A project aims to deliver a means of enabling the inhabitants of an archipelago to vote via the Internet. Although the technology exists to provide Internet coverage for the islands, it is notoriously difficult (and therefore expensive) to provide robust coverage because of the remote location. Two of the requirements captured from stakeholders are provided below:
1. The solution shall provide all inhabitants with the ability to register and vote for a presidential candidate.
2. All voters shall receive an email confirmation that their vote has been registered within 2 minutes of voting.
Which requirements filter will be particularly relevant in requirements analysis?

  1. Checking for solutions
  2. Confirming relevance
  3. Feasibility evaluation
  4. Removing conflicts

Answer(s): C



In a requirements catalogue, a distinction is often made between business level and solution level requirements.
Why is this distinction made?

  1. To allow the high-level goals of the solution to be expressed as solution requirements
  2. To highlight the technical constraints in which the solution requirements must operate
  3. To reduce the number of functional requirements in the requirements catalogue
  4. To separate strategic requirements from those that only provide value to the project

Answer(s): A



A business analyst is concerned that the project team may not have a consistent understanding of the requirements set, as project team members have been working on their own individual tasks. He wants to ensure that the whole team is on track and is willing to take the time needed to achieve this.

To begin the process of improving team understanding, he wants to hold a meeting to explain and present his understanding of the requirements to the team, and to hear their thoughts and ideas about his work so far.
Which of the following approaches to requirements validation will he be using?

  1. Formal review
  2. Peer review
  3. Structured walkthrough
  4. Technical review
