iSQI Exam CTFL_Syll_4.0 Topic 1 Question 18 Discussion

Actual exam question for iSQI's CTFL_Syll_4.0 exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 1
[All CTFL_Syll_4.0 Questions]

A system has a self-diagnostics module that starts executing after the system is reset. The diagnostics are running 12 different tests on the systems memory hardware. The following is one of the requirements set for the diagnostics module:

'The time taking the diagnostics tests to execute shall be less than 2 seconds' Which of the following is a failure related to the specified requirement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

A failure is an event in which a component or system does not perform a required function within specified limits1.A requirement is a condition or capability needed by a user to solve a problem or achieve an objective2. In this case, the requirement is that the diagnostics tests should execute in less than 2 seconds. Therefore, any event that violates this requirement is a failure. The only option that clearly violates this requirement is B. The diagnostic tests take too much time to execute. If the diagnostic tests take more than 2 seconds to complete, then they do not meet the specified limit and thus fail. The other options are not necessarily failures related to the specified requirement. Option A. The diagnostic tests fail to start after a system reset is a failure, but not related to the time limit. It is related to the functionality of the self-diagnostics module. Option C. The diagnostic tests that measure the speed of the memory, fail is also a failure, but not related to the time limit. It is related to the accuracy of the memory tests. Option D. The diagnostic tests fail due to incorrect implementation of the test code is also a failure, but not related to the time limit. It is related to the quality of the test code.Reference=ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level Syllabus v4.0,Requirements Engineering Fundamentals.

As a self-proclaimed 'diagnostics expert', I can say with confidence that option B is the correct answer. Anything else is just a distraction from the real issue here.

Haha, option D is just a classic 'something went wrong with the code' answer. If the tests are implemented incorrectly, of course they're not going to meet the time requirement!

That's a good point, maybe A could also be a failure.

The memory speed test failing could definitely be a factor here. If the memory is too slow, it could cause the diagnostics to take longer than 2 seconds. I'm going with option C.

Definitely, option C is the most relevant failure in this scenario.

I think so too, the speed of the memory is crucial for the diagnostics to execute within the specified time.

Yeah, option C seems like the most likely failure related to the specified requirement.

I agree, if the memory speed test fails, it could cause the diagnostics to take longer than 2 seconds.

I'm not sure if the diagnostic tests failing to start is really a failure of the time requirement. That seems more like a problem with the initialization process, not the execution time itself.

C: I see what you mean. It's more about the actual execution time being within the specified limit.

But what if the tests don't even start after a reset? Wouldn't that also be a failure?

Well, if the tests take too long to execute, that's definitely a failure related to the requirement. Duh, option B is the obvious answer here.
