iSQI CTAL-TM_Syll2012 Exam - Topic 3 Question 28 Discussion

Posted by Aliza on Aug 19, 2022 at 11:55 AM

You are the Test Manager for a project to develop a web customer portal of a Pay-TV company that allows customers (with a smartcard and a set-top box) to purchase digital contents.

In the "select" page the system displays a dialogue where the customer can select the items (digital contents) he/she is interested in. In this page he/she can add one or more items to a shopping cart. An item consists of a product and a duration.

There are three types of products: Movie, sport and premium (movie and sport).

There are four possible durations: 1 months, 2 months, winter (from the beginning of January to end of March) and summer (from the beginning of July to end of September).

All the combinations of products and durations are allowed to define an item. Thus there are twelve possible items. A maximum of six different items can be added to the shopping cart at a time.

When the customer decides to check out he/she goes to the "purchase" page where he/she can pay the total amount of the shopping cart in three different ways:

- using a credit voucher

- using a credit already charged on the smartcard

- using a credit card (accepted credit cards are. Visa, MasterCard and Great Wall Card)

The customer can logout from both the ''select'' and ''purchase'' pages. In this case no purchase is made.

You decide to apply a blended risk-based and reactive testing strategy and the following is a subset of the exit criteria for system testing:

EXCR1- Each ''critical'' quality risk item must be covered by at least one test condition EXCR2- Each ''critical'' requirement must be covered by at least one test condition You are following a risk-based testing strategy. The test execution time is very limited. Assume that all the product risk items require more or less the same level of test effort.

Which of the following answers describes the best execution schedule in this scenario? K3 3 credits

Wait, why is the activation step even before the charge? Seems off.

Definitely agree, pre-activation should come first!

I feel like option D makes sense because it starts with pre-activation, but I’m not confident if that’s the best approach here.

This question reminds me of a similar practice one we did about payment processing. I think we prioritized the activation tests there too.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think the order of testing the Smart Card processes might depend on how they interact with each other.

Voltage truncation? Frequency variation? I'm not really sure what those terms mean in this context. I think I need to review my notes on waveform characteristics before answering this.
LI

I'm a little confused on how to approach this. Should I be looking at the total assets or the net income? I want to make sure I fully understand the requirements before answering.

This seems like a straightforward question about program management. I think the key is to find a solution that balances the needs of the individual project managers with the overall program requirements.

I think option B sounds promising - using session keys and symmetric cryptography could help improve performance without compromising security.

Option D is the way to go. Testing the Smart Card is like making sure your car has gas before worrying about the radio - gotta get the basics covered first!

Finally, testing the acceptance of transactions coming from the IVR channel should be the last step in the execution schedule.

I agree with D. Testing the Smart Card functionality is crucial, and the IVR can wait until that's been validated. Prioritizing the critical path is key here.
