ISTQB Certified Tester Test Automation Engineer - CT-TAE FREE EXAM DUMPS QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Which of the following attributes should NOT be included in a test execution report associated with a suite of automated tests?

A project consists of distributed teams working in a 24-hour environment, where activities happen at all hours of the day. This project adopts a CI (Continuous Integration) process when developer check-in code and consists of automated activities that include generating a build and deploying it to a test environment.
Automated integration tests are run multiple times a day. The project have asked for a report containing the automation test results for every build, which must be available 24/7 to the project team.
Which of the following would be the BEST way to automatically provides this report?

You are working on a TAS for standalone application. The automated tests are developed based on a automation framework that allows interaction with GUI elements using on object orientated API. The GUI elements include menus, buttons, radio buttons, text toolbars and their properties.
Whilst automating a test, you have discovered that the GUI elements of some third party components are not identifiable by the automated tool you are using.
Which of the following is the FIRST step that you take to investigate this issue?

You have been asked to develop test automation for a legacy system that is going to go through a series of infrastructure migrations. The scripts will be used to verify basic functionality during these infrastructure changes Your Test Analysts have some programming skills and need a solution that is simple and fast.
Maintainability of the scripts is not a consideration because no changes to the software are anticipated.
Which of the following is the BEST scripting approach in this situation?

Consider A TAS for testing a desktop application via its GUI. All the test cases of the automated test suite contain the same identical sequences of steps at the beginning (to create the necessary objects when doing a preliminary configuration of the test environment and at the end (to remove everything created -specifically for the test itself during the preliminary configuration of the test environment). All automated test cases use the same set of assertion functions from a shared library, for verifying the values in the GUI fields ( e.g text boxes).
What is the BEST recommendation for improving the TAS?

Your TAS has been running successfully on a Windows/GUI based SUT for some years. The SUT has undergone minimal change over the years to maintain business as usual, deploying six-monthly releases for minor enhancements and bug fixes using a waterfall lifecycle.
The TAS has not changed at all during this period. The current project for the SUT will be using the Scrum methodology to deliver a more modern, competitive, user interface. It is in the release planning stage with an agreed release backlog and set of sprints outlined.
The move from lengthy waterfall releases to shorter sprints has led you to conduct a review of the current TAS to make sure it is robust and fully optimised for the timescale challenges of the new project.
What two steps would be BEST to undertake during the review?
a) Ensure that new automation code is using the same naming conventions as existing code.
b) Perform a full regression run in Sprint 1 to identify what improvements could be made to the TAS for future sprints.
c) Ensure that the TAS is using the latest libraries for the operating system.
d) Review the functions that act upon the controls for the GUI for possible consolidation.
e) Involve the test team to see what ease-of-use improvements they would like to see made to the TAS.

Designing the System Under Test (SUT) for testability is important for a good test automation approach and can also benefit manual test execution.
Which of the following is NOT a consideration when designing for testability?

A major component of your organisation's Test Automaton Solution (TAS) is a popular open-source third-party capture-replay tool for automated functional testing.
Which two of the following must the Test Automation Engineer (TAE) ensure happens for this TAS?
a) The third party tool is placed under configuration management control.
b) The annual support and maintenance costs are agreed with the tool's vendor.
c) It is Important to obtain information about updates and new versions of the tool so that the third party tool is kept up to date.
d) Ensure that the TAS test scripts are integrated into the tool's framework.
e) Ensure that no changes are made to the tool, because modifications are not allowed for third party products.

A defect in a SUT has been resolved and validated by an automated defect re-test in the current release of the software. This retest has now been added to the automated regression test suite.
Which statement BEST describes a reason why this defect could re-occur in future releases?
