Microsoft Recertification for MCSD: Application Lifecycle Management Sample Questions:

1. You are using Microsoft Test Manager (MTM).
You need to assign test cases to testers so they will be able to find the tests they need to run.
What should you do?

A) Create a test plan for each tester.
B) For each test case, select the tester in the Assigned to field and use a work item query to filter on assigned test cases.
C) Click Assign to designate the tester for each test case, then click Filter when you run the test.
D) In the Assigned to field for each test case, select the tester, then click Filter when you run the test.

2. To support your development team's upgrade from Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2012, you also upgrade from Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2010 to TFS 2012.
You need to provide a TFS 2012 test environment that:
- Includes data and source code from your existing TFS 2010 environment and - Allows your developers to test the new TFS 2012 and Visual Studio 2012 features while keeping the current TFS 2010 environment intact.
What should you do?

A) Install TFS 2012 side-by-side on the same server as TFS 2010. Point TFS 2012 to the existing database, SharePoint, and SQL Reporting Services.
B) Clone the existing TFS 2010 environment (including the existing database, SharePoint, and SQL Reporting Services) on new servers and update the internal IDs. Upgrade the cloned environment to TFS 2012.
C) Install TFS 2012 on a new server. Point TFS 2012 to the existing database, SharePoint, and SQL Reporting Services.
D) Copy the existing TFS 2010 database, SharePoint, and SQL Server Reporting services to a new set of servers. Install TFS 2012 side-by-side on the same hardware as TFS 2010, and point TFS 2012 to the new servers.

3. Your network environment includes a Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 server.
You lead a team of testers that is testing a specific module of an application. You want to list only the test cases that are assigned to you testers.
You need to create a query on work items of the type Test Case.
What are two possible ways to achieve this goal? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose two.)

A) Create a team project level group for testers of your module.
Create a work item query that uses the = operator on the Assigned To field and the group of testers.
B) Create a team for testers of your module.
Create a work item query that uses the = operator on the Assigned To field and the team of testers.
C) Create a team project level group for testers of your module.
Create a work item query that uses the IN GROUP operator on the Assigned To field and the group of testers.
D) Create a team for testers of your module.
Create a work item query that uses the IN GROUP operator on the Assigned To field and the team of testers.

4. Your network environment includes a Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 server with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services (SSRS) and Analysis Services (SSAS).
Users report that the data in their reports is out of date.
You need to view the status of the data warehouse. You also need to view the analysis database jobs and see when each last ran successfully.
What should you do?

A) From any computer on the network:
Use SQL Server Management Studio.
Connect to the SQL server that hosts the TFS databases.
Query the TFS configuration database's _LastUpdatedTime table.
B) From the TFS server:
Browse to http : //<servername> : 8080/tfs/teamfoundation/administration/ v3.0/warehousecontrolservice.asmx
Invoke the GetProcessingStatus operation.
C) From the Team Foundation Server Administration Console:
Expand the application-tier tree.
Select Reporting.
View the Warehouse Database and Analysis Services Database status.
D) From any computer on the network:
Browse to http: //<servername> : 8080/tfs/teamfoundation/administration/ v3.0/warehousecontrolservice.asmx
Invoke the GetProcessingStatus operation.

5. Your network environment includes a Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 server named Server1, which has a single team project collection containing a number of team projects.
You want to outsource some projects to a third-party development team that will connect to Server1 by using a virtual private network (VPN).
You need to ensure that only the projects the team has access to are available in their team project collection.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

A) In the TFS Administration Console, for both the original and cloned team project collections, delete the team projects the respective teams do not need.
B) Use the TFSConfiq.exe collection /attach CollectionDB: ServerName;DatabaseName command to make a copy of the existing team project collection.
C) Use the TFSConfig.exe collection /attach CollectionDB: ServerName;DatabaseName /clone command to make a copy of the existing team project collection.
D) In the TFS Administration Console, select Clone team project collection.
E) Use the TFS Integration Platform to copy the required team projects to the new team project collection.
F) In the TFS Administration Console, create a new empty team project collection.
