Front End Development Risk Assessment & Management 3

Question 1

Which technique helps identify front-end risks early by continuously integrating code changes and running automated tests?

Accepted Answer

Continuous Integration (CI)

Answer

CI catches regressions and integration failures immediately after each commit, reducing the cost and risk of late-stage defects.

Question 2

A product team learns that browser vendor X will drop support for a CSS feature your app relies on in 6 months. This is an example of which risk category?

Accepted Answer

Obsolescence / technology risk

Answer

Technology obsolescence risk arises when a platform or feature you depend on is deprecated or removed by its maintainer.

Question 3

When assessing risk severity, a 5×5 risk matrix plots risks based on which two dimensions?

Accepted Answer

Probability and impact

Answer

A standard risk matrix rates each risk on likelihood of occurrence (probability) and severity of consequences (impact).

Question 4

Your SPA relies on a CDN to serve static assets. What risk should you plan a contingency for?

Accepted Answer

CDN outage making the app inaccessible to all users simultaneously

Answer

A CDN failure can instantly make your entire front-end unavailable, so an origin fallback or multi-CDN strategy should be in place.

Question 5

Accepted Answer
