ISTQB Exam ATM Topic 2 Question 31 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISTQB's ATM exam
Question #: 31
Topic #: 2
[All ATM Questions]

You are working on a project to develop an authentication system for an e-commerce website. This system provides two features: Registration and authentication. Two different development teams develop these two features.

There is a high likelihood that the delivery of the authentication feature to the test team will be three weeks later. To complete the registration the user must provide the following registration inputs: Name, surname, birth date, fiscal code and he/she can select a username and a password. A registered user can be a special user or a normal user. To be identified as a special user, he/she must also provide, during the registration process, a voucher possibly received from the IT department.

Access is granted only if a user is registered and the password is correct: In all other cases access is denied. If the registered user is a special user and the password is wrong, a special warning is shown on the system console. You are currently performing a quality risk analysis using FMEA .

Based only on the given information, which of the following is NOT a product risk that could be identified during the quality risk analysis? K4 3 credits

If the authentication system is as secure as a wet paper bag, I'll bet the IT department is already planning a 'special' welcome for the developer responsible. Yikes!

I bet the team that developed the authentication feature was doing a little too much 'authentication' of their own during their coffee breaks. Maybe that's why they're running late!

Hopefully they can get it sorted out soon so we can move forward with testing.

Granting access to a special user with a wrong password? Wow, that's like giving the keys to the kingdom to anyone who can spell their own name. Talk about a gaping hole in the security!

Granting access to a normal user with a wrong password? That's just a security disaster waiting to happen. Someone's going to get hacked for sure!

Denying access for a special user with a wrong password, but not displaying a special warning, is a clear product risk that should be addressed.

Team A: We need to make sure that the authentication system displays a special warning for special users with wrong passwords.

I see your point. Option B and D seem more like product risks that could impact the system's functionality.

I agree with Leah. Option C seems like a security flaw rather than a product risk.

I think option C is NOT a product risk because it grants access to a normal user with a wrong password.

The late delivery of the authentication feature is definitely a risk that should be identified. This could lead to a shorter test period and potentially impact the project timeline.

I also believe that option C is the correct answer. Granting access to a normal user with a wrong password can pose a security risk.
