Sample Practice Questions:
Question: 1
Question Text: You are a tester on an Agile team where quality ownership is distributed across team members. Your test lead explains that testers in Agile teams take on coaching and quality ownership responsibilities beyond traditional test execution. Which TWO of the following activities BEST reflect the coaching and quality ownership responsibilities of a tester in an Agile team? (Select TWO)
A. Guiding developers on how to write effective unit tests to improve the team's overall test coverage
B. Executing all performance and security testing independently without involving the development team to preserve test objectivity
C. Documenting all test results in a formal test report and submitting it to the project manager after each sprint
D. Facilitating a discussion with the team on improving the definition of done to include additional quality criteria
Answer: A, D
Explanation:
A. This is correct because Agile testers are expected to coach team members on test techniques and quality practices, including unit test design, as per reference section 2.3.2. This coaching activity directly reflects the quality ownership dimension of the Agile tester role.
B. This is incorrect because performing all non-functional testing in isolation from the development team contradicts the whole-team quality ownership model. Agile quality responsibilities are shared, and non-functional testing is most effective when developers contribute their technical understanding alongside the tester's test design skills. This option misrepresents objectivity as a justification for role isolation.
C. This is incorrect because submitting formal test reports to a project manager is a traditional reporting activity not characteristic of the Agile tester's coaching and quality ownership role. Agile testers communicate quality status through team-facing mechanisms such as task boards and standups, not through formal upward reporting.
D. This is correct because facilitating improvements to the definition of done is a quality ownership activity that enables the tester to embed higher quality standards into the team's shared acceptance of story completion, as per reference section 2.3.2. This responsibility reflects the collaborative, team-wide quality ownership model in Agile.

Question: 2
Question Text: "Match each planning activity in Column 1 with the planning level it belongs to in Column 2.
Column 1:
Prioritising the product backlog for the upcoming release
Selecting user stories to implement in the next iteration
Identifying product risks that affect the release scope
Estimating testing effort for stories committed in the sprint
Column 2:
A. Release planning - identifying and assessing product-level risks
B. Release planning - prioritising and scoping the product backlog
C. Iteration planning - allocating testing effort for committed stories
D. Iteration planning - selecting and committing to user stories for the sprint"
A. 1B, 2D, 3A, 4C
B. 1A, 2C, 3D, 4B
C. 1C, 2A, 3B, 4D
D. 1D, 2B, 3C, 4A
Answer: A
Explanation:
A. This is correct because prioritising the product backlog (1) maps to release planning scoping (B), selecting user stories (2) maps to iteration planning commitment (D), identifying product risks that affect release scope (3) maps to release planning risk activities (A), and estimating testing effort for sprint stories (4) maps to iteration planning effort allocation (C), as per reference section 1.2.5. Each activity is correctly matched to the planning horizon at which it provides the most value. The other combinations misassign at least one activity to the wrong planning level.
B. This is incorrect because this mapping assigns backlog prioritisation (1) to release-level risk identification (A) and misplaces product risk identification (3) to iteration planning commitment (D). Backlog prioritisation is a release-level scoping concern, not a risk identification task. This combination introduces multiple misalignments between activities and their appropriate planning horizons.
C. This is incorrect because this mapping assigns story selection (2) to release planning risk activities (A) and product risk identification (3) to iteration planning effort allocation (B), which reverses the correct scope for both activities. Story selection for implementation is an iteration-level activity, and product risk identification that affects release scope belongs at the release level. This option systematically mismatches planning level and activity scope.
D. This is incorrect because all four mappings in this combination are incorrect relative to the planning horizons defined in the CTFL-AT syllabus. Backlog prioritisation (1) is incorrectly mapped to iteration planning commitment (D), story selection (2) to release planning scoping (B), risk identification (3) to iteration planning effort allocation (C), and effort estimation (4) to release planning risk activities (A). None of the four activities are correctly matched to their planning level.

Question: 3
Question Text: In Scrum, which term describes the maximum fixed-length period within which the development team must deliver a potentially shippable product increment?
A. Sprint.
B. Iteration backlog.
C. Definition of Done.
D. Release cycle.
Answer: A
Explanation:
A. This is correct because a Sprint is the fixed-length, timeboxed iteration in Scrum during which the development team delivers a potentially shippable product increment, as per reference section 1.2.1. The Sprint is the fundamental unit of development in Scrum, with a defined start and end date that does not change once begun. No other Scrum term describes this specific timeboxed delivery period.
B. This is incorrect because an iteration backlog, or sprint backlog, is the list of tasks and user stories selected for the current sprint, not the timebox itself. The sprint backlog describes the work to be done within the sprint, not the fixed-length period of time. The timebox is called a Sprint.
C. This is incorrect because the Definition of Done is a shared agreement that describes the criteria a product increment must meet to be considered complete. It defines quality and completeness conditions, not the time period for delivering the increment. The Definition of Done and the Sprint are distinct Scrum concepts.
D. This is incorrect because a release cycle refers to the broader cadence at which completed software is deployed to stakeholders or users, which may span multiple sprints. A release cycle is not defined as a fixed-length timebox within Scrum. The Sprint is the specific timeboxed concept described in this question.
