You work as the Enterprise application developer at Domain.com. The Domain.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Domain.com. All servers in the domain run Windows Server 2003. Your responsibilities at Domain.com include the testing and stabilization of applications.
Domain.com operates as an airline company.
Another Domain.com tester named Rory Allen discovered a bug in the flight scheduling component. At present the component’s code is checked into source control. You need to apply the appropriate actions to fix and deploy the bug fix. What should you do?
To answer, select the appropriate actions and place them in the correct order in the work area.
A.
B.
C.
D.
Explanation:
1: The first action that you should take is to reproduce the bug in the development environment. – This will allow you to check if the bug exists only in production. If this is so, then it might require only a configuration change to resolve the bug. However, if the bug is also present in development, it might require a code change to resolve the bug.
2: Next step: -check out the necessary code from source control – this will allow you to keep a history of the component’s change. If the component is fixed incorrectly, it will allow you to revert back to the previous version.
3: Next step: – fix the bug – this step includes performing unit testing to ensure that the fix is correct.
4: Next step: – check the fix into source control – this will ensure that the deployed component matches the latest version that is in source control.
5: Next step: – deploy the fix to the test environment – this step will allow the tester to ensure that the bug has been fixed. An integration test should be performed against the component if the fix results in a change in the interface.
6: Next step: – deploy the fix to the production environment – at this stage the component should be testes successfully and the fixed version is available in the development and testing environments.
Incorrect answer:
You should not reproduce the bug in the production environment. This should be done in the development department to determine whether a code change is needed or not.
