Actual exam question for ISTQB's CTAL-TTA exam
Question #: 16
Topic #: 5
[All CTAL-TTA Questions]

Which of the following can be executed by model-based testing tools?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Model-based testing tools are specifically designed to simulate and verify various computational models, including finite state machines (FSM). FSMs are a core part of model-based testing, allowing the definition of system behavior under different inputs and states. Model-based testing tools use these machines to ensure that all states and transitions are covered during testing, providing a systematic approach to test automation and validation.

Wait, can they really handle all of these? Sounds too good to be true!

Use case profiles are also valid, right?

Use case profiles sound familiar, but I don't remember if they fit into the model-based testing category. This is tricky!

I feel like computational models are something model-based testing tools can handle, but I need to double-check my notes on that.

I remember practicing a question about operational profiles, but I can't recall if they are directly executable by these tools.

I think model-based testing tools can definitely work with finite state machines, but I'm not entirely sure about the others.

I feel pretty good about this one. From what I've learned, model-based testing tools are designed to work with finite state machines, which is option A. I'll select that as my answer.

I'm a little confused by the options. I know model-based testing is about using models to generate test cases, but I'm not sure if a computational model or a use case profile would be something these tools can execute. I'll have to think about this one a bit more.

Okay, let me think this through. A finite state machine seems like the most logical choice here, as it's a common model used in model-based testing. I'll go with A.

I feel like we practiced a similar question where using proprietary extensions caused problems. I think we should avoid that, so D seems wrong.

I think the key here is to focus on the keywords in the controls, like "policy," "risk," and "framework." That points me towards the Governance and Risk Management domain. I'll mark that as my final answer.

Okay, I've got this. The key here is that the question specifies a "freshly booted switch", so the "dir" command alone won't work. I'm pretty sure the correct answer is B, "bash ls /mnt/flash", since that will let me directly view the contents of the flash drive.
