ISTQB CT-TAE – Certified Tester Test Automation Engineer — Question 36

You have just started a new test automation project. The gTAA was created by a consultant who has now left the company. You need to create a TAA that will work for a set of projects that are currently in development. These projects are all being supervised by the same project manager who has strict requirements for the type and amount of reporting that must be done. He has told you that he is looking to have detailed pass/fail metrics reported each time the test automation is run.

Given these requirements, where do you need to implement the change to provide this level of reporting?

Answer options

• A. Test Adaptation Layer of each TAS
• B. Test Execution Layer of the TAA
• C. Report Definition Layer of the gTAA
• D. Management Layer of each TAS

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the Report Definition Layer of the gTAA is specifically designed to handle reporting configurations, which includes generating detailed pass/fail metrics. The other options, while related to the test automation architecture, do not directly address the requirements for reporting as specified by the project manager.
