Which of the following process areas would most likely need specific attention to address the above-mentioned shortcoming?

A test process assessment has been performed at an embedded software organization. All process areas at TMMi Levels 2 and 3 were in scope of the assessment. Many practices required by the TMMi model are already in place, but the organization is missing a master test plan spanning multiple test levels.

Which of the following process areas would most likely need specific attention to address the above-mentioned shortcoming?
A . Test Policy and Strategy
B . Test Planning
C . Test Organization
D . Test Life Cycle and Integration

Answer: D

Explanation:

The absence of a master test plan spanning multiple test levels points to a weakness in the Test Lifecycle and Integration process area, which is a TMMi Level 3 process area. This process area focuses on ensuring that testing is integrated throughout the development lifecycle and includes the development of comprehensive test plans (including master test plans) that cover multiple test levels and align with the overall testing strategy.

Reference: The Test Lifecycle and Integration process area at TMMi Level 3 addresses the need for comprehensive and integrated test planning across all test levels.
