Comptia Project + Project Management

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Making relevant information available to project stakeholders






2. Identifying quality requirements and/or standards for the project and product and documenting how the project will demonstrate compliance






3. Deliverable or project work component at the lowest level of each branch of the work breakdown structure






4. Output from performing project management processes and activities. results include outcomes and documents.






5. Risk response planning technique for a threat that creates changes to the project management plan that are meant to either eliminate the risk or to protect the project objectives from its impact.






6. Processes required to ensure timely and appropriate generation - collection - distribution - storage - retrieval - and ultimate disposition of project information






7. Deliverable that is subject to approval by the project sponsor or customer






8. Bar chart showing the amount of time that a resource is scheduled to work over a series of time periods.






9. Determining which risks may affect the project and documenting their characteristics






10. A documented tabulation of schedule activities that shows the activity description - activity identifier - and a sufficiently detailed scope of work description so project team members understand what work is to be performed






11. Collection of logically related project activities - usually culminating in the completion of a major deliverable. project phase is a component of the project life cycle






12. Processes involved in estimating - budgeting - and controlling costs so that the project can be completed within the approved budget






13. Project schedule network diagram drawn in such a way that the position and length of the schedule activity represents its duration. bar chart that includes schedule network logic






14. Identifying early and late start dates as well as early and late finish dates for the uncompleted portions of project schedule activities






15. Summary level schedule that identifies the major schedule milestone






16. The time in calendar units between the actual start date of the schedule activity and either the data date of the project schedule if the schedule activity is in progress or the actual finish date if the schedule activity is complete






17. Project schedule compression that changes network logic to overlap phases that would normally be done in sequence






18. Dependency between two project schedule activities or between project schedule activity and schedule milestone.






19. Planning technique used to provide products - services and results that truly reflect customer requirements by translating those customer requirements into the appropriate technical requirements for each phase of project product development






20. Measure of schedule efficiency on a project. ratio of earned value (EV) and the planned value (PV). SV = EV minus PV.






21. Shortening the project schedule duration without reducing the project scope






22. The process of defining and documenting stakeholder needs to meet project objectives






23. Point in time associated with a schedule activities' start.






24. Defined systematic procedure employed by a human resource to perform an activity to produce a product or result or deliver a service that may employ one or more tools






25. Those processes performed to finalize all activities across all project management process groups to formally close the project or phase






26. Narrative description of the project scope - including major deliverables - project assumptions - project constraints and a description of work that provides a documented basis for making future project decisions and for confirming or developing a co






27. Reserve






28. The earliest point in time on which the uncompleted portions of a schedule activity can start - based on the schedule network logic - the data date and any schedule constraints.






29. Any unique and verifiable product - result - or capability to perform a service that must be produced to complete a process - phase or project.






30. The latest possible point in time that a schedule activity maybe completed based upon schedule network logic - the completion date and any constraints assigned to the schedule activities without violating a schedule constraint or delaying the project






31. Formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverables






32. Document that specifies in a complete precise verifiable manner the requirements - design behavior or other characteristics of a system component - product - result or service






33. The calculation of late finish dates and late start dates for uncompleted portions of all schedule activities. determined by working backward through the schedule network logic from the projects end date






34. An estimating technique that uses a statistical relationship between historical data and other variables (sq. foot in construction - lines of code in software development) to calculate an estimate for activity parameters such as scope - cost - budget






35. The expected total cost of a schedule activity - a work breakdown structure component or the project when the defined scope of work will be completed. Calculated based on performance to date or estimated by the project team based on other factors






36. The right to apply project resources - expend funds - make decisions or give approvals






37. Smaller portion of the overall project created when a project is subdivided by their logical relationship






38. Document containing the results of the qualitative risk analysis - quantitative risk analysis and risk response planning. details all identified risks including description - category - cause - probability of occurring - impact on objectives - propos






39. The process of confirming human resource availability and obtaining team necessary to complete project assignments






40. Reviewing all change requests - approving changes - and managing changes to the deliverables - organizational process assets - project documents and project management plan






41. Implementing risk response plans - tracking identified risks - monitoring residual risks - identifying new risks and evaluating risk process throughout the project






42. Modification that allows an acceleration of the successor activity.






43. Significant point or event in the project
