Question #6
You are working on a government system called “Making Tax Digital" or MTD for short. This system is being implemented to stop manual human input error and also to reduce fraudulent behaviour from companies when submitting their tax and VAT returns.
The key concept is that registered companies will need to use government recommended 3rd party software for their accounts and book keeping. These 3rd party applications will have a direct interface into the government's main system for transactions and submissions.
You have been using a test execution tool successfully on the project so far. and have implemented a basic “capture/replay” approach to scripting.
The management have been encouraged with the automation so far, but want the following objectives to be met:
• Test cases added easily
• Reduction in the amount of scripts and script duplication
• Reduction in maintenance costs
Which scripting technique would be MOST suitable in this scenario in order to meet the objectives?

Question #7
The Test Automation Manager has asked you to provide a solution for collecting metrics from the TAS that measures code coverage every time the automated regression test pack is run. The metrics must be trend based to ensure that the scope of the regression test pack continues to reflect enhancements made to the SUT - coverage must not drop and should ideally increase. The solution must be as automated as possible to avoid unnecessary manual overheads and errors.
Which of the following approaches would BEST meet these requirements?
Which of the following approaches would BEST meet these requirements?
- ATest automation cannot measure code coverage for the SUT, only the code for the automation tools and scripts. The automated test cases would need to be run manually with a code coverage and reporting tool running in the background.
- BThe automated testware would record overall code coverage for each run and add the figure to a new row in a pre-formatted Excel spreadsheet. You would then present the spreadsheet to stakeholders so they could look for changes in coverage.
- CThe automated testware would record overall code coverage for each run, export the data to a pre-formatted Excel spreadsheet that automatically updates a trend analysis bar chart for you to distribute to stakeholders.Most Voted
- DThe automated testware would record the pass/fail rate of each regression test case, export the data to a pre-formatted Excel spreadsheet that automatically updates a trend analysis success rate bar chart and emails it to stakeholders.

Question #9
New features have been added for the current release of a SUT.
Which action would NOT be appropriate for the TAE to perform when evaluating the impact on the TAS?
Which action would NOT be appropriate for the TAE to perform when evaluating the impact on the TAS?
- AGather feedback from the Business Analysts to determine if the current TAS will meet the needs of the new features.Most Voted
- BReview existing keywords to see if they need to be modified.
- CRun existing automated tests against the updated SUT to verify and record any changes to their correct operation.
- DEvaluate compatibility with existing test tools and, where necessary, identify alternative solutions.

Question #10
You are implementing test automation for a project that has a business critical application A test execution tool is being used to run automated regression tests. The results from the test execution tool are very important and need to be 100% accurate.
You want to merge the test automation results with the test management system that also records the manual test results so that managers can make informed decisions about the progress quickly.
Which layer of the gTAA will be used to ensure the proper reporting occurs and the interfaces to the test management system are handled?
