Which of the following is an example of a test coverage metric?

Requirements coverage (percentage of requirements tested)

What is the primary purpose of a burn-up chart in agile test monitoring?

To display the team's velocity in story points per sprint

To show the total amount of work completed against the total scope over time

To show the time spent on each test case

To track the number of defects found each day

In agile testing, what does 'velocity' typically measure?

The percentage of automated tests

The number of defects found per day

The speed of test execution in tests per hour

The amount of work (e.g., story points) completed in an iteration

A team is testing a new authentication module. After executing 200 test cases, they found 20 defects. The module has 5,000 lines of code. The test lead wants to compare the defect density of this module with other modules in the product. What is the defect density of the authentication module?

25 defects per 1,000 lines of code

4 defects per 1,000 lines of code

10 defects per 1,000 lines of code

0.4 defects per 1,000 lines of code

A test team has limited time to complete testing for a release. The product has several modules: a payment module (high business risk), a reporting module (medium risk), and a help module (low risk). The test lead must decide where to focus monitoring efforts. What is the most appropriate approach?

Monitor the reporting module more closely because it is the largest

Monitor only the payment module since it is the highest risk

Focus monitoring on the payment module, with less frequent checks on the reporting and help modules

Monitor all modules equally to ensure balanced coverage

Part of the Test Management and Test Process Improvement domain, which makes up ~24% of our current practice bank. ISTQB does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~8–14 in this domain), expect 2–4 from this objective — we provide 31 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
