- for each person-month of development team effort, 49 defects

You want to use this information to perform estimation for a new project.

The project manager tells you that he/she has estimated 20000 new LOC for this new project.

Four developers work for four months on this project before system testing.

During system testing, 797 defects are discovered.

Based on this information only, which of the following statement is certainly true about this project?

Number of correct responses: 1

Question #2

The main objectives the senior management team wants to achieve are:

Test analysis for system testing has just begun and the following test conditions have been identified:

TC-SEL-2. Test the selection of the package sizes

TC-SEL-4. Test wrong numbers of bottles for an order

Consider the following statements describing the importance of improving the test process:

Test process improvement is important because being focused only on the test process it can provide recommendations to improve the test process itself, but it can't indicate or suggest improvement to areas of the development process

Test process improvement is important because it is much more effective than software process improvement to improve the quality of a software system

Test process improvement is important because several process improvement models (STEP, TPI Next, TMMi) have been developed over the years

Test process improvement is important because every organization, regardless of the context, should always achieve the maximum level of maturity of testing described in the test improvement models such as TMMi

Which of the following answers is correct?
