A test organization has been using generative AI for test case generation for six months. They have observed that the AI-generated tests are becoming less effective over time because the application has changed significantly. They also face pressure to reduce testing costs. What is the best approach to address both issues?

Regularly retrain or update the AI model with recent application data and review its outputs.

Reduce the number of AI-generated tests to save costs, even if coverage decreases.

Stop using AI for test generation and rely on manual testing.

Switch to a different AI vendor that offers lower prices.

What is the primary purpose of the 'Optimization and Governance' phase in the adoption of generative AI for testing?

To experiment with generative AI on low-risk tasks to evaluate its potential

To establish guidelines, monitor performance, and continuously improve AI-assisted testing practices

To select the most suitable generative AI tool for the organization's testing needs

To integrate generative AI tools into the existing CI/CD pipeline across all projects

Which sequence best represents the typical phases an organization follows when adopting generative AI in software testing?

Exploration and Pilot, Integration and Scaling, Optimization and Governance

In the optimization and governance phase, a test organization wants to measure the effectiveness of its generative AI usage. Which metric would be most useful for this purpose?

Number of testers using the AI tool daily.

Time spent by testers on non-testing activities.

Percentage of test cases generated by AI that pass on the first run.

Total number of test cases generated by AI, regardless of quality.

A test team is in the pilot phase and finds that the generative AI tool sometimes produces test cases that are not relevant to the application's requirements. What is the most effective way to address this?

Increase the number of test cases generated to increase the chance of relevant ones.

Abandon the tool and return to manual test design.

Accept the irrelevant test cases and manually filter them later.

Refine the prompts and provide more context about the application and requirements.
