CH5 – Test Management
Number of Questions – 8 (K1-3, K2-3, K3-2) Duration – 170 minutes
1] Why is independent testing important?
a) Independent testing is usually cheaper than testing your own work.

b) Independent testing is more effective at finding defects
c) Independent testers should determine the processes and methodologies
used.
d) Independent testers are dispassionate about whether the project succeeds
or fails.
2] What is the primary difference between the test plan, the test design
specification, and the test procedure specification?
a) The test plan describes one or more levels of testing, the test design
specification identifies the associated high-level test cases and a test
procedure specification describes the actions for executing a test.
b) The test plan is for managers, the test design specification is for
programmers and the test procedure specification is for testers who are
automating tests.
c) The test plan is the least thorough, the test procedure specification is the
most thorough and the test design specification is midway between the two.
d) The test plan is finished in the first third of the project, the test design
specification is finished in the middle third of the project and the test
procedure specification is finished in the last third of the project.

planning, is assessed during test execution?
a) Test tasks
b) Environmental needs
c) Exit criteria
d) Test team training
4] Consider the following exit criteria which might be found in a test plan:
I. No known customer-critical defects.
II. All interfaces between components tested.
III. 100% code coverage of all units.
IV. All specified requirements satisfied.
V. System functionality matches legacy system for all business rules.
Which of the following statements is true about whether these exit criteria belong
in an acceptance test plan?
a) All statements belong in an acceptance test plan.

b) Only statement I belongs in an acceptance test plan.
c) Only statements I, II, and V belong in an acceptance test plan.
d) Only statements I, IV, and V belong in an acceptance test plan.
5] During test execution, the test manager describes the following situation to the
project team: ‘90% of the test cases have been run. 20% of the test cases have
identified defects. 127 defects have been found. 112 defects have been fixed and
have passed confirmation testing. Of the remaining 15 defects, project

management has decided that they do not need to be fixed prior to release.' Which
of the following is the most reasonable interpretation of this test status report?
a) The remaining 15 defects should be confirmation tested prior to release

b) The remaining 10% of test cases should be run prior to release.
c) The system is now ready for release with no further testing or development
effort
d) The programmers should focus their attention on fixing the remaining known
defects prior to release
6] During an early period of test execution, a defect is located, resolved and

confirmed as resolved by re-testing, but is seen again later during subsequent test
execution. Which of the following is a testing-related aspect of configuration
management that is most likely to have broken down?
a) Traceability
b) Confirmation testing
c) Configuration control
d) Test documentation management
7] A product risk analysis meeting is held during the project planning period. Which
of the following determines the level of risk?
a) Difficulty of fixing related problems in code

b) The harm that might result to the user
c) The price for which the software is sold
d) The technical staff in the meeting
8] You are writing a test plan using the IEEE 829 template and are currently
completing the Risks and Contingencies section. Which of the following is most
likely to be listed as a project risk?

a) Unexpected illness of a key team member
b) Excessively slow transaction-processing time
c) Data corruption under network congestion
d) Failure to handle a key use case
9] You and the project stakeholders develop a list of product risks and project risks
during the planning stage of a project. What else should you do with those lists of
risks during test planning?
a) Determine the extent of testing required for the product risks and the
mitigation and 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.
d) No further risk management action is required at the test planning stage
10] In an incident 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." '
This statement is likely to be found in which of the following sections of an IEEE
829 standard incident report?
a) Summary
b) Impact
c) Item pass/fail criteria
d) Incident description

11] According to the ISTQB Glossary, what do we call a document that describes
any event that occurred during testing which requires further investigation?
a) A bug report
b) A defect report
c) An incident report
d) A test summary report
12] For a test procedure that is checking modifications of customers on a database,

which two steps below would be the lowest priority if we didn't have time to
execute all of the steps?
1 Open database and confirm existing customer
2 Change customer's marital status from single to married
3 Change customer's street name from Parks Road to Park Road
4 Change customer's credit limit from 500 to 750
5 Replace customer's first name with exactly the same first name 6 Close the
customer record and close the database
a) Tests 1 and 4
b) Tests 2 and 3
c) Tests 5 and 6
d) Tests 3 and 5
13] In an incident 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." '
This statement is likely to be found in which of the following sections of an IEEE

829 standard incident report?
a) Summary
b) Impact
c) Item pass/fail criteria
d) Incident description
14] What test roles (or parts in the testing process) is a developer most likely to
perform?
i. Executing component integration tests.
ii. Static analysis.

a) Project risks rarely affect product risk.

b) Product risks rarely affect project risk
c) A risk-based approach is more likely to be used to mitigate product rather
than project risks.
