ISQI Certified Tester Foundation Level — Question 3

What content would be in an incident report if that incident report was based on the IEEE 829 Standard for SoftwareTest Documentation?
(i)Identification of configuration items of the software or system.
(ii)Software or system lifecycle process in which the incident was observed.
(iii)Description of the anomaly to enable reproduction of the incident.
(iv)Number of occurrences of the incident.
(v)Classification of the cause of the incident for metrics and for reporting purposes.

Answer options

• A. i, ii, iii
• B. ii, iii
• C. i, iii, iv
• D. i, ii, iii, v A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the IEEE 829 Standard emphasizes the importance of identifying configuration items, the lifecycle process where the incident was observed, and a description of the anomaly for reproducibility. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they omit crucial components required by the standard, specifically either the identification of configuration items or the classification of the cause of the incident.
