Q1:
Chapter: 1 - The Tasks of the Test Analyst in the Test Process
Why does a test analyst carry out the same activities in every increment of an incremental development model?
A
Because the activities of the test analyst in each increment are limited to test analysis and test design
B
Because in each increment, the test analyst is involved as soon as the development begins
C
Because each increment develops a new part of the software, which needs to be tested
D
Because development is also done in cycles consisting of the same activities in every increment
Correct Answer:
C :
Because each increment develops a new part of the software, which needs to be tested

Q2:
Chapter: 1 - The Tasks of the Test Analyst in the Test Process
During test analysis, the test analyst decides to use the 2-value boundary value analysis technique for a domain “age” representing a client’s age, which is used to determine the client’s discount.
Which of the following tasks should the test analyst perform during test design?
A
Define the test condition: “The system assigns a discount for a child less than 18 and a senior older than 64.”
B
Store the identified boundary values for clients’ ages in a test data repository to support automated test execution
C
Determine whether or not the test cases should document the specific amount of the expected discounts
D
Write an automated test script using keyword-driven testing: “SetAge(18); VerifyDiscountIsNotAssigned().”
Correct Answer:
C :

The specific period of time during which the simulator is needed
B
A specific backup and restore procedure for the virtual health cards
C
The organizational unit which shall provide and maintain the simulator
