- B. discussed and incorporated during the daily stand up
- C. added to the product backlog and prioritized by the product owner
- D. reviewed and approved by stakeholders in a configuration control board
正解:C
解説:
In agile development, changes to requirements are a common and expected part of the process. The product backlog, which is a prioritized list of tasks and requirements for the project, is the main tool for managing these changes.
* Requirement Identification: New requirements or changes are identified during various stages of the
* development process, often during interactions with stakeholders or as the team gains a deeper understanding of the project.
* Product Backlog: These new requirements are then added to the product backlog. The product backlog is managed by the product owner, who is responsible for maintaining its order of priority based on the project's goals and stakeholder feedback.
* Prioritization: The product owner prioritizes the backlog items to ensure that the most valuable and important features are addressed first. This prioritization helps in managing scope and delivering value incrementally.
* Sprint Planning: During sprint planning, the team selects items from the top of the product backlog to include in the next sprint, based on their capacity and the priority set by the product owner.
質問 # 37
In the following control diagram, all paths are feasible and the decisions are not correlated to each other.
How many rests are necessary for branch coverage?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
正解:C
解説:
Branch coverage, also known as decision coverage, ensures that every possible branch (i.e., true and false conditions) in the code is executed at least once. To determine the number of tests necessary for branch coverage in the given control flow diagram, we must count the distinct branches resulting from each decision point.
* Decision 1: 2 branches (true and false)
* Decision 2: 2 branches (true and false)
* Decision 3: 2 branches (true and false)
Since each decision has two branches and they are independent of each other, the number of distinct paths that need to be tested is: 2(Decision1)+2(Decision2)+2(Decision3)=6 branches2 (Decision 1) + 2 (Decision 2) + 2 (Decision 3) = 6 \text{ branches}2(Decision1)+2(Decision2)+2(Decision3)=6 branches However, the number of tests needed to cover all branches is the maximum number of branches any path could take, considering that a single test might cover multiple branches. For the given control diagram, 4 tests will suffice to cover all branches:
* Path: A -> Decision 1 (true) -> B
* Path: A -> Decision 1 (false) -> Decision 2 (true) -> C
* Path: A -> Decision 1 (false) -> Decision 2 (false) -> Decision 3 (true) -> D
* Path: A -> Decision 1 (false) -> Decision 2 (false) -> Decision 3 (false) These four tests ensure all branches are covered at least once.
質問 # 38
A software engineer is asked to analyze the relationship between the number of defects found and the complexity of various software applications. Which of the following is the appropriate tool to use for this analysis?
- A. Cause and effect diagram
- B. Control chains
- C. Scatter diagram
- D. Histogram
正解:C
解説:
A scatter diagram is the appropriate tool for analyzing the relationship between the number of defects found and the complexity of various software applications. Scatter diagrams are used to plot pairs of numerical data, with one variable on each axis, to look for a relationship between them. This visual representation helps in identifying patterns or correlations between the two variables, such as whether higher complexity correlates with more defects.

One of the objectives of a functional test is to demonstrate that the software
- A. is sufficiently free of operational problems
- B. interacts appropriately at the unit level
- C. processes the data in a structured manner
- D. is understood by the user
正解:A
解説:
Functional testing is a type of software testing that evaluates the functionality of a software application by testing it against the specified requirements. The primary goal of functional testing is to ensure that the software works as per the desired specifications and performs its intended functions correctly123.
* Is sufficiently free of operational problems (Option A): One of the main objectives of functional testing is to demonstrate that the software operates correctly and is free of issues that could affect its operation. This includes testing the software to ensure that it is performing its required functions without errors or problems12.
* Is understood by the user (Option B): While user understanding is important, it is not the primary objective of functional testing. User understanding is more related to usability testing, which assesses how easily users can learn and use the product.
* Interacts appropriately at the unit level (Option C): Interaction at the unit level is typically tested during unit testing, which is a subset of functional testing but not its overarching objective. Functional testing looks at the application as a whole rather than individual units2.
* Processes the data in a structured manner (Option D): Although processing data correctly is part of functional testing, the focus is on whether the software performs its intended functions and not specifically on the structure of data processing.

Project management has been complaining that code inspections are taking too much time and are not worth the effort. The software manager has to decide whether the inspection program should be continued or disregarded for the upcoming release. Which of the following factors is critical to the manager s decision?
- A. The cost of not using inspection
- B. The resources currently available for development
- C. The cost of additional testing
- D. The estimated impact of inspection on the schedule
正解:A
解説:
The critical factor for the software manager's decision on whether to continue or disregard the inspection program is the cost of not using inspection. Code inspections are a preventive measure to identify defects early in the development process. The cost of not using inspections can include increased defects in the final product, higher costs for post-release fixes, decreased customer satisfaction, and potentially significant impacts on the company's reputation. While resources, schedule impact, and additional testing costs are important considerations, the long-term cost implications of not identifying defects early can be far more detrimental.References:

質問 # 51
Concurrently developing software primarily requires more
- A. robust change control
- B. detailed requirement tracking
- C. extensive impact analysis
- D. rigid version control
正解:D
解説:
Concurrently developing software, where multiple developers work on different parts of the codebase simultaneously, requires more rigid version control. This is because:
* Managing Changes:Ensuring that changes made by one developer do not conflict with changes made by another.
* Maintaining History:Keeping a detailed record of modifications to understand the evolution of the codebase and to revert changes if necessary.
Robust version control systems (VCS) like Git facilitate concurrent development by managing branches, merges, and conflict resolution effectively.
