Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 493

A business analyst (BA) is informing stakeholders about the importance of quality when eliciting requirements. What characteristic describes a quality requirement?

Answer options

• A. Simplistic
• B. Consistent
• C. Critical
• D. Functional

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as a quality requirement must be consistent to ensure that all stakeholders have a clear and shared understanding. Option A, 'Simplistic', does not capture the depth needed for quality requirements, while C, 'Critical', and D, 'Functional', do not directly address the consistency aspect that is vital for quality.
