Question 28

Your organisation has successfully implemented a Test Automaton Solution (TAS) for a new project which has since been delivered into production via a number of sprints. A series of maintenance releases are now planned.

Some improvements were made to the Test Automation Architecture (TAA) as a result of feedback from the early sprints. The TAA improvements affected the TA, and the TAS was changed for the final sprint.

The new version of the TAS was generally well received but some performance and usability issues were encountered with the TAS which have yet to be addressed.

The test automation engineers supporting the maintenance releases must decide whether to use the enhanced TAS or the version that was used successfully for previous sprints.

What is the BEST action to take next?

    Correct Answer: A

    The best action to take next is to perform an analysis of risks versus benefits for the enhanced TAS and then decide which version to use. This approach allows for a thorough assessment of the potential impacts of using the enhanced version, taking into consideration the unresolved performance and usability issues. By evaluating the risks and benefits, the decision can be more informed and aligned with the organization's needs and priorities, ensuring that the maintenance releases are supported effectively and safely.
