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. Analytical technique to determine the essential features and relationships of components in the project management plan to establish a reserve for the schedule duration - budget - estimated cost or funds for a project






2. Document that graphically depicts the project team members and their interrelationships for a specific project






3. Assurance that a product - service or system meets the needs of the customer and other identified stakeholders






4. Judgment provided based upon expertise in an application area - knowledge area - discipline - industry - etc. as appropriate for the activity being performed.






5. Collection of schedule activity dependencies that makes up a project schedule network diagram






6. Approximating the number of work periods needed to complete individual activities with estimated resources






7. Learning gained from the process of performing the project






8. Features and functions that characterize a product - service or result






9. 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






10. Common way to determine whether a risk is considered low - moderate - or high by combining the two dimensions of a risk: its probability of occurrence and its impact on objectives if it occurs






11. Calendar of working days or shifts that establishes those dates on which schedule activities are worked and nonworking days that determine those dates on which schedule activities are idle






12. Processes and activities of the performing organization that determine quality policies - objectives and responsibilities so that the project will satisfy the needs for which it was undertaken






13. 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






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






15. Developing a detailed description of the project and product






16. Technique for estimating that applies a weighted average of optimistic - pessimistic and most likely estimates when there is uncertainty with the individual activity estimates






17. A specific technique for measuring the performance of work and used to establish the performance measurement baseline






18. Defined function to be performed by a project team member






19. Schedule network diagramming technique in which schedule activities are represented by boxes or nodes. schedule activities are graphically linked by one or more logical relationships to show the sequence in which the activities are performed






20. A product - result or service generated by a process






21. 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






22. Collecting and distributing performance information - including status reports - progress measurements and forecasts






23. Members of the project team who are directly involved in project management activities






24. Float (total float - free float)






25. Documents and data on prior project including project files - records - correspondence - closed contracts - and closed projects






26. Method of resolving the total variance in the set of scope - cost - and schedule variables into specific component variances that are associated with defined factors affecting scope - cost and schedule variables






27. Risk response planning technique associated with threats that seeks to reduce the probability of occurrence or impact of a risk to below an acceptable threshold






28. The smallest unit of time used in scheduling a project. calendar units are generally in hours - days - or weeks - but can also be in quarters years - months - shifts - or even minutes






29. Identifying the specific actions to be performed to produce the project deliverables






30. 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






31. Total number of work periods required to complete a schedule activity or work breakdown structure component.






32. 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.






33. Auditing the quality requirements and the results from quality control measurements to ensure appropriate quality standards and operational definitions are used






34. A component of work performed during the course of a project






35. A point in time associated with schedule activity's completion.






36. The merging or joining of parallel schedule network paths into the same node in a project schedule network diagram. characterized by a schedule activity with more than one predecessor activity






37. Any numbering system used to uniquely identify each component of the work breakdown structure






38. The process of finalizing all activities across all of the project management process groups to formally complete the project or phase






39. Group of persons with a shared objective who fulfill their roles with little or no time spent meeting fact to face.






40. Process of numerically analyzing the effect of identified risks on overall project objectives






41. Process which generates hundreds or thousands of probable performance outcomes based on probability distributions for cost and schedule on individual tasks. the outcomes are used to generate a probability distribution for a project as a whole.






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






43. Quantifiable deviation - departure or divergence away from a known baseline or expected value






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






45. Performing the work defined in the project management plan to achieve the project's objectives






46. Those processes performed to complete the work defined in the project management plan to satisfy project objectives






47. Slack - Total amount of time that a schedule activity maybe delayed from its early start date without delaying the project finish date or violating a schedule constraint.






48. Something toward which work is to be directed - a strategic position to be attained - or a purpose to be achieved - a result to be obtained - a product to produced or a service to be performed






49. Graphic display of cumulative costs - labor - hours - percentage of work or other quantities - plotted against time. used to depict planned value - earned value and active costs.






50. Aggregating the estimated costs of individual activities or work packages to establish an authorized cost baseline
