To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) i, ii, iii is true and iv is false:
- i) Interaction with the Test Tool Vendor to identify the best ways to leverage the test tool on the project: This is a task of a tester as they may need to collaborate with the test tool vendor to understand how to utilize the tool effectively.
- ii) Prepare and acquire Test Data: This is also a task of a tester as they need to ensure that appropriate test data is available for testing.
- iii) Implement Tests on all test levels, execute and log the tests: This is a task of a tester as they are responsible for implementing tests, executing them, and logging the results.
- iv) Create the Test Specifications: This option is marked as false, but it is incorrect. Creating test specifications is also a task of a tester.
Option B) ii, iii, iv is true and i is false:
- ii) Prepare and acquire Test Data: This is a task of a tester as they need to ensure that appropriate test data is available for testing.
- iii) Implement Tests on all test levels, execute and log the tests: This is a task of a tester as they are responsible for implementing tests, executing them, and logging the results.
- iv) Create the Test Specifications: This is a task of a tester as they need to create test specifications to define the scope, objectives, and requirements of the tests.
- i) Interaction with the Test Tool Vendor to identify the best ways to leverage the test tool on the project: This option is marked as false, which is correct. Testers may interact with the test tool vendor, but it is not their primary task.
Option C) i is true and ii, iii, iv are false:
- i) Interaction with the Test Tool Vendor to identify the best ways to leverage the test tool on the project: This option is marked as true, which is incorrect. While testers may interact with the test tool vendor, it is not their primary task.
- ii) Prepare and acquire Test Data: This is marked as false, which is incorrect. Testers are responsible for preparing and acquiring test data.
- iii) Implement Tests on all test levels, execute and log the tests: This is marked as false, which is incorrect. Testers are responsible for implementing tests, executing them, and logging the results.
- iv) Create the Test Specifications: This is marked as false, which is incorrect. Testers are responsible for creating test specifications.
Option D) iii and iv is correct and i and ii are incorrect:
- iii) Implement Tests on all test levels, execute and log the tests: This option is marked as correct, which is true. Testers are responsible for implementing tests, executing them, and logging the results.
- iv) Create the Test Specifications: This option is marked as correct, which is true. Testers are responsible for creating test specifications.
- i) Interaction with the Test Tool Vendor to identify the best ways to leverage the test tool on the project: This is marked as incorrect, which is true. While testers may interact with the test tool vendor, it is not their primary task.
- ii) Prepare and acquire Test Data: This is marked as incorrect, which is true. Testers are responsible for preparing and acquiring test data.
The correct answer is B) ii, iii, iv is true and i is false. These options correctly represent the tasks of a tester.
