A team is using MBT to test a system with high complexity. They want to ensure that their test suite provides adequate coverage of the system's behavior. Which metric would be most appropriate to track?

Model coverage (e.g., state coverage, transition coverage)

A team is defining metrics for their MBT process. They want to include a metric that measures the maintainability of the test suite. Which metric would be most appropriate?

Number of test cases generated per model

Percentage of test cases that are automated

Time to update test cases when the model changes

Number of defects found in the model

A project manager wants to track the success of an MBT deployment in reducing the time to market. Which KPI would be most relevant?

Number of models in the repository

A team is using MBT to test a system where the requirements change frequently. They want to track a metric that indicates how well the MBT approach adapts to changes. Which metric would be most relevant?

Number of test cases executed per day

Time to update the model and regenerate test cases after a requirement change

Number of models in the repository

A team is evaluating the effectiveness of their MBT approach. They have collected data on the number of test cases generated, the number of defects found, and the time spent on test design. Which combination of metrics would give the most balanced view of effectiveness and efficiency?

Time spent on test design and number of models

Number of test cases executed and number of test cases failed

Defects found per test case and time per test case

Total number of test cases and total number of defects

Part of the Evaluating and Deploying an MBT Approach domain, which makes up ~17% of our current practice bank. ISTQB does not publish an official question count, but from its 60-minute exam (~25–40 total, ~4–7 in this domain), expect 1–1 from this objective — we provide 20 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
