ISQI CTAL-TAE_V2 Value Pack (Frequently Bought Together)

A TAS that performs automated testing in a single test environment was successfully manually installed and configured from a central repository, with all its components in the correct versions. It was also verified that all TAS components in this environment are capable of providing reliable and repeatable performance. The TAS will be used to run several suites of automated regression test scripts on various SUTs in the test environment. Your current goal is to complete all preliminary verifications to ensure that the TAS works correctly. Which of the following activities would you perform FIRST?

• A. Check whether the TAS connectivity to all required internal systems, external systems, and interfaces is available
• B. Run a given suite multiple times using TAS to determine whether all regression test scripts always provide the same result
• C. Check whether all regression test scripts in a given suite have expected results
• D. Create scripts to automatically install and configure the TAS in the test environment from the central repository

Which of the following practices can be used to specify the active (i.e., actually available) features for each release of the SUT and determine the corresponding automated tests that must be executed for a given release?

• A. The use of feature files
• B. Feature-driven development
• C. The use of feature toggles
• D. Test-driven development

As a TAE, you are evaluating a test automation tool to automate some UI tests for a web app. The automated tests will first locate the required HTML elements on the web page using their corresponding identifiers (locators), then perform actions on those elements, and finally check the presence of any expected text for an HTML element. These tests are independent of each other and are organized into a test suite that must be run every night against the most recent build of the web app. There is a high risk that the web app will crash while running some automated tests. Based only on the given information, which of the following is your MOST important concern related to the evaluation of the test automation tool?

• A. Does the test automation tool offer a feature to create a mock server that simulates the behavior of a real API by accepting requests and returning responses?
• B. Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different feature sets?
• C. Does the test automation tool provide a feature to specify automated tests in a descriptive meta- language that is not directly executable on the web app?
• D. Does the test automation tool offer a feature to restore the web app, recover from the failed test, skip such tests, and resume the next one in the suite?

You have agreed with your organization's managers to conduct a pilot project to introduce test automation.
Managers' expectations about the benefits of automation are too optimistic. Which of the following is LEAST relevant when deciding the scope of the pilot project's objectives?

• A. Evaluate the suitability of different test automation tools based on the technology stack used by the applications for which the automated tests will be developed
• B. Evaluate the performance of an organization's network infrastructure in terms of factors such as availability, bandwidth, latency, packet loss, and jitter
• C. Evaluate the knowledge and skills of people who will be involved in automating test cases for applicable test automation frameworks and technologies
• D. Evaluate the potential cost savings and benefits (e.g., faster test execution, better test coverage) of using automated testing versus manual testing

Which of the following layers within the TAA contains technology-specific implementations that enable automated tests to have the execution of their logical actions result in actual interaction with the appropriate interfaces of the SUT?

• A. Test execution layer
• B. Test generation layer
• C. Test definition layer
• D. Test adaptation layer
