Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the residual risks
associated with the identified product risks, at the end of the first week of test execution?
Number of correct responses: 1
K32 credits
A. Since R3 is the only risk for which all test cases havepassed, the risk has been reduced by 20%
B. The test execution status table indicates that the risk has been reduced by 56%
C. The residual risk level cant be determined, because it requires that all the test cases have been executed
D. The testexecution table doesnt give an indication of the risk level of the open defects and the test cases that failed or are not run yet
Answer: D
Question #12 (Topic: Topic 1)
Testing Process
The following are the exit criteria described in the test plan of a software product:
EX1. The test suite for the product must ensure that at least each quality risk item is
covered by at least one test case (a quality risk item can be covered by more test cases).
EX2. All test cases in the test suite must be run during theexecution phase.
EX3. Defects are classified into two categories: C (critical defect) and NC (non-critical
defect). No known C defects shall exist in the product at the end of the test execution
phase.
Which of the following information is useless when the specified exit criteria is evaluated?

Which of the following statements describing the consequences of specifying test
conditions at a detailed levelis NOT true?
Number of correct responses: 1
K21 credit
A. In an environment where the test basis is continuously changing, it is recommended to specify test conditions at a detailed level in order to achieve a better maintainability
B. The specification of test conditions at a detailed level can be effective when no formal requirements or other development work products are available
C. The specification of test conditions at a detailed level can require the implementation of an adequate level of formality across the team
D. For system testing, the specification of test conditions at a detailed level, carried out early in the project as soon as the test basis is established, can contribute to defect prevention
Answer: A
Question #14 (Topic: Topic 1)

Question #15 (Topic: Topic 2)
Test Management
You are working on a project to develop an authentication system for an e-commerce
website. This system provides two features: Registration and authentication. Two different
development teams develop these two features.
There is a high likelihood that the delivery of the authentication feature to the test team will
be three weeks later. To complete the registration the user must provide the following
registration inputs: Name, surname, birthdate, fiscal code and he/she can select a
username and a password.
A registered user can be a special user or a normal user. To beidentified as a special user,
he/she must also provide, during the registration process, a voucher possibly received from
the IT department.
Access is granted only if a user is registered and the password is correct: In all other cases
access is denied. If the registered user is a special user and the password is wrong, a
special warning is shown on the system console.
You are currently performing a quality risk analysis using FMEA.
Based only on the given information, which of the following is NOT a product risk that could
be identified during the quality risk analysis?
