CTFL-AT Practice Exam Questions and Answers

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.

A.  

Scenarios

B.  

Functional behavior

C.  

External interfaces

D.  

Quality characteristics

A.  

Agile retrospectives should be focused mainly on obstructions and hindrances that are outside the control of the team because these issues are more challenging

B.  

Traditional projects require feedback from retrospectives; however, Agile retrospectives do not require follow-up activities

C.  

Agile retrospectives should be focused on the team members and business representatives, and other participants should not attend or contribute

D.  

Agile retrospectives should also provide feedback to the current iteration planning regarding planning accuracy, contents, and the efficiency of the work in the team

A.  

Exploratory Testing

B.  

Prototype Testing

C.  

Performance Testing

D.  

Functional Testing

A.  

In traditional V-model projects there is a system test level that usually involves executing functional tests as well as non-functional tests, while in Agile projects there is never a system test level

B.  

Because Agile projects tend to adopt test-first approaches, test automation in Agile projects is performed at lower test levels, while test automation in traditional projects is performed at higher test levels

C.  

Risk-based testing can be adopted both in Agile projects and traditional projects. In Agile projects, the specific risks for all of the iterations are identified and assessed during release planning

D.  

In traditional V-model projects the different test phases are performed sequentially, while in Agile projects these phases are performed parallel to one another within each iteration

A.  

Kanban

B.  

Extreme Programming

C.  

Continuous Integration

D.  

Scrum

A.  

The build process was slow and this often caused delays waiting for the build to complete.

B.  

For the last sprint the estimated and actual effort were much higher than the team capacity.

C.  

The automation tests failed frequently without any logs to help in debugging the failure reason.

D.  

One of the testers was regarded as being both disruptive and lazy and did not contribute to team success.

A.  

2, 3

B.  

1, 4

C.  

4, 5

D.

A.  

Both BDD tests and TDD tests are written primarily at the acceptance level, though these tests may also be written at the integration or system levels

B.  

TDD tests are focused on the implementation of the software while BDD tests on the exhibited behavior of the software

C.  

TDD tests and BDD tests are written by developers, but TDD tests are generally easier for other team members and stakeholders to understand than BDD tests

D.  

Specific BDD frameworks can be used to define acceptance criteria based on the role/feature/benefit template ("As a..., I want..., so that...")

A.  

Testers can start testing a user story only when it is "done", meaning when the coding of that user story is finished

B.  

The performances of developers are measured on implemented story points while the performances of testers on executed test cases and defect counts

C.  

Agile teams often adopt exploratory testing, where test design and test execution occur at the same time, usually guided by a test charter

D.  

Both business stakeholders and testers can test user stories during their development within an iteration to provide fast feedback to the developers
