Risk-based testing does not fit in Agile development processes, as each iteration focuses on limited parts of the product.
Risk-based testing does not fit in Agile development processes, as each iteration focuses on limited parts of the product.
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

Risk-based testing is a strategic approach to testing that prioritizes testing activities based on the level of risk associated with various features or components of the software. In Agile development, this approach aligns well with the iterative and incremental nature of Agile methodologies. During both release and iteration planning, Agile teams assess and prioritize work based on risk, value, and other factors. This double layer of risk analysis allows teams to focus their testing efforts more effectively on areas that pose the greatest risk to the project's success, thereby enhancing the quality and reliability of the deliverables. This approach is consistent with Agile principles, which emphasize adaptability and the delivery of value to the customer.

It is a detailed visual representation of the status of testing.
Only ''in progress' tasks are shown on the task board.
Only ''in progress' tasks are shown on the task board.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

An Agile task board is a visual management tool used by Agile teams to track the progress of work items during an iteration or sprint. It typically includes columns for different stages of work (e.g., To Do, In Progress, Done) and cards or sticky notes representing individual tasks or user stories. The task board provides a detailed visual representation of the whole team's status, allowing team members and stakeholders to quickly see what work is in progress, what has been completed, and what is yet to be started. This visibility supports transparency, one of the core values of Agile, and facilitates communication and collaboration within the team. The task board is updated regularly, often daily during stand-up meetings, to reflect the most current status of the work.

Which of the following is the BEST way for a test team to keep its independence when working in an Agile development environment?

Assign testers to be members of the Agile team, but ensure the testers report to a different manager than the developers.
Assign testers to be members of the Agile team, but ensure the testers report to a different manager than the developers.
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

Maintaining the independence of the test team within an Agile development environment can be achieved by integrating testers into the Agile teams while ensuring they have a separate reporting line. This arrangement helps in preserving the objectivity of the testing function without isolating testers from the collaborative and fast-paced Agile environment. Testers contribute to the team's activities and participate in all Agile ceremonies, fostering a strong collaboration and understanding of the product. However, by reporting to a different manager, testers can maintain an independent perspective, which is crucial for unbiased quality assurance. This approach aligns with Agile values of collaboration and individuals and interactions over processes and tools, while also respecting the need for independent verification and validation of the software product.

Consider an online application that allows registered users to pay the annual car tax based on the vehicle's engine power in kW. Given the following user story:

''As a customer I need the online application to calculate the annual car tax amount that I need to pay for my car':

- If the power of the vehicle is less than 20 kW, then the annual car tax is free

- If the power of the vehicle is more or equal than 20 kW but less or equal than 150 kW, then the annual car tax is 250 Euros

- If the power of the vehicle is more than 150 kW, then the annual car tax is 750 Euros'

What is the MOST suitable use of a black-box test design technique for this user story?
