Question #: 43
Topic #: 1

You have investigated a new tool which enables the modelling of the SUT and can then generate test cases either manually or automatically. You have convinced your managers that the best way forward is to conduct a pilot project for this tool. You need to select a project to use for the pilot. You have the choice of the following projects:

Project A: A two-year project that is critical to the business and is currently in the requirement phase. This project is for a new e-commerce web site and is mostly being developed ''in-house" although the payment system is being developed and delivered by a 3rd party provider.

Project B: A safety critical application for software to drive and park cars.

Project C: An upgrade to an important HR timesheet tracking application that will be available on a desktop and mobile application. This is a 1-month project developed in-house.

Project D The payment system from project A.

Which project would be BEST for the pilot?

AProject A because it is a large project and has high visibility and is in the requirement phase.

BProject B because it is a safety critical system and has high visibility.

CProject C because it is a short, low priority project but is important.

DProject D because it is a small part of a larger project and will help show the tool's capabilities.

I'm feeling a bit like a car salesman trying to pick the right project. Maybe we should just let the tool decide - it's probably better at making these decisions than we are!

Project D is the obvious choice. It's a small part of a larger project, so it's a great way to dip our toes in and see how the tool performs without risking the whole project.

I disagree. Project B is the way to go. Safety-critical systems should be the priority, and the high visibility will really showcase the tool's strengths.
