Question #1

Which of the following recommendations can help improve the maintainability of test automation code?

A. Avoid using static analyzers on test automation code and other development tools, as they are designed to improve the maintainability of SUT code

B. Use error codes in test automation code instead of exceptions (if exceptions are supported by the programming language) for error handling

C. Avoid adopting design patterns that introduce high levels of abstraction in test automation code, such as the flow model pattern

D. Avoid producing test automation code containing methods with too many levels of nesting, as deeply nested code is more difficult to understand

Question #2

The last few runs for a suite of automated keyword-driven tests on a SUT were never completed. The test where the run was aborted was not the same between runs. Currently, it is not possible to identify the root cause of these aborts, but only determine that test execution aborted when exceptions (e.g., NullPointerException, OutOfMemoryError) occurred on the SUT by analyzing its log files. Test execution log files are currently generated, in HTML format, by the TAS as follows: all expected logging data is logged for each keyword in intermediate log files. This data is then inserted into the final log file only for keywords that fail, while only a configurable subset of that data is logged for keywords that execute successfully. Which of the following actions (assuming it is possible to perform all of them) would you take FIRST to help find the root cause of the aborts?

A. Log all expected logging data in the final test execution log file, not only for keywords that fail, but also for keywords that execute successfully

B. Log the stack trace and amount of memory available to the SUT at the start and end of each test in the suite, in the SUT log files

C. Split the generated log file into smaller parts, load them into external files that are loaded into the browser in transparent mode when needed

D. Use appropriate colors to effectively visually highlight different types of information in the test execution log files

Question #3

(Which of the following statements about how test automation is applied across different software development lifecycle models is TRUE?)

A. In a Waterfall model, automated tests are usually executed only during the last phase of the development lifecycle, but their implementation occurs in the early stages

B. Unlike Agile software development, where automated unit tests are written by developers, often in a test-first fashion, in a V-model, automated unit tests are written by testers as part of unit testing

C. In Agile software development, regardless of context (e.g., type of application to be developed, tools available), test automation must be based on the test automation distribution known as the test pyramid model

D. In Agile software development, automated regression test suites sometimes grow so large that they can become difficult to maintain, and thus, it becomes crucial to invest in test automation at multiple test levels

Question #4

Which of the following statements about contract testing is TRUE?

A. The differences between the two approaches to contract testing stem primarily from which side creates the contract: this creation is done by the provider for the provider-driven approach and by the consumer (s) for the consumer-driven approach

B. Contract testing, regardless of the approach chosen (provider-driven or consumer-driven) does not need to rely on the creation of stubs/mocks since it is used to implement integration testing, not unit
/component testing

C. Contract testing can be viewed as a specialized form of API testing that can be applied to effectively and efficiently test integration between microservices, but only if they interact with REST APIs

D. Contract testing can be viewed as a specialized form of API testing that can be applied to effectively and efficiently test integration between systems, but only if they interact synchronously

Question #5

Which one of the following answers does NOT refer to an example of configuration item(s) that should be specified in development pipelines to identify a test environment (and its specific test data) associated with a web app under test on which to execute automated tests?

A. The base URL of the test environment where the web app is deployed (i.e., the root address for accessing the web app)

B. The URLs of web APIs/web services related to the web app's backend within the test environment where the app is deployed

C. The connection string(s) to connect to the test database(s) within the test environment where the web app is deployed

D. The number and type of automated tests to execute in the test environment where the web app is deployed
