Which of the following practices can be used to specify the active (i.e., actually available) features for each release of the SUT and determine the corresponding automated tests that must be executed for a given release?

• A. Feature-driven development
• B. Test-driven development
• C. The use of feature files
• D. The use of feature toggles

Some automated regression test scripts run by a TAS in a given test environment make calls to private APIs that require authentication for all requests (the authentication method is the same for all APIs). The SUT is a business-critical system. The following two changes are planned: a change in the authentication method of all APIs and a minor upgrade of the OS (Operating System) in the test environment. You have updated the test scripts to cope with the change in the API authentication method. Which of the following sequences of activities is BEST to ensure that the test scripts are not adversely affected by these changes?

• A. Implement one change at a time and run a subset of the updated test scripts after each change, and finally run all the updated test scripts
• B. First upgrade the OS, then implement the change in the API authentication method, and finally run all the updated test scripts
• C. First implement the change in the API authentication method, then upgrade the OS, and finally run all the updated test scripts
• D. Implement one change at a time and run a subset of the updated test scripts after each change

Which of the following information in API documentation is LEAST relevant for implementing automated tests on that API?

• A. Details about the parameters accepted by each API endpoint
• B. Details about the format of the API responses
• C. Authentication mechanisms required to access the API
• D. Release notes/change logs on past changes to the API

As a TAE you are evaluating a functional test automation tool that will be for several projects within your organization. The projects require that tool to work effectively and efficiently with SUT's in distributed environments. The test automated tool also needs to interface with other existing test tools (test management tool and defect tracking tool.) The existing test tools subject to planned updates and their interface to the test automated tool may not work property after these updates.
Which of the following are the two LEAST important concerns related to the evaluation of the test automation in this scenario?
Is the test automation tool able to launch processors and execute test cases on multiple machines in different environments?
Does the test automation tool support a licensing scheme that allows accessing different sets?
Does the test automation tool have a large feature set, but only part of the features will be sets?
Do the release notes for the planned updates on existing specify the impacts on their interfaces to other tools?
Does the test automation tool need to install specific libraries that could impact the SUT?

• A. B and E
• B. C and D
• C. A and E
• D. A and C

Consider a TAS aimed at implementing and running automated test scripts at the UI level on web apps. The TAS must support cross-browser compatibility for a variety of supported browsers, by ensuring that the same test script will run on such browsers in the same way without making any changes to it. This is achieved by introducing appropriate abstractions into the TAA for connection and interaction with different browsers.
Because of this, the TAS will be able to make direct calls to the supported browsers using each different browser's native support for automation. Which of the following SOLID principles was adopted?

• A. Interface segregation principle
• B. Liskov substitution principle
• C. Dependency inversion principle
• D. Open-closed principle
