ISTQB CTFL-Foundation Exam - Topic 1 Question 6 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISTQB's CTFL-Foundation exam

Question #: 6
Topic #: 1

Your task is to compile a test execution schedule for the current release of software.

The system specification states the following logical dependencies:

* An admin user must create/amend/delete a standard user.

* A standard user is necessary to perform all other actions.

The test plan requires that re-tests must be performed first, followed by the highest priority tests. To save time, the test plan states that tests should be scheduled to create test data for the subsequent tests in the schedule.

The following test cases have been designed, with an indication of priority (1 being the highest priority) and whether the test has previously failed.

Which test execution schedule meets the test plan requirements and logical dependencies?

Aa, d, c, b, e

Ba, c, b, d, e

Ce, a, b, c, d

De, a, d, c, b

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

I'm surprised that anyone would pick D, it doesn't follow the logic at all!

A is definitely the right choice, it follows the plan perfectly.

Wait, why is e first in option C? That doesn't seem right.

I disagree, B seems better for the dependencies.

I think option A makes the most sense.

I recall that we discussed how to handle failed tests, but I can't remember if we should schedule them before or after the high-priority tests. I guess I need to think more about option C.

I’m a bit confused about the dependencies. Shouldn't we always create the standard user before running other tests? That makes me lean towards option A.

I think we practiced a similar question where the order of creating users was crucial. I feel like option D might work because it starts with e, which is a prerequisite.

I remember that we need to prioritize re-tests first, but I'm not sure if option A or B is better for that.

I'm a bit confused by the test plan requirements. Do the re-tests need to be done first, or can I mix them in with the highest priority tests? I'll need to double-check that.

Okay, I think I've got it. The key is to start with the re-tests, then do the highest priority tests, while also considering the data dependencies between the tests.

Hmm, the logical dependencies are clear, but the test plan adds an extra layer of complexity. I'll need to think through the order carefully to meet all the criteria.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully analyze the dependencies and test plan requirements to come up with the right schedule.

This is a good example of a question that requires a systematic approach. I'll make sure to carefully consider all the factors before selecting the final schedule.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I know there are different types of lenses, but I'm not sure which one would have the best iris control in all lighting conditions. I'll have to review my notes and try to figure this out.

Okay, let's see here. The key is identifying the two valid configuration steps for supporting VLAN 12. I'll read through the options and try to eliminate the incorrect ones.
