CBAP Exam - Question 347


Company A is a nation-wide leader in commercial demolition. Having just celebrated its 100th year of operations, the company decided to begin doing work internationally. The current system used for reporting company finances is unable to keep pace with the potential demands of doing work in geographically dispersed locations. Therefore, the company decided to replace its client-based Profit & Loss (P&L) reporting system with a more robust, web-based system. This will ensure transparency across the organization and enable better decision making.

The business analyst (BA) at Company A has recently completed several rounds of elicitation to determine the requirements for the new, web-based system. Over

1250 requirements were elicited. An initial Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM) has been drafted, and a subset of the RTM can be seen below:

While verifying the requirements, the BA notices that Requirement ID NFO0003 does not meet the "unambiguous" or the "testable" characteristics of requirements quality. The BA plans to re-write the requirement.

Which of the following requirements is both unambiguous and testable?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BC

The requirement 'The solution shall employ a background color blue (HEX #0000FF)' is both unambiguous and testable. The use of the HEX code (#0000FF) specifies the exact color, eliminating any room for interpretation or ambiguity. Moreover, the use of the HEX code for the color provides a clear, objective criterion that can be easily verified during testing to ensure the requirement is met.
