CTAL-TM_UK Real Exam Questions

Assume you are working on a CAS (Conditional Access System) for Pay-TV that allows the access, selection and transfer of services and media to authorized users. Authorized users can choose their services through different channels: Web Customer Portal, IVR (Interactive Voice Response), Call Centre and SMS. The system uses a Smart Card to receive and decrypt the broadcasted encrypted control words which allow decrypting pay-per-view TV. Every authorized user must have a Smart Card and a Set-Top Box to view the contents. The following is an excerpt from the product risk analysis document: Both likelihood and impact have been rated on the following scale: (1 ?Very low, 2 ?Low, 3 ?Medium, 4 ?High, 5 ?Very High). The required test environment and code have been delivered. All test cases for each identified product risk item have been written and are ready to be executed. The Database used to contain the Smart Cards is empty and so only new Smart Cards can be used during test execution. A Smart Card can only be activated if it has been previously pre-activated. This means the post- conditions for the execution of the test cases to test the pre-activation of the Smart Card are the pre-conditions for activation of the Smart Card. Which of the following statements represents the most effective contribution of the stakeholders to the completion of the failure mode analysis table?

During the follow-up phase the following conditions are checked: X1. The code has been completely reviewed X2. All the identified defects have been correctly fixed and the modified code has been compiled successfully and run through all the static analyzers used by the project without warnings and errors X3. The modified code is available under the configuration management system with a new version number for the specified CI If these conditions are fulfilled then the review process terminates. Which of the following characteristics of a formal review is missing in this description?

Assume that you are the Test Manager for a small insurance application development project. You have decided to adopt a risk-based testing strategy: 5 product risks (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5) have been identified and their levels of risk have been assessed. 10 test cases (T1, ..., T10) have been designed to cover all the product risks. The following table shows the risk level and the test cases associated to the identified product risks (higher risk level means higher risk): You are not confident with the assessment of the risk level and you suspect that it will be possible to find high-priority bugs in low-risk areas. Furthermore the period for test execution is very short. Your goal is to test all the product risks in a risk-based way, while assuring that each product risk gets at least some amount of testing. Which of the following answers describes the best test execution schedule in this scenario?

Assume you are managing the system testing phase of a project. The system test execution period is scheduled to twenty weeks. All tests are manual tests. You are following a risk-driven test approach. During the last staff meeting the project manager tells you new deadlines that will not allow completion of all the system tests. Which of the following would you expect to be the best way to respond to this situation?

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?
