Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 240

A project for a new product is progressing well. The requirements for the project are defined and accepted, the models include acceptance criteria, and the testing team is organized to work through the system. Testing is showing that expected versus actual results are not the same.

What should the practitioner do?

Answer options

• A. Walk through the process flow models to identify gaps.
• B. Create an issue document and discuss it with the project manager.
• C. Review the requirements traceability matrix with the testers.
• D. Ensure that the testers are aware of the tolerance range.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because reviewing the requirements traceability matrix helps ensure that all requirements are being tested and met. Option A focuses on process models, which may not address the specific discrepancies. Option B is too general and does not directly resolve the issue at hand. Option D, while important, does not tackle the root cause of the differences in testing results.
