ISTQB CT-TAE Exam - Topic 2 Question 60 Discussion

You have been asked to determine a TAS for a new release of a SUT, test should be automated wherever. The new release will consist of 5 new interfaces and an amendment to 3 existing interfaces. The new and amended interface will be deliver incrementally in 3 sprints, each lasting 2 weeks.What would be the BEST Test Automation Solution (TAS) design in this scenario?
A) Automate tests at both Component and System Level. Only do this automation once every interface has been fully developed or amended and manual testing has completed successfully.
B) Automate tests at one level only, System level. Use only the newly developed interfaces and do not create any customized interfaces/test hooks.
C) Automate the tests at two levels, Component and System level. Create customized hooks at Component level for interface not yet developed or amended. Only use the newly developed or amended interfaces to test at System level.
D) Automate a test at once level, component level, Create customized interface/test hooks for this level where the interface has not yet been developed or amended.

I wonder if the developers will remember to update those "customized hooks" when the real interfaces are ready...

Option D is a bit too narrow, we should automate at both levels to ensure thorough testing.

I remember something about focusing on the newly developed interfaces, but I’m not clear if just doing System level automation is enough for this scenario.

I feel like option C makes sense because it allows for flexibility with the new interfaces, but I'm uncertain if we should really automate at both levels right away.

I think we practiced a similar question where automating at both levels was beneficial, but I can't recall if we should create hooks for interfaces that aren't ready yet.

I'm leaning towards option B. Automating at just the system level and using the new interfaces as-is seems like the simplest and most straightforward approach. We can always add more automation later if we need to.

I like the idea of option C. Automating at both levels and using customized hooks for the unfinished interfaces will let us get a head start on the automation work. That way, we can hit the ground running once the interfaces are complete.

Option A sounds like the safest bet to me. Waiting until the interfaces are fully developed and manually tested before automating just seems like the low-risk approach. I don't want to get stuck trying to automate something that's still in flux.

I'm a bit confused by this question. It seems like we have to decide on the test automation strategy before the interfaces are fully developed. Wouldn't it be better to wait until the interfaces are complete before starting the automation?

I think option C is the best approach here. Automating at both the component and system level will give us the most comprehensive coverage, and using customized hooks for the interfaces that aren't fully developed yet is a smart way to get started on automation early.
