Topic #: 2

[All CTAL Questions]

Software Testers in a software development company installed the new release on test systems and started the testing phase. Testers verified the new functionality, performed necessary security testing and completed planned regression tests. During the last week of testing, testers noticed that the memory utilization was more than 95% on two of the test servers (out of 4 servers). This behavior was not observed during the first weeks of the testing phase. As a test analyst, what would you do?

AIgnore the problem because other two servers are okay (memory utilization is normal)

BReport the problem to the developer immediately and create a defect report because it could be a problem related to memory leak.

CReboot the system so that memory utilization will come back to normal. Not report it as a problem.

DCreate a defect report and reboot the system to correct the memory problem.

Reporting it is a must, can't risk production with high memory usage!

Wait, why did it spike only in the last week? That's weird.

Rebooting won't fix the underlying problem, just a band-aid.

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with Cloud Security Posture Management. Is there any information in the question or answer choices that could give me a clue about the specific language used?

Alright, let me walk through this step-by-step. First, I'll calculate the tax impact, then add in the scrap salvage value, and finally determine the appropriate end-of-life cash flow. I think I can get this right.

This is a tricky one, but I believe the answer is C. The admin needs to set up a sysprep imaging configuration first.

I'm pretty confident this is asking about the package where we need to place a Java class to extend the Alfresco Process Services Public REST API. I think the answer is D, com.activiti.extension.api.
