A company is evaluating MBT for a system that is expected to have a 10-year lifespan. The initial model creation is complex and requires significant effort. The system will undergo major changes every two years. Which ROI factor should be the primary focus?

The short-term cost of model creation

The long-term savings from reduced test maintenance over the 10-year lifespan

Which factor most significantly contributes to the return on investment for a model-based testing initiative?

The time spent on training testers to use MBT tools

The initial investment in MBT tool licenses

The number of test cases generated per model

The ability to reuse models across multiple projects

A company is introducing MBT. The test team is resistant because they fear losing control over test design. The development team is concerned that models will not reflect the actual system. What is the most effective strategy to address these concerns?

Provide testers with a new role as model reviewers, but do not involve developers

Use a tool that automatically generates tests without requiring model review

Establish a cross-functional team that includes testers and developers to review and validate models

Limit the use of MBT to non-critical systems to reduce risk

A company is introducing MBT. The test team is concerned about job security, and the development team is worried about the accuracy of the models. What is the most effective way to address these organizational concerns?

Involve both teams in the MBT adoption process and provide training on the new roles and model validation

Promise that MBT will find all defects

Reassure the test team that their jobs will not change

Implement MBT without involving the teams to avoid disruption

A company is deciding between two MBT tools. Tool A has a lower license cost but requires significant model maintenance. Tool B has a higher license cost but provides automated model validation that reduces maintenance effort. Which approach should be used to make the decision?

Perform a total cost of ownership analysis that includes license, training, and maintenance over a 3-year period

Choose Tool B because it reduces maintenance effort

Choose Tool A because it has a lower initial cost

Select the tool with the most features
