[All ATM Questions]

After the presentation, you are asked to explain the chart. Assume you have applied a full risk-based testing strategy.

Which of the following answers would you expect to best describe the pie chart?

K4 3 credits

AAll the risk items have been covered with tests. No more risk items remain to test

BAccording to the full risk-based testing strategy applied, it is very likely that the highest-risk items, tests and bugs remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore, it is very risky to release the application

COnly the lowest-risk items, tests and bugs should remain in the blue and red areas. Therefore the application can be released at any time subject to management of the items identified in those areas

D97 percent of the risk items has been tested. No open bugs or test failures remain. Only 3 percent of risk items remains to be covered by the remaining test

C makes sense if we’re only talking about low-risk items.

I think option A is misleading. There’s always some risk left.

Wait, only 3% left? That seems too good to be true.

Looks like option B is the most accurate.

I thought we learned that if high-risk items are still in the blue and red areas, it’s risky to release. So, I lean towards option B, but I hope I’m recalling that correctly.

I’m a bit confused about the percentages in option D. Did we cover how to interpret those numbers in relation to risk?

I feel like we practiced a similar question where the focus was on what remains after testing. I think option D sounds familiar, but it might be too optimistic.

I remember discussing how a full risk-based testing strategy should prioritize high-risk items, so I think option B makes sense, but I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, I've got a plan. I'll edit the existing request and add the dimensions for month and country in the right order. That should do the trick.

I'm a bit confused on this. I'll need to think it through carefully and consider the pros and cons of each approach before answering.

Okay, I think the key is to make sure the users have the right Power BI subscription and licenses. That's probably the first step I'd take to resolve this.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know standardization is important, but I'm not sure which of these options would be the BEST approach. I'll have to think it through carefully.
