ISTQB CT-TAE – Certified Tester Test Automation Engineer — Question 30

You are using a gTAA to create a TAS for a project. The TAS is aimed specifically at automating given sets of manual test cases for standalone desktop applications. All the interactions between TAS and SUT will involve only the GUI of such applications.

Based only on the given information, which of the following components of the gTAA would you include in the TAS?

Answer options

• A. The protocol component of the test adaptation layer
• B. The test model component of the test generation layer
• C. The API component of the test adaptation layer
• D. The test reporting component of the test execution layer

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the test model component of the test generation layer is essential for creating automated tests based on the GUI interactions of standalone desktop applications. The other options, such as the protocol component and API component, are not relevant to GUI-based automation, while the test reporting component focuses on output rather than test generation.
