Question 6 of 39

Which TWO of the following capabilities are primary strengths of Large Language Models (LLMs) when applied to software testing tasks? (Choose two.)

A.

Automating the generation of synthetic test data to cover various combinations and boundary values.

B.

Providing real-time, autonomous execution of performance tests without human oversight.

C.

Interpreting complex requirements and suggesting test objectives based on user stories.

D.

Independently designing and implementing test environments with zero human configuration.

E.

Developing new software features based on high-level user feedback.

Question 7 of 39

A test team is looking to leverage Generative AI. They have two immediate needs:
Need 1. For rapid, ad-hoc exploration: A new tester needs to quickly understand requirements and generate simple, one-off test ideas interactively.
Need 2. For structured, repetitive automation: The team wants to integrate AI into their existing continuous integration (CI) pipeline to automatically generate comprehensive test data for daily regression runs.
Which of the following statements BEST describes how AI chatbots and LLM-powered testing applications would apply to these needs?

A.

Both needs are best addressed by an AI chatbot.

B.

Both needs are best addressed by an LLM-powered testing application.

C.

Need 1 is best addressed by an AI chatbot, and Need 2 by an LLM-powered testing application.

D.

Need 1 is best addressed by an LLM-powered testing application, and Need 2 by an AI chatbot.

Question 8 of 39

A tester is crafting a prompt for an LLM to generate test cases. One part of the prompt reads:
"The generated test cases must be provided in a CSV file format, with columns for Test ID, Description, Preconditions, Test Steps, and Expected Result."
In which component of the six-part prompt structure would this line MOST LIKELY appear?

A.

Role

B.

Constraints

C.

Instruction

D.

Output format

Question 9 of 39

A test engineer is learning about the six components of a structured prompt for Generative AI in software testing.
Which of the following statements INCORRECTLY describes one of these components?

A.

The Role component specifies the persona the Generative AI model should adopt, such as a tester or test automation engineer.

B.

The Context component provides background information about the test object or specific functionality being tested to help the model determine test conditions.

C.

The Instruction component outlines the specific task the Generative AI model is required to perform, including relevant requirements for the task.

D.

The Constraints component is primarily used to specify the desired output format for the AI's response, such as a markdown table or Gherkin syntax.

Question 10 of 39

A test lead needs an LLM to generate a comprehensive test plan summary, which requires iterative refinement and review. The task is complex and benefits from breaking it into smaller, verifiable steps, where the output of one step informs the next.
Which core prompting technique is BEST suited for this scenario?

A.

Few-shot prompting

B.

Meta prompting

C.

Prompt chaining

D.

Zero-shot prompting.
