Question # 6

After a selection process you have selected a test management tool that is going be introduced in your organization and used by your test team in a pilot project.

You have also developed a training plan for the other members of your test team. In collaboration with the administrator of the tool you have also devised standard ways of managing, storing and maintaining the tool and its assets including backup/restore procedures. You have also analyzed standard formats supported by the tool (CSV, XLS, XML, etc.) to export, import and archive all the information managed by the tool itself (requirements, test case specifications, test plans etc.) for compliance with the most important test management tools, in order to minimize the impacts of migrating this information to a new tool that could replace the existing one in the future.

Question # 8

Assume you are the Test Manager in charge of independent testing for avionics applications. You are in charge of testing for a project to implement three different CSCI (Computer Software Configuration Item): - a BOOT-X CSCI that must be certified at level B of the DO-178B standard - a DIAG-X CSCI that must be certified at level C of the DO-178B standard - a DRIV-X CSCI that must be certified at level A of the DO-178B standard These are three different software modules written in C language to run on a specific hardware platform. You have been asked to select a single code coverage tool to perform the mandatory code coverage measurements, in order to meet the structural coverage criteria prescribed by the DO-178B standard. This tool must be qualified as a verification tool under DO-178B. Since there are significant budget constraints to purchase this tool, you are evaluating an open-source tool that is able to provide different types of code coverage. This tool meets perfectly your technical needs in terms of the programming language and the specific hardware platform (it supports also the specific C-compiler).   The source code of the tool is available. Your team could easily customize the tool to meet the project needs. This tool is not qualified as a verification tool under the DO-178B. Which of the following are the three main concerns related to that open-source tool selection? K4 3 credits (2 credits out credits correct, 1 credit point)

B. Does the tool have a good general usability?  
C. What are the costs to qualify the tool as a verification tool under the DO-178B?  
D. Is the installation procedure of the tool easy?  
E. Does the tool require a system with more than 4GB of RAM memory?  
F. Is the licensing scheme of the tool compatible with the confidentiality needs of the avionics company?

Test process improvement is important because being focused only on the test process it can provide recommendations to improve the test process itself, but it can’t indicate or suggest improvement to areas of the development process II. Test process improvement is important because it is much more effective than software process improvement to improve the quality of a software system III. Test process improvement is important because several process improvement models (STEP, TPI Next, TMMi) have been developed over the years IV. Test process improvement is important because every organization, regardless of the context, should always achieve the maximum level of maturity of testing described in the test improvement models such as TMMi Which of the following answers is correct? K2 1 credit

A. I. and IV. are true; II. and III. are false

Question # 11

A chart showing the trend in the lag time from defect reporting to resolution during system testing is also available. The chart shows that the daily closure period is consistently and significantly above the rolling closure period for a long period of the system testing phase. Almost all defects found during system testing have been related to the system as a whole, not related to single units or integrations issues. Almost all quality risks have been addressed during the unit and integration testing phase and no residual quality risks were present in the integrated system. This has been confirmed by exploratory testing sessions performed during system testing, targeted at finding defects in these quality risk areas. Based on the given information only, which one of the following areas would you expect to be considered more in the retrospective meeting in order to be improved? K3 3 credits

A. The requirements review  
B. The defect management process  
C. The quality risk analysis process  
D. The system design and architecture design reviews
