Free BCS TM12 Exam Dumps Questions & Answers

Which of the following statements about management of product quality risks in mature organizations with respect to the lifecycle, is true?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Mature organizations address product quality risks associated to non-functional characteristics only during the system test phase
• B.Mature organizations are aware that risk management of product quality risks only occurs during testing
• C.Mature organizations are aware that the contribution of testing to analysis of product quality risks is very important. The analysis should occur throughout the entire lifecycle
• D.Mature organizations don't waste time identifying the sources of risks. They only focus on identifying product quality risks

For which of the following activities would the costs be classified as a cost of detection?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Training developers to better understand the new features of the coding language they will use on the project
• B.Fixing field failures
• C.Writing test specifications according to the test design
• D.Re-running a test case, during the system testing phase, to verify that a fix eliminates a previously found defect

Based on the historical data of 5 past and similar projects, you have calculated these average numbers of defects detected in system testing:
-for each 10000 LOC (lines of code), 200 defects
-for each person-month of development team effort, 49 defects
You want to use this information to perform estimation for a new project.
The project manager tells you that he/she has estimated 20000 new LOC for this new project.
Four developers work for four months on this project before system testing.
During system testing, 797 defects are discovered.
Assume that the system test of this new project is using the same amount of work as spent in the past projects.
Based on this information only, which of the following statement is certainly true about this project?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.The number of defects found during the system test phase on the new project is approximately proportional to the development team effort
• B.More LOC than planned have been delivered to system testing with a higher defect density than the past projects
• C.40000 LOC have been delivered to system testing (against the 20000 LOC planned by the project manager)
• D.The code for the new project contains a higher defect density than the code of the past projects

You are performing a quality risk analysis for a CSCI (Computer Software Configuration Item) used to implement a
CBIT (Continuous Built-In Test) module of a safety-critical system.
During the quality risk analysis you are trying to identify the ways in which failures of the CBIT module can occur, for each of them trying to determine the potential causes and likely effects, and the risk level (calculated as the product of three factors: severity, occurrence and detection).
Which of the following risk analysis techniques are you working with?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Failure Mode and Effect Analysis
• B.Cost of Exposure
• C.A lightweight product risk analysis technique
• D.Wide Band Delphi

Assume you are the Test Manager for a new software release of an e-commerce application.
The server farm consists of six servers providing different capabilities. Each capability is provided through a set of web services.
The requirements specification document contains several SLAs (Service Level Agreements) like the following:
SLA-001: 99.5 percent of all transactions shall have a response time less than five seconds under a load of up-to 5000 concurrent users
The main objective is to assure that all the SLAs specified in the requirements specification document will be met before system release. You decide to apply a risk-based testing strategy and an early risk analysis confirms that performance is high risk. You can count on a well-written requirements specification and on a model of the system behavior under various load levels produced by the system architect.
Which of the following test activities would you expect to be the less important ones to achieve the test objectives in this scenario?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A.Monitor the SLAs after the system has been released into the production environment
• B.Perform unit performance testing for each single web service
• C.Perform static performance testing by reviewing the architectural model of the system under various load levels
• D.Perform system performance testing, consisting of several performance testing sessions, to verify if all the SLAs have been met
