Which TWO of the following metrics will be MOST useful in helping the stakeholders to decide whether to allow the system into acceptance testing?

Breakdown of all risks by status (closed / not fully tested / one or more tests failed)

Breakdown by test priority of test execution status (passed / failed / not run)

Breakdown of outstanding risks by risk level and status (not fully tested / one or more tests failed / both)

Breakdown of unresolved defects by severity and status

Breakdown of unresolved defects by Risk Id/s that is/are affected by them

You are planning the testing for an emergency product update required to correct a serious security issue and to improve system maintainability of a key product in your company's catalogue. It has been estimated that the historical cost to the company for the security issue in this system has been $375,000.

In the last year a total of 10 reported "live' incidents were reported, resulting in a total external failure cost of S110.000 to correct.

The cost of prevention for this project has been estimated as $78,500 and from the development you have learned that the average cost of detection was $1,250 and the average cost of internal failure was $7,450

2 Extensive use of checklists to test web page navigation

3 Exploratory test sessions to be integrated into the test schedule Consider the following test strategies:

a. Analytical test strategy

b Methodical test strategy

c. Process or standard compliant test strategy

d Reactive test strategy

e. Regression-averse test strategy

You have been asked to estimate the testing effort for an upgrade to a legacy product Your team did the testing on the last upgrade, and you have ascertained that this upgrade is about 10% bigger than the last one Given this information which estimation technique should you use to come up with the test effort number?

When Is the metric for the percentage of requirements coverage defined?

You are the Test Manager for a software house (SoftTech), who provide a core banking product to retail banks around the world to enable their customers to process payments via the Internet and telephone banking.

Your current project is to integrate SoftTech's core banking product with Welsh Bank's existing bank systems. However, Welsh Bank's systems are maintained by experienced developers and are poorly documented.

A specification for the 10 interfaces to Welsh Bank's existing systems has been produced by SoftTech's development team.

You have been asked to plan and conduct reviews for the system integration and support documentation of all the systems. Which of the following is the BEST approach for this project?
