ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level - Technical Test Analyst (V4.0) : CTAL-TTA_Syll19_4.0

Below is the pseudo-code for the Win program:

The bingo program contains a data flow anomaly. Which data flow anomaly can be found in this program?

• A. It is recommended to use a variable instead of the hard-coded print results "Win" and *Loose".
• B. The program does not contain any comments.
• C. Variable 'D" is defined but subsequently not used.
• D. Variable 'A" is not assigned a value before using it.

Consider the following specification:

If you are flying with an economy ticket, there is a possibility that you may get upgraded to business class, especially if you hold a gold card in the airline's frequent flier program. If you don't hold a gold card, there is a possibility that you will get 'bumped' off the flight if it is full when you check in late.
This is shown in the control flow graph below. Note that each box (i.e., statement, decision) has been numbered.
Three tests have been run:
Test 1: Gold card holder who gets upgraded to business class
Test 2: Non-gold card holder who stays in economy
Test 3: A person who is bumped from the flight
What is the level of decision coverage achieved by these three tests?

• A. 75%
• B. 80%
• C. 60%
• D. 67%

Which of the following does NOT contribute to a more effective review preparation by the Technical Test Analyst?

• A. The usage of review checklists.
• B. Managing logging rate (number of defects logged per minute during the meeting).
• C. Review training for the Technical Test Analyst.
• D. Ensure that participants spend enough time during preparation, e.g.. by managing checking rate (number of pages checked per hour during review preparation).

Subject to testing is a software system (COTS) for Project Administration and Control (PACS). PACS is a multi-project system for controlling the project time, e.g., in terms of scheduling and tracking, and managing the productivity of projects, e.g., in terms of effort and deliverables.
During various interviews with stakeholders the following information was gathered:
* Using PACS is not business critical. There is no impact such as high financial losses or problems to the operational continuity of an organization. Its application is not critical since the software package does not support directly the operational, or the primary, business processes of an organization. It supports (project) management in the project planning and tracking process. Of course, it will be highly annoying for users if the system "goes down" from time to time. Although this does not have a high impact for the business process as a whole, the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) still needs to be at a good level to be successful in the market.
* Users of PACS typically have an academic educational level, but have no prior experience with this particular type of project management software. The system will be used by a large number of users within an organization.
* The system will be used on a regular basis, e.g., several times per day by project managers and several times per week by project employees. This means that the system will not be used very intensively, often only for some data input or an information request. Its usage is not considered to be very time-critical.
* The data is recorded on-line and real-time. The system is expected to run in multiple hardware environments in various network environments. It is also expected that changes in the operational environments will happen in the upcoming period that also need to be supported.
Based on the information provided by the stakeholder, which combination of non-functional quality characteristics should you propose to test as part of your test approach?

• A. Performance efficiency and Portability
• B. Security and Reliability
• C. Reliability and Performance efficiency
• D. Reliability and Portability

Which of the following is a valid reason for including performance testing in a test approach?

• A. To mitigate the risk of long response times to defects reported by users and/or customers.
• B. To evaluate the ability of a system to handle increasing levels of load.
• C. To evaluate the system's tolerance to faults in terms of handling unexpected input values.
• D. To reduce the threat of code insertion into a web page which may be exercised by subsequent users.
