ISQI CTAL-TA_V4.0 valid exam dumps : ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level Test Analyst (CTAL-TA v4.0)

A written specification describes the rules for granting membership of your company's sports facility, whether it must be paid for if granted and whether free transport to and from the facility will be provided.
These actions depend upon employment status (permanent, temporary or probationary), the result of a medical exam (passed, failed or not taken) and whether the person is classed as a local resident. The best decision table that could be created from this specification is shown below.

Which of the following conclusions is correct?

• A. The decision table has been drawn correctly and the specification must therefore be defective
• B. The specification cannot be evaluated this way because the model type used is not appropriate
• C. The specification may be correct because the table does not have the correct number of rule columns
• D. The specification cannot be evaluated this way because a model cannot convey meaning as well as can text

You are defining test environment requirements for an online retail application that will have to handle high transaction volumes and uses a third-party payment authorization gateway.
Which requirement is MOST important for the functional testing?

You are working on a project to build an application that will handle insurance claims. The main requirements for the system are that it shall:
* Allow users to enter details of claims that have been submitted by insured customers.
* Take each claim through a workflow that will allow an assessor to approve the request, reject it or request clarification from the claimant.
* Send approved requests to the accounts payable system for payment.
The solution is being developed according to the company's standard V-model methodology. The requirements are clearly documented and include a business process model. Operational profiles have been created to guide performance testing.
A risk-based approach to testing is used; frequency of use and role of the user are major factors in feature risk assessment.
System testing has almost finished but a major change to the approval workflow is just about to be delivered.
A standard regression test pack has not yet been established, but ad-hoc regression testing has already been performed on earlier builds.
As a TA. you have updated the list of product risks and must now decide the scope of the regression testing.
Which pair of techniques will be MOST effective for selecting the regression tests?
a) History-based, driven by the results of the regression tests run so far b) Risk-based, driven by the updated list of product risks and its traceability to the tests c) Operational profile-based, driven by the likely patterns of use of the relevant transactions d) Requirement traceability matrix-based, driven by the links from affected requirements to related tests e) Impact analysis, driven by consultation with technical stakeholders to identify what might be affected.

• A. b) and c)
• B. b) and e)
• C. a) and e)
• D. c) and d)

You have been assigned as Test Analyst on a project that is in the test design stage. Test cases have been written, which activity should you do next before test design complete?

• B. Identify constraints and dependencies that will affect the sequence of test execution
• C. Identify the test cases that are suitable for automation
• D. Decide which test cases should be high-level and which ones should be low-level
