. Implement the custom logging functions without saving stack traces
- D. Implement the custom logging functions to redirect the logs to multiple files
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 26
What is NOT a factor in considering when you are asked to ensure an effective transition from manual to automated tests?
- A. Correctness of test data and test cases
- B. The look and feel of the SUT
- C. Complexity to automate the manual test cases
- D. The controllability of the SUT
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION 27
Assume that you are the TAE responsible for the correct functioning of a TAS, deployed in a test environment that consists of a few machines running the same version of the operating system. The TAS has been working and stable since its deployment, it has been used to run an automated test suite consisting of many similar automated test. The infrastructure team is planning to update the operating system on these machines by installing a new the service pack for security reasons. Since the vendor of the operating system assurance full backward compatibility, the infrastructure team assurance that there will be no impacts on the functioning of the TAS.
What is the BEST approach to confirm the correct functioning of the TAS in this scenario?
- A. Do not run any tests because you can immediately confirm the correct functioning of the automated test suite
- B. Verify the behavior of the automated tests by running a small tests, then gradually run the remaining tests to confirm the correct functioning of the whole automated test suite.
- C. Verify the behavior of the whole automated test suite by running all the automated tests
- D. Make sure that the infrastructure team has completed installing the service pack on the machines where SUT is running, then run the whole automated test suite to verify its behavior
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION 28
Consider a TAS that uses a keyword-driven framework. The SUT is a web application and there is a large set of keywords available for writingthe automated tests that relate to highly specific user actions linked directly to the GUI of the SUT. The automated test written with the keywords are statically analyzed by a custom tool which highlight's repeated instances of identical sequence of keywords. The waiting mechanism implemented by the TAS for a webpage load is based on a synchronous sampling within a given timeout. The TAS allows checking a webpage load every seconds until a timeout value
- A. Changing the wait mechanism to explicit hard-coded waits
- B. Implementing keywords with a higher level of granularity
- C. Establishing an error recovery process for TAS and SUT
- D. Changing the scripting approach to data-driven scripting
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 29
You are executing the first test run of a test automation suite of 200 tests. All the relevant information related to the state of the SUT and to the automated test execution is stored in a small database. During the Automated test run you observe that the first 10 test pass, while an abnormal termination occurs when executing the
11thtest. This test does not complete its execution and the overall execution of the suite is aborted. An immediate analysis of the abnormal termination is expected to be time consuming and you have been asked to produce a detailed report of the execution results for the first test run, as soon as possible.
What is the MOST important FIRST step to be taken immediately afterthe abnormal occurred when executing the 11thtest?
- A. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 1sttest.
- B. Return the database to a consistent state that allows subsequent test to run
- C. Take a backup of the database in its current state. So It can be analyzed later
- D. Re-run the test automation suite starting from the 12thtest
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION 30
You are working on a TAS for standalone application. The automated tests are developed based on a automation framework that allows interaction with GUI elements using on object orientated API. The GUI elements include menus, buttons, radio buttons, text toolbars and their properties.
Whilst automating a test, you have discovered that the GUI elements of some third party components are not identifiable by the automated tool you are using.
Which of the following is the FIRST step that you take to investigate this issue?
- A. Verify the testability support with the providers of the third party components
- B. Adopt an approach that uses the coordinates of the GUI elements instead
- C. Verify whether naming standards for variables and have been defined for the current automation solution
- D. Verify whether the GUI identification depends on the browser.
Answer: A
