Totally agree, the actual cause is a no-go at this stage!
SY

Wait, how can you not have steps to reproduce? That seems odd.
SA

I think we can guess the lifecycle phase though.
HE
Henriette 11 months ago
Definitely can't have the defect type until it's investigated!
AD

Can't know the actual cause yet, right?
LE

I practiced a similar question, and I think we definitely can't know the lifecycle phase yet, which makes C a likely choice too.
MA

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the steps to reproduce the failure should be included even in the new state, so maybe E is safe.
LE

I think we might also struggle to identify the type of defect at this point, so A could be another option.
LE
Lemuel 1 year ago
I remember that in the early stages of an incident report, we can't definitively state the actual cause of the failure, so D seems right.
TH

I'm feeling confident about this one. The information that can't yet be present in the "new" incident report is the type of defect, the lifecycle phase of the defect, and the actual cause of the failure.
KA

I've got this! The actual cause of the failure and the steps to reproduce it are probably not available until the incident has been investigated further, so those are my choices.
SY
Sylvia 1 year ago
Okay, let's see. The type of defect, the actual and expected results, and the lifecycle phase of the defect introduction - these are likely not yet known at the "new" stage, so I'll select those.
TH

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I need to carefully read through the options and think about what information would typically be available at the "new" stage of an incident report.
DI

This question seems straightforward. I'll focus on identifying the information items that can't yet be present in the incident report since it's in a "new" state.
KA

This is a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about how hard links work to figure this out.
RA
Ranee 1 year ago
Okay, I've got a strategy - I'll focus on the key phrases like "supported configurations" and "choose three" to narrow down the options.
EL

I think we discussed that Citrix Studio is the primary tool for managing Citrix settings, but I'm not certain about the Microsoft side. Could it really be Local policies?
ST

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to create transfer orders to push the inventory out to the stores as soon as possible. Selecting the product and distribution method will also be important. I feel pretty confident about this one.

Wow, these candidates are really giving it their all! I love the humor, though. It's like they're trying to solve a mystery or something. Keep it up, folks!

Wait, wait, wait... The tester can't know the actual cause yet? What is this, some kind of mind-reading test? I'm just going to guess C, D, and E and hope for the best.

Haha, this is like a game of 20 questions! Okay, let's see... The tester can't know the actual cause yet, and they probably don't have the steps to reproduce all figured out. Oh, and the lifecycle phase? That's a tough one. I'll go with C, D, and E.
ER
Ernest 1 year ago
I believe it's important to have the steps to reproduce the failure for easier debugging.
LE
Lennie 1 year ago
Hmm, I don't know. I'd say the type of defect and the actual and expected results are definitely known at this point. But the lifecycle phase, the actual cause, and the steps to reproduce? Nah, those are probably still missing.

I agree with Marguerita. The lifecycle phase and actual cause can be added later after investigation.
MA
Marguerita 2 years ago
I think the type of defect, actual and expected result, and steps to reproduce can't be present yet.
RO
Roosevelt 2 years ago
Well, this is a tricky one. I mean, the tester just created the incident report, so how could they possibly know the actual cause of the failure, right? I'm going with C, D, and E.
