1. Tools are classified according to the test activities that they support.
2. Intrusive instuments may affect the actual outcome of the test. For instance, the amount of code coverage achieved may be distorted due to the use of a coverage tool. The consequence of using intrusive tools is called the probe effect.
3. Tool support for test execution and logging are used to support and enhance test execution and logging activities.

1) It classifies them according to the activities that they support.
2) They may affect the actual outcome of the test
3) Test execution and logging tools

My answers for the quiz are:
1. The Syllabus classifies the test tools according to their purpose and the test activities they support.
2. The term "intrusive" means that the tools may affect the actual outcome of the test. This is similar to the observer effect.
3. Test runs, coverage and test harness implementation are dealt with by test execution and logging tools.
