I think B and C are both true, but not sure about D.

Wait, D makes it sound like we can't automate until dev starts? Really?

Dierdre 12 months ago

A is totally wrong, tests are always impacted by changes.

Audra 12 months ago

I agree with C, collaboration is key for testability!

Definitely B, new features usually need test updates.

I recall a practice question about the challenges of automating tests for features still in development, so option D seems plausible too.

I think I read somewhere that collaborating with business analysts is crucial for ensuring new features are testable, which makes option C sound right.

I remember discussing how new features often require updates to existing tests, so I think option B might be correct.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like automated tests can still run even if a new feature is added. Maybe option A is misleading?

Okay, the key here is that the BA is reviewing the risks associated with a proposed solution. That sounds like they're doing a risk analysis to me, but I'm not 100% confident. I'll make a guess and move on.

Withhold sounds right, but I always get nervous about these terminology questions. Gotta read carefully.

I'm a little confused by the different protocol abbreviations. I'll need to make sure I understand what each one means and how they relate to the problem before selecting an answer.

I'm a bit confused on this question. I know Transportation Demand Management includes things like carpooling and bike racks, but I'm not sure which of these options doesn't fit. I'll have to review my notes to be sure.
