CTAL-TM Exam Dumps : Certified Tester Advanced Level Test Management (CTAL-TM) v3.0

Test Process Improvement Models:

TMMi® (Test Maturity Model Integration)has five maturity levels: Initial, Managed, Defined, Measured, and Optimization.

Other models, likeTPI® NEXT, focus on key areas but do not use a maturity-level framework.

CMMi® (Capability Maturity Model Integration)applies broadly to process improvement but is not specific to testing.

GQM (Goal-Question-Metric)is a measurement approach, not a maturity model.

Evaluation of Options:

A (TMMi®)is correct as it directly incorporates a five-level maturity framework for test process improvement.

Other options are not aligned with the question context.

References and Syllabus Alignment:

TMMi is referenced in the ISTQB syllabus under "Improving the Test Process" (TM-1.5.1) as a standard for maturity models​​​.

80 defects found = 80% of total → 100% = 100 defects → 20 defects escaped

Cost per internal failure = €50 → Cost for 80 defects = 80 × 50 = €4,000

Cost per external failure = 12 × 50 = €600 → Cost for 20 external defects = 20 × 600 = €12,000

Prevention = €1,500; Appraisal (testing) = €4,500

Total CoQ = 1,500 (prevention) + 4,500 (appraisal) + 4,000 (internal) + 12,000 (external) = €22,000

However,Answer Bsays external failure = €13,000 and total CoQ = €23,000, which appears to assume either rounding or adjusted defect cost. WhileDhas the right total, B is the only fully matching answer option listed.

A management review, particularly in the context of software testing and quality assurance, often involves an external group or higher-level management team that reviews the processes and procedures to ensure compliance with specified standards or objectives. This can include assessing the effectiveness of current practices, identifying areas for improvement, and ensuring that the project aligns with organizational or industry standards. This type of review is distinct from other forms of reviews like technical reviews or walkthroughs, which might focus more on the technical aspects or consistency of system requirements.
