Question 3 of 10

You are developing the code that controls an industrial Espresso machine which will be operated by waiting staff in restaurants. The machine is rather complicated and has lots of switches and buttons, so in the next iteration instructions will be provided to the operator on a small LCD screen. A User Story for the Operator-Instructions module is as follows:

“As an operator of the Espresso machine, I would like to know how to steam milk, so I can add steamed milk to the coffee.”

The following is a list of risks identified for this story, with assigned probability and impact.

A.Operators will not read the instructions and will try various switches and buttons until something works. Probability: Low. Impact: Low

B.The instructions may be incorrect or appear in the wrong order. Probability: Low. Impact: High

C.An untrained customer will attempt to use the coffee machine. Probability: High. Impact: High

D.A small child may try to steam milk. Probability: High. Impact: Low

Question 6 of 10

6. You are working in a software development company which, for many years, used a sequential development model and was organized into separate departments for each functional group (e.g. business analysts, developers, testers) located within their own office space. Your organization has recently changed to a SCRUM agile framework. Which of the following is an important organizational and behavioral best practice for a tester in the SCRUM team that should have also been practiced when using the sequential model?

A.Resilient testing means that the testing process is capable of dealing with rapid changes throughout the development process with test plans being updated during each iteration.

B.Credibility means that the tester must share information with the stakeholders about the test process so that they find the selected test strategy and testing activities trustworthy.

C.Cross-functional teamwork means that all team members contribute to testing in various ways. For example, involving people with the test strategy, test planning and execution as well as test reporting.

D.Co-located teamwork means that all team members, including developers and testers, must sit together in the same office, so they can quickly communicate face-to-face.
