When planning MBT modeling activities, which factor is important to consider?

The number of test execution machines

The color scheme of the modeling tool

The availability of MBT tool support

The office location of the test team

During an MBT project, the team has produced a state machine model and used it to generate test cases. The requirements change. What is the primary input for updating the test model?

The tool's default model templates

The test execution results from the last test run

The updated requirements and system specifications

The previously generated test cases

What is the primary purpose of modeling in the MBT process?

To provide a basis for automated test generation

To replace the need for test execution

To store test results for reporting

To document the project's test plan

A team is using MBT for a system that is still in development, and requirements change frequently. The test model is becoming outdated quickly, and the team is spending too much time updating it. What is the most effective way to address this?

Freeze the model and only update it at major releases

Abandon MBT and revert to manual test design

Automate the model update process using scripts that parse requirement changes

Establish a lightweight model review and update process aligned with each requirement change

A small team with limited MBT experience is planning to introduce MBT for a new project. They have a tight schedule and need to show value quickly. What is the most appropriate approach?

Hire an external consultant to build the model without involving the team

Start with a small pilot model covering a critical subsystem, using a tool with a low learning curve

Skip modeling and use a test automation tool that generates tests from code

Build a comprehensive model of the entire system before generating any tests

Certified Tester Model-Based Testing
