Exam CT-TAE topic 1 question 30 discussion

Actual exam question from ISTQB's CT-TAE
Question #: 30
Topic #: 1
[All CT-TAE Questions]

You are the TAE for an Agile project which has six sprints for the current release. Sprint five is underway and the automated regression suite is due to start later today.
You have re-examined the results from the automated regression runs for the past four sprints. You notice that two test cases both reported a pass for sprints 1 and 4 but a fail for sprints 2 and 3. The failures have gone undetected and are therefore unexplained. Both test cases are closely coupled with other tests in the suite.
What course of action SHOULD you take?

  • A. Run the regression suite as planned and see If the tests fail again if they do, determine the cause of failure.
  • B. Remove the test cases from the regression suite and refer them to the test designer for manual testing for future sprints.
  • C. Quarantine the test cases, run the regression suite without them, and perform root cause analysis on the test cases in parallel.
  • D. Run the test cases manually now. If they still pass, keep them in the regression suite, if they fail perform root cause analysis.
