What is the goal of applying testing practices during continuous discovery?

To validate assumptions and gather feedback early

To delay feedback until after release

To replace the need for user research

To ensure the code is free of all defects

What is a key difference in the feedback loop between continuous testing and traditional testing?

Traditional testing provides faster feedback because it is performed by dedicated testers

Continuous testing provides faster feedback because tests are automated and run frequently

Both approaches provide the same speed of feedback

Continuous testing provides feedback only after the release, while traditional testing provides feedback during development

A QA team is used to a 'test at the end' approach where a dedicated test phase follows development. They are moving to a DevOps model and want to understand the key difference in how testing is scheduled and executed. Which statement best describes the shift to continuous testing?

Testing is performed in a separate phase after all development is complete, but with more automation.

Testing is performed manually by developers as they write code, with no separate test phase.

Testing is performed only in production, using monitoring and telemetry to detect issues after release.

Testing is performed continuously throughout the pipeline, with automated tests running on every change and feedback provided in near real-time.

What is the role of code coverage as a quality gate in pull requests?

To replace the need for static analysis

To ensure that a minimum percentage of code is exercised by tests

To ensure that all tests are written by the developer

To measure the performance of the application

Continuous Testing and Feedback CT-QDO Practice Questions (Page 8)

Part of the Domain 2: Quality Assurance (QA) and Testing in DevOps domain, which makes up ~21% of our current practice bank. ISTQB does not publish an official question count, but from its 60-minute exam (~25–40 total, ~5–8 in this domain), expect 1–2 from this objective — we provide 39 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
