In the test strategy document your organization declares:
- To adopt a V-model development lifecycle, with three formal levels of testing. unit, integration and system testing
- To use a blended risk-based and regression-averse testing strategy for each level of testing The following is an excerpt of the ''approach'' section for the system test plan document of a new project:
''Testing will only use manual tests. Due to the short period of time for test execution, the following activities will be performed in parallel with test execution: Test planning, test analysis and test design.
Basic metrics will be taken for test effort (i.e. person-hours), test cases executed (passed/failed), and incidents (no more metrics, such as code coverage, will be collected).'' In the system test plan, no deviations from the test strategy are described. Based only on the given information, which of the following statements is true?

I’m with Ramonita on D. It’s inconsistent overall.

A makes sense to me. The plan follows the lifecycle stated.
LE

I lean towards D too. Manual tests only? That's risky.
AN

B seems plausible. It’s risk-based but lacks regression focus.
RA

I disagree, I feel D fits better. No metrics for coverage is a big issue.
DE

Definitely feels inconsistent with both strategies mentioned.

Not sure if this aligns with risk-based testing at all.

Wait, no code coverage metrics? That’s a bit surprising.

I think it's fine to do test planning in parallel, saves time!

Haha, "no more metrics, such as code coverage"? Sounds like someone's trying to avoid doing their job properly.

Option A seems correct. The test plan mentions manual testing, which aligns with the V-model approach.

I recall that risk-based testing prioritizes tests based on risk, and I'm uncertain if just using manual tests aligns with that.

This question feels similar to one we practiced about test strategies. I think the answer might be D, but I'm not completely confident.

I think the focus on manual testing might conflict with the regression-averse approach, but I need to double-check the definitions.

I remember that the V-model emphasizes testing at each stage, but I'm not sure how manual testing fits into the risk-based strategy.
FL

Hmm, this is tricky. I'm leaning towards option D, that the system test plan is inconsistent with both the risk-based and regression testing strategies. The parallel activities and limited metrics don't seem to align with those approaches.
MI

Based on the information provided, I think the system test plan approach is inconsistent with both the risk-based and regression testing strategies outlined in the overall test strategy. The lack of specific activities for those approaches is a red flag.

I'm a bit confused here. The system test plan doesn't mention anything about risk-based or regression testing, so I'm not sure how to evaluate that. Maybe I'm missing something in the details.
CH

I think A is the right choice. It aligns with the strategy.
JU
Justine

The plan only uses manual tests, which seems limiting.
QU

Hmm, the parallel activities during test execution are a bit concerning. Shouldn't they be done before testing?
KI
Kirk

I'm not sure about this one. The lack of metrics like code coverage seems to contradict the risk-based strategy.
KE

Okay, let's see. The test strategy calls for a V-model with three levels of testing, and a blended risk-based and regression-averse approach. The system test plan says they'll only do manual testing and do other activities in parallel. Sounds like it might not be fully aligned.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. The key is to really understand the test strategy and how it aligns with the system test plan. I'll need to carefully analyze each part.

So, option D could be the right choice?
FA

CH

I think option A makes sense.
