[All CTAL-TM_Syll2012 Questions]

Based on the historical data of 5 past and similar projects, you have calculated these average numbers of defects detected in system testing.

- For each 10000 LOC (lines of code), 200 defects

- For each person-month of development team effort, 49 defects

You want to use this information to perform estimation for a new project.

The project manager tells you that he/she has estimated 20000 new LOC for this new project.

Four developers work for four months on this project before system testing.

During system testing, 797 defects are discovered.

Assume that the system test of this new project is using the same amount of work as spent in the past projects.

Based on this information only, which of the following statement is certainly true about this project? K3 3 credits

Haha, the project manager must be using the same estimation techniques as my uncle's garage construction business. As for the answer, I'm going with D. The numbers just don't add up any other way.

Wow, this is a tough one. I'm going to have to really think this through. Maybe I should have taken that 'Estimating Project Scope' course before taking this exam.

A) The code for the new project contains a higher defect density than the code of the past projects

Hold on, did they just throw in a joke about the project manager's estimates? That's hilarious! As for the actual answer, I'm leaning towards option D as well. The numbers just don't add up otherwise.

I think the project manager's estimates were way off.

I'm not sure about this one. Option B seems plausible, but the question specifically says to base the answer on the information provided, and that doesn't mention anything about the number of defects being proportional to the development team effort.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. Based on the information provided, I think option D is the correct answer. The number of defects found during system testing is much higher than what was expected, suggesting that more LOC than planned were delivered with a higher defect density.
