Consider a TAS that is going to bedeployed for the first time. The TAS requires share resources and run it its own test environment. The infrastructure for the TAS has been created along with maintenance procedures. It is very unlikely the TAS will be required to work in other target Environments. There is a high-risk that when the TAS is deployed in its own test environment, a number of existing application will no longer work because of conflicts with the existing shared resources.
Which of the following activities would you expect tobe MOST effective at mitigating the risk associated with the first deployment of the TAS?

• A.Testing the TAS for regressions due to optimization that fix non-functional issues.
• B.Testing the TAS for ITS ability to run a shared test environment
• C.Testing the TAS for its ability to be implemented in other target test environments.
• D.Testing the TAS for application compatibility issues in the target environment

Consider a TAS that uses a keyword-driven framework. The SUT is a web application and there is a large set of keywords available for writingthe automated tests that relate to highly specific user actions linked directly to the GUI of the SUT. The automated test written with the keywords are statically analyzed by a custom tool which highlight's repeated instances of identical sequence of keywords. The waiting mechanism implemented by the TAS for a webpage load is based on a synchronous sampling within a given timeout. The TAS allows checking a webpage load every seconds until a timeout value

• A.Establishing an error recovery process for TAS and SUT
• B.Changing the wait mechanism to explicit hard-coded waits
• C.Implementing keywords with a higher level of granularity
• D.Changing the scripting approach to data-driven scripting

As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within yourorganization. The projects require that tool to work effectively and efficiently with SUT's in distributed environments. The test automated tool also needs to interface with other existing test tools (test management tool and defect tracking tool.) The existing test tools subject to planned updates and their interface to the test automated tool may not work property after these updates.
Which of the following are the two LEAST important concerns related to the evaluation of the test automation in this scenario?
* Is the test automation tool able to launch processors and execute test cases on multiple machines in different environments?
* Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different sets?
* Does the testautomation tool have a large feature set, but only part of the features will be sets?
* Do the release notes for the planned updates on existing specify the impacts on their interfaces to other tools?
Does the test automation tool need to install specific libraries that could impact the SUT?

• A.C and D
• B.B and E
• C.A and E
• D.A and C

A SUT has an existing automated test suite.
Which of the following statements relating to the introduction of new features in the SUT is TRUE?

• A.The test automation engineer should work with the business analysts to ensure the new feature is testable
• B.Automated tests are not affected by the introduction of a new feature and running them against the new SUT is a waste of effort
• C.The introduction of a new feature could require updates or additions to the testware components
• D.It is generally more difficult to automate test cases for a new feature as the developmenthas not yet started

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of test automation?

• A.The ability to perform tests which would be difficult orimpossible to execute manually
• B.The ability to run more tests in less time and therefore to make it possible to run them more often
• C.The ability to find more defects with the same tests, compared to executing the same test manually
• D.The ability to enable a better use of skilled testers by freeing them from repetitive and boring tasks
