Question 1

Your team has been given the following test objective Ensure that the users are happier with this version than they were with the last version?


What is wrong with the way this is defined?

  1. Option A:

    It is unlikely that just a version change will make users happier so this is not achievable

  2. Option B:

    It cannot be measured because happier' is subjective


  3. Option C:

    It does not define a timeframe


  4. Option D:

    It is not aligned with the organization's objectives

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Context Analysis:


The test objective should be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound). "Happier" is subjective and not measurable.


Evaluation of Options:


A. It is unlikely that just a version change will make users happier so this is not achievable:


Incorrect. Achievability isn’t the main issue; measurement is.


B. It cannot be measured because 'happier' is subjective:


Correct. The issue lies in the inability to quantify or measure the term "happier."


C. It does not define a timeframe:


Incorrect. While timeframe definition is important, the primary flaw here is subjectivity.


D. It is not aligned with the organization's objectives:


Incorrect. The test objective could align but still fail due to lack of measurability.


Syllabus Alignment:


ISTQB emphasizes creating measurable and actionable test objectives (TM-1.4.1).

Question 2

Your last project was released three months ago and used a risk-based approach. In production, a number of serious failures in low risk areas have occurred.


What is the most important lesson to be learned from this information? 

  1. Option A:

    The "lessons learned" session should have been conducted prior to deployment.


  2. Option B:

    A broader cross-functional team should contribute to the risk analysis.


  3. Option C:

    The project manager should have set stakeholder expectations for serious failures.


  4. Option D:

    Future projects should test the lower risk areas first.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

The most important lesson to be learned from this information is that a broader cross-functional team should contribute to the risk analysis. This is because the risk analysis is the process of identifying, assessing, and prioritizing the risks that may affect the quality of the system, and allocating testing resources accordingly. A broader cross-functional team can provide different perspectives, expertise, and experience to the risk analysis, and help to identify and evaluate the risks more accurately and comprehensively. This can reduce the likelihood of overlooking or underestimating some risks, and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the risk-based testing approach.  Risk Analysis - ISTQB not-for-profit association   References:   Certified Tester Advanced Level Test Manager (CTAL-TM) - ISTQB not-for-profit association ,  ISTQB Test Manager Certification - ISTQB Exams Worldwide - ISTQB Official Registration ,  Risk Analysis - ISTQB not-for-profit association
