QUESTION 21
Consider the pseudo code provided below regarding a customer request for cash withdrawal from an ATM.
If the customer has sufficient funds in their account
OR the customer has the credit granted
THEN the ATM machine pays out the requested amount to the customer
Which of the following test cases would be the result of applying multiple condition testing, but would NOT be the result of applying modified condition/decision testing?

TC 1: Customer has sufficient funds. Credit has not been granted.

TC 2: Customer does not have sufficient funds. Credit has been granted.

TC 3: Customer does not have sufficient funds. Credit has not been granted.

TC 4: Customer has sufficient funds. Credit has been granted.

QUESTION 22
At which test level would reliability testing most likely be performed?

Static testing

Component testing

System testing

Functional acceptance testing

QUESTION 23
Within the world of consumer electronics, the amount of embedded software is growing rapidly. The amount of software in high-end television sets has increased by a factor of about eight over the last six years. In addition, the market of consumer electronics has been faced with a 5 -10% price erosion per year. The price of a product is, among a number of other things, determined by the microcontroller used. Therefore, the use of ROM and RAM remains under high pressure in consumer electronic products, leading to severe restrictions on code size.
You are a Technical Test Analyst involved in the review of the architecture of this project.
Which of the following issues would be MOST important to focus on during the review and when verifying the correct implementation?

Connection pooling

Caching

Transaction concurrency

Lazy instantiation

QUESTION 24
Which of the following is a generic risk factor that should be considered by a Technical Test Analyst during a product risk analysis?

Frequency of use of the affected feature by end-users.

Complexity of new technology.

Visibility of failure leading to negative publicity and potential image damage.

High change rate of business requirements.

QUESTION 25
At which test level would performance efficiency testing most likely be performed?

Component testing

Integration testing

System testing

User acceptance testing

QUESTION 26
Assume you are involved in testing a Health Insurance Calculation system.
At the main screen one can enter information for a new client. The information to be provided consists of last name, first name and date of birth. After confirmation of the information, the system checks the age of the potential new client and calculates a proposed premium.
The system also has the option to request information for an existing client, using the client’s ID number.
A keyword-driven automation approach is being used to automate most of the regression testing.
Based on the information provided, which TWO of the options provided would be the MOST LIKELY keywords for this application? (Choose two.)

Remove_Client

Enter_Client

Print_Premium

Select_Client

Exclude_Client

QUESTION 27
As a technical test analyst, you are involved in a risk analysis session using the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis technique. You are calculating risk priorities. Which of the following are the major factors in this exercise?

Severity and priority

Functionality, reliability, usability, maintainability, efficiency and portability

QUESTION 28
You are working on project where re-use of software is an objective. You are involved in the project as a Technical Test Analyst and have been given the task to develop a checklist for code reviews.
Which question from the list below should you implement as part of the code review checklist?

Can each item be implemented with the techniques, tools, and resources available?

Are all modules, data, and interfaces uniquely identified?

Is it possible during acceptance testing to verity whether the item has been satisfied?

QUESTION 29
Which of the following statements about performance testing tools is NOT correct?

Typical metrics and reports provided by performance testing tools include the number of simulated users throughout the test, and the number and type of transactions generated by the simulated users, and the arrival rate of the transactions.

Significant factors to consider in the implementation of performance testing tools include the flexibility of the tool to allow different operational profiles to be easily implemented, and the hardware and network bandwidth required to generate the load.

Performance testing tools typically drive the application by simulating user interaction at the graphical user interface level to more accurately measure response times.

Performance testing tools generate a load by simulating a large number of virtual users following their designated operational profiles to generate specific volumes of input data.
