Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 321

You are the business analyst for a smaller project where there are few requirements. Management would still like you to create a method to trace the few requirements for this project. What type of matrix would be best in this instance?

Answer options

• A. Coverage matrix
• B. Requirements trace matrix
• C. Roles and responsibility matrix
• D. RACI matrix

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Requirements trace matrix is specifically designed to track the status and progress of requirements throughout the project lifecycle, making it the most suitable choice. The Coverage matrix focuses on ensuring all features are covered, while the Roles and responsibility matrix and RACI matrix pertain to team roles and responsibilities, which are not directly related to requirement tracking.
