ISTQB CTAL-TM Question Answer

You have done a comprehensive risk analysis. You have involved the appropriate people in assessing the risks and determining the likelihood and impact of those risks. You have been testing for three months and have been able to mitigate 75% of the high risk items. You have two weeks left in testing and you now do not expect to be able to complete all the items on the high-risk

mitigation list, never mind any from the medium or low-risk lists.

What is the most effective action you should take? [3]

Use a random selection algorithm to pick tests from the high, medium, and low risk mitigation lists - thereby ensuring that each risk list has some mitigation.

Present your risk mitigation progress and project status to the project's stakeholders, and request additional time or assistance in re-prioritizing the remaining high-risk items.

Concentrate testing in areas that have already found numerous problems.

Retest the highest risk areas to ensure no regressions have occurred.
