What is a recommended practice for managing stakeholder expectations during MBT deployment?

Communicate only after the deployment is complete to avoid confusion

Promise that MBT will reduce testing effort to zero

Involve stakeholders only when problems arise

Provide regular updates on progress and realistic benefits

An organization is deploying MBT. The development team is enthusiastic, but the test team is resistant because they fear job loss. What is the best strategy to manage this resistance?

Focus only on the development team and ignore the test team's concerns.

Communicate that MBT will change their role to focus on higher-value activities like modeling and analysis.

Reassure them that no jobs will be lost, even if that is not certain.

Offer early retirement packages to all testers.

How can an organization address resistance to MBT adoption?

By ignoring concerns and proceeding with deployment

By providing training and involving team members in the deployment process

By limiting access to information about MBT

By threatening consequences for non-compliance

A large organization is deploying MBT. The test team is distributed across multiple locations and has varying levels of experience. Management wants a uniform rollout within one quarter. What is the most effective risk mitigation strategy?

Roll out to all locations simultaneously to meet the deadline.

Conduct a phased rollout with a pilot in one location, then adapt the approach before expanding.

Provide the same training to all locations and expect uniform adoption.

Defer deployment until all teams have the same skill level.

A company has a mature testing process with extensive documentation and regulatory compliance requirements. They want to adopt MBT without losing compliance evidence. What is the best approach?

Stop all documentation to reduce overhead.

Adapt the process to include model reviews and traceability from models to requirements and test cases.

Keep the old process and run MBT in parallel without integrating it.

Replace the documented process entirely with MBT-generated artifacts.
