Your company is about to start a project to replace an old sales and merchandising system with a new version that will be based on modern platforms. The main requirements for the system are:
1. Loading sales data, sent electronically from the stores each evening, into a central database.
2. Producing sales reports for the merchandisers, whose job is to manage stock levels in stores.
3. Producing forecast reports, used to predict future demand for each product, based on a combination of sales history and forecasting parameters. The parameters will be entered by the merchandisers into a browser-based front end and the reports will be produced overnight. The users will be able to retrieve the reports, on screen or in print, via an interactive feature.
Requirements 1 and 2 were already met by the old system and will be rewritten in the new system with some minor functional changes. The sales data will, as before, be loaded in an overnight batch run. There have been problems with the old system at peak periods when this run has taken longer than scheduled, so that dependent jobs could not finish before the start of the next working day. The Data Centre manager requires that the new system's overnight batch runs take 10% less time than the old one, including the new reports, to allow time for all jobs to complete.
Requirement 3 is new. The functionality provided by the UI will be simple and the Sales & Merchandising manager requires that it be easy to use.
The data for testing the reports will be extracted from the old system in production and will be anonymized before use.
The system will be developed using an Agile lifecycle with iterations of fixed length. This will be the first full deployment of this methodology, which has just completed a successful pilot. It is a relatively simple development and is expected to be completed in three releases, each taking approximately two months.
Until now the company has not automated test execution, but the Agile pilot identified this as a critical success factor. You are an experienced TAE and have been recruited to implement test automation, and you are now considering what the TAS for this should look like.
Which option contains the THREE MOST important considerations in determining the nature of the TAS that will be needed for this project?
i) The tool(s) chosen for functional test automation should support scripting techniques that will be compatible with a performance test tool.
ii) The tool(s) chosen for functional test automation should support scripting techniques that will be useful for usability testing.
iii) The TAS should support testing at the component integration, system, system integration and acceptance levels.
iv) The TAS should support testing at the component, component integration, system and acceptance levels.
v) The TAS should support the handling of the large quantities of data that will be needed to test the forecast reports.

You are currently conducting a Proof of Concept (PoC) aimed at selecting a tool that will be used for the development of a TAS. This TAS will exclusively be used by one team within your organization to implement automated UI-level test scripts for two web apps. The two tools selected for the PoC use JavaScript
/TypeScript to implement the automated test scripts and offer capture and playback capabilities. Three test cases for each of the two web apps were selected to be automated during the PoC. The PoC will compare these two tools in terms of their effectiveness in recognizing and interacting with UI widgets exercised by the test cases, to quickly determine whether test automation is possible and which tool is better. Which of the following TAFs is BEST suited for conducting the PoC?

You are working for a clothing retailer that has big stores in many cities. Your TAS, for the first time, has just been used for reliability and stress testing of the overnight batch processing that collects sales transactions from the stores and adds them to a data warehouse; functional suitability tests have been reused for these runs.
All tests have finished normally but their results have not been satisfactory, and it has been difficult to understand the nature of the defect or defects that have been causing the failures.
What data, if added to the test logs, would MOST likely help with debugging in this situation?
a) Dynamic data about the status of the test platforms
b) Screenshots taken during test execution
c) Crash dumps and stack traces
d) Values of randomly generated test input data
e) Counts of the quantity of test cases executed during each run

In a first possible implementation, the automated test scripts within a suite locate and interact with elements of a web UI indirectly through the browsers using browser-specific drivers and APIs, provided by an automated test tool used as part of the TAS. In an alternative implementation, these test scripts locate and interact with elements of the same web UI directly at the HTML level by accessing the DOM (Document Object Model) and internal JavaScript code. The first possible implementation:
正確答案: B

A TAS is used to run on a test environment a suite of automated regression tests, written at the UI level, on different releases of a web app: all executions complete successfully, always providing correct results (i.e., producing neither false positives nor false negatives). The tests, all independent of each other, consist of executable test scripts based on the flow model pattern which has been implemented in a three-layer TAF (test scripts, business logic, core libraries) by expanding the page object model via the facade pattern. Currently the suite takes too long to run, and the test scripts are considered too long in terms of LOC (Lines of Code).
