PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 110

One of the main purposes for creating a requirements traceability matrix is to:

Answer options

• A. track how requirements can be connected to the solution.
• B. provide test cases to validate solution deliverables.
• C. document stakeholder approval of project requirements.
• D. track the project solution scope.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the requirements traceability matrix is specifically designed to link requirements with the corresponding test cases that validate whether the solution meets those requirements. Options A, C, and D represent other aspects of project management but do not capture the primary purpose of the matrix, which is to ensure thorough testing and validation of deliverables.
