During the follow-up phase the following conditions are checked:
X1. The code has been completely reviewed
X2. All the identified defects have been correctly fixed and the modified code has been compiled successfully and run through all the static analyzers used by the project without warnings and errors
X3. The modified code is available under the configuration management system with a new version number for the specified CI
If these conditions are fulfilled then the review process terminates.

III. Analytical test strategy
IV. Process-compliant test strategy
Consider also the following examples of test activities:
1. Prioritize the test cases, based on the results of a FMEA analysis, to ensure early coverage of the most important areas and discovery of the most important defects during test execution
2. Execute usability testing driven by the guidance of a sample of users (external to the test team)
3. Perform exploratory testing sessions throughout the system test phase
4. On an Agile project, execute tests that cover the test conditions identified for each user story of a feature planned for an iteration

Number of correct responses: 1

• A. I-3; II-2; III-1; IV-4
• B. I-2; II-3; III-1; IV-4

You are a Test Manager working for a software organization where reviews have never been applied. After a meeting with your managers examining a business case for reviews, (including their costs, benefits, and potential issues), the management finally decides to adopt formal reviews for future projects.
You have been given a budget that you have spent to provide training in the review process and to introduce the review process on a pilot project.
On that pilot project the introduction of reviews has been very positive in terms of positive involvement from all the participants. All the reviews applied to different documents have been very effective for their purposes (especially at revealing defects).
Which of the following answers describes an important success factor for the introduction of formal reviews which is missing in this scenario?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A. Definition and use of metrics to measure the ROI (Return On Investment)
• B. Training in the review process
• C. Participant support
• D. Management support

Which of the following statements about management of product quality risks in mature organizations with respect to the lifecycle, is true?
Number of correct responses: 1

• A. Mature organizations address product quality risks associated to non-functional characteristics only during the system test phase
• B. Mature organizations are aware that the contribution of testing to analysis of product quality risks is very important. The analysis should occur throughout the entire lifecycle
• C. Mature organizations are aware that risk management of product quality risks only occurs during testing
• D. Mature organizations don't waste time identifying the sources of risks. They only focus on identifying product quality risks
