What metrics a project has to monitor to validate the estimated effort?
-
Schedule Variance
-
Productivity
-
Effort Variance
-
Both B and C
Correct Answer
A. Effort VarianceExplanation
Effort Variance is a metric that measures the difference between the estimated effort and the actual effort spent on a project. By monitoring this metric, project managers can validate the accuracy of their initial effort estimates. If the effort variance is high, it indicates that the estimated effort was significantly different from the actual effort, highlighting the need for adjustments in future estimations. Therefore, Effort Variance is an important metric to monitor in order to validate the estimated effort of a project.Rate this question:

WBRT is a means to ...
-
Record the defects found during Walkthrough review.
-
Record the defects found during Offline review.
-
Both A and B.
-
None of these.
Correct Answer
A. Both A and B.Explanation
The correct answer is "Both A and B." WBRT, which stands for "Walkthrough Based Review Technique," is a method used to record the defects found during both Walkthrough and Offline reviews. Walkthrough review involves a group of people reviewing a document or code together, while Offline review allows individuals to review the material independently. Both methods aim to identify and document any defects or issues that need to be addressed. Therefore, the correct answer is that WBRT can be used to record defects found during both types of reviews.Rate this question:

-
Planning > Review > Rework
-
Planning > Walkthrough > Rework
-
Planning > Review > Follow-up
Correct Answer
A. Planning > Review > Follow-upExplanation
The correct answer is Planning > Review > Follow-up. During an offline review, the first step is planning, where the objectives and scope of the review are defined. The next step is the review itself, where the review team examines the work product and identifies any issues or areas for improvement. Finally, there is the follow-up, where the findings from the review are communicated, and any necessary actions are taken to address the identified issues. This sequence ensures that the review process is organized and effective.Rate this question:
