4.1.1 "It is important to DEFINE THE SCOPE of validation for a test automation pilot. A pilot project does not take a long time to conduct, but the outcome may have a significant impact on the direction that the project takes. Based on the information gathered about the SUT and the REQUIREMENTS ON THE PROJECT, the following should be evaluated to set up guidelines to optimize the test automation efforts: ● Programming language(s) that will be used ● Suitable commercial off-the-shelf/open-source tools ● Test levels to cover ● Test cases selected ● Test case development approach" i.e. every other consideration is SECOND to the consideration of choosing the appropriate pilot project

Selected Answer: B

Plan the pilot The pilot should be treated as a regular development project: make a plan, reserve budget and resources, report on the progress, define milestones, etc. An extra attention point is to make sure that the people working on the TAS deployment (i.e., a champion) can spend enough effort on the deployment even when other projects demand the resources for their activities.
