Exam 5: Systems Analysis

In the scope definition phase, visibility is used to assess the degree to which a project solution is made visual through the use of modeling tools such as data flow diagrams or entity relationship diagrams.

The context for the scope definition phase is primarily concerned with the _______________ perspectives.

The decision analysis phase identifies candidate solutions, analyzes those candidate solutions, and recommends a target system that will be designed, constructed, and implemented.

A problem statements matrix lists each problem, opportunity, or directive related to the project.

Scope defies the boundary of the project.

Schedule feasibility asks the following question(s):

Which of the following is a model-driven, data-centered, but process-sensitive technique to plan, analyze and design information systems?

The purpose of a context diagram is to analyze how the system interacts with the world around it.

_______________________________________ is a model-driven technique that integrates data and process concerns.

_____________________ involve the integration of various approaches of systems analysis and design as deemed appropriate to the problem being solved.

___________________________ and ____________________________ are examples of traditional approaches to systems analysis.

When using timeboxing the first version of the system to be delivered returns little immediate value to the user.

The requirements analysis phase comes directly after the scope definition phase and is used to specify the model for the existing system, as well as the business requirements for the new system.

Test cases (or acceptance tests) used to test the completed system should be planned during the logical design phase.

A _____________ is a business scenario or event for which the system must provide a define response.

Use cases evolved out of object-oriented analysis but have become common in many other methodologies.

The _________________________________________looks at the question "Is this project work looking at?"

Information systems analysis is defined as those development phases in a project that primarily focus on the business problem, independent of any technology that can or will be used to implement a solution to that problem.

Joint requirements planning (JRP) is considered a part of ____ which is a more comprehensive application of the techniques to the entire system development process.

__________________________________ is used to identify the user's business requirements by having them react to a quick and dirty implementation of those requirements.
