Tank- Hide, theres survivors over there. Wait. Then attack
Boomer- Hide, theres survivors over there. Wait. Then attack
Smoker- Hide, theres survivors over there. Wait. Then attack
Hunter- Hide, theres survivors over there. Wait. Then attack
Did I win?
witch:
wait on a rooftop and do a kamikaze-like dive with your broomstick XD

I think the most effective ambushes would be:
tank~Jump through a wall (I think I heard that was possible in some areas) at the entrance of a dark alley, causing the survivors to run backwards, into some infected. Then proceed to throw cars, dirt, etc. in their faces.
boomer~A HUGE FART IN THEIR GENERAL DIRECTION!
smoker~Up on a rooftop so you can grab a survivor and then move backwards, out of harms way, while you hang him/her. Also a good position to be in if you miss I assume.
hunter~Pouncing on the most isolated survivor during an infected rush. Preferably in a situation likely to cause a wall of infected between you and the other survivors for cover.
Basically, anything to put more pressure on survivors during an infected rush and get their health down as much as you can before dying. I think using the standard infected to your advantage will likely form a sizeable part of infected boss gameplay/tactics, particularly for the boomer.

It would be cool if when the survivors ran in a straight line and you pounced(as a hunter) the front or back one that you knocked the others down too, making them take time to get back up while you kill the one you pounced.

All of them: Find exploits in walls and objects, then butt rape when they come by.

or....as a boomer just vomit as manny times posible the infected mobs will go crazy and atack the survivors while there fighting the mobs off you can pick 1 out whit the smoker isolate 2 others whit the tank and kill the 1 who's left whit a quick atack from the hunter :D
and if that doesnt work just boooom your way in to them whit the boomer

You guys got it all wrong.
Tank: That's the general direction of the survivors. Go there and throw shit around the place.
:P

You can't move once you fire your tongue.
you pounced(as a hunter) the front or back one that you knocked the others down too, making them take time to get back up while you kill the one you pounced.
Pouncing does not cause knock-back. It just knocks the ONE person you hit to the ground and you claw them to death. Lunge causes knockbacks but doesn't knock anyone down.

Why else do you think I said rooftop would be a good place to be if you miss? If they don't see your tongue or its direction, they're not likely to see you on the roof reeling it back in.
EDIT: Nvm, just got what you meant. I thought I'd put on a roof away from the edge or something like that. Must have forgot about the no moving with extended tongue when I posted it.
