contingency actions required for the project risks.
B. Obtain the resources needed to completely cover each product risk with tests and
transfer responsibility for the project risks to the project manager.
C. Execute sufficient tests for the product risks, based on the likelihood and impact of
each product risk and execute mitigation actions for all project risks.

Q. 6: For a test procedure that is checking modifications of customers on a database, which

Q. 10: In a defect report, the tester makes the following statement, 'At this point, I expect
to receive an error message explaining the rejection of this invalid input and asking me to
enter a valid input. Instead the system accepts the input, displays an hourglass for between
one and five seconds and finally terminates abnormally, giving the message, "Unexpected
data type: 15. Click to continue." '
