How many questions are on the CTFL-PT exam, and how much time do I get?

The CTFL-PT exam contains 40 (typical ISTQB Foundation-style format) questions to be completed within 60 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

What score do I need to pass the CTFL-PT exam, and what does it cost?

The passing score for the CTFL-PT exam is Typically 65% (confirm with official syllabus/exam provider), and the official registration fee is Varies by region and provider (typically ~EUR 200–250 equivalent).

Question #5

You have been asked to test the performance of a software and system update to a North American mobile trivia quiz game application The quiz app is available on major app stores serving English-speaking users.The number of concurrent users planned for is 5 million Winning quiz participants are promised a share of an allocated cash prize Once participants start playing, their quiz sessions must not be lost especially if all previous questions were answered correctly. The application owner wants to ensure that 99% of quiz sessions are maintained (up to 4.95 million sessions) until the last answer has been successfully recorded.
You performed 100 test runs that provided 5 million virtual concurrent users.You have measurements of participant concurrency at the last question for each test run In your analysis, you order all the concurrency test results by measured concurrency value from best to worst.You determine 85%. 90%. 95% and 100% values by selecting the 85th. 90th. 95th and 100th (last and worst) measured values by counting list positions starting from the best value going towards the worst until you reach the desired list position (ex. 85). Keep in mind, the results in lower list positions are as good or better than the results chosen for reporting.
After analyzing the results of the performance tests, you present the following results
85% 4.92 million valid concurrent users
90% 4.90 million valid concurrent users
95%: 4.0 millionvalid concurrent users
100%. 3.8 million valid concurrent users
Based on these results, what should you report to thestakeholders?

A. These results clearly show that the system update successfully supports 99% of five million participants
B. The performance tests clearly have failed to produce a realistic and compatible load.The results should confirm the test oracle in that the 99% of five million participants concurrency objective has been achieved.If the performance test plan had worked correctly, the reported values should have been 85%
4.95, 90% 4.95, 95% 4 95 and 100% 4.95 million valid concurrent users.
C. If we pick 85 out of 100 test runs as the minimum level of reliability, thesystem update does not reliabilitymeet the 99% of five million participants concurrency target,However not all results are as bad as these
D. Four samples from the first fifteen ordered test results are presented. The system update performed much worse than what is presented here. The system update has failed to meet the 99% of five million participants concurrency objective.
