- B. False alarms, that are unlikely to occur in the real world, will be observed during testing
- C. The process of configuring the TAS will be error-phone due to manual intervention
- D. The automated test cases will not contain the expected result
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 16

The business case for a pilot project is based on the adoption of test automation using a commercial tool that will reduce the execution time by a factor of 90% for 100% of the tests in the regression test suite. The pilot project lasted one month ( as planned) and you are currently its results. At the end of the pilot project, 40% of the regression tests have been automated and their execution time has been reduce by 60%.
Which of the following statements is TRUE in this scenario?
- A. Thetarget defined for the business case seems difficult to hit - it should be realistic
- B. The duration of the pilot project was too short -it should last unit the success factors are achieved

NEW QUESTION 17
Consider a TAS that is going to be deployed for the first time. The TAS requires share resources and run it its own test environment. The infrastructure for the TAS has been created along with maintenance procedures. It is very unlikely the TAS will be required to work in other target Environments.
