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?

    Correct Answer: C

    The test execution layer consists of the tools and processes needed for executing test cases automatically, logging test case executions, and reporting the test results. This layer is responsible for generating the results from the tests, which are critical for merging the test automation results with the test management system to provide a comprehensive view of the progress to managers.

Syllabus says Execution layer contains reporting results. Would go with C

mustoooOption: C

In teh syllabus you have a picture of gTAA. You can see that the interface from the test execution layer can be done straight to test management layer. IMO test adaptation layer is to SUT.

FrancisFerreiraOption: D

There is no gTAA layer called "reporting"... Reports are handled by the execution layer. Interfaces are handled by the adaptation layer. So, either C or D. Assuming that by "proper reporting" they refer to the consolidation of test results, I would go with D, coz the execution layer would gather the automation results, but the consolidation would ultimately be handled by the adaptation layer via the interface to the test management system.
