TOGAF Techniques

Which of the following is true about Phase A with respect to TOGAF techniques?

• TOGAF recommends doing a Business Scenario in Phase A
• The TOGAF Gap Analysis technique begins in Phase A because that is where the Interoperability Requirements technique begins
• The Stakeholder Management technique for an ADM Cycle begins in the Preliminary Phase rather than Phase A
• Requirements Management is one of the most important TOGAF techniques for Phase A

Which of the following is true about TOGAF techniques?

• Stakeholder Satisfaction is one of the most important techniques
• The Analysis of Alternatives technique in Phase E is one of the most important TOGAF techniques to select SBBs
• There is a direct relationship between the Standards Information Base (SIB) and TOGAF techniques in TOGAF's Architecture Repository
• The Gap Analysis technique helps identify items unintentionally eliminated from the planning

Which of the following best describes the value of Capability-Based Planning ?

• A better way to do strategic planning
• An emphasis on the value of technology
• A better way to do Stakeholder Management
• Better traceability to business drivers and goals

Architecture Patterns are important to EA/TOGAF for the following reason:

• They can help define how to use a combination of building blocks in a re-usable way to solve a common problem in the enterprise context
• By knowing them, you also know Anti-Patterns
• They only involve Architecture Building Blocks
• They don't include standards

Which of the following is true about Business Scenarios?

• They should be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Actionable, Realistic, and Time-Bound)
• They are required to define high-level requirements for Phase A
• They are only intended for the EA/IT experts to help prepare to talk with the business and vendors
• They should not use graphics because these could be mis-interpreted

Analyzing the impact of change is an important task for Phase H. Which of the following is true regarding this task?

• It is called the Change Assessment Technique
• It is an approach that can lead to a Change Request and/or a Request for Architecture Work
• It must be approved by Implementation Governance
• It requires the use of a Business Scenario

The Business Transformation Readiness Assessment helps architects using TOGAF in the following way:

• It helps build an Actor/Role Catalog
• It helps identify risks
• It helps clarify architecture principles
• It directly helps to complete the Architecture Definition Document

The technique for Interoperability Requirements is used for the following:

• To identify gaps between interoperability from ADM Phases A-F
• Requires the use of a matrix
• Directly leads to an updated risk management log
• Depends on the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment

Which of the following is true regarding the TOGAF Architecture Principles technique?

• If the new direction is unfunded, this would be noted in the Rationale part of the principle
• The "CRUCS" of a good set of Architecture Principles includes the term  "Complexity"
• Business rules should be added in Phase A as part of the elaboration of Architecture Principles established in the Preliminary Phase
• TOGAF's notional set of 21 principles are organized by the Business, Data, Application, and Technology domains

Which of the following is a TOGAF Technique?

• Connecting the Dots (CTD)
• Business Transformation Readiness Assessment
• Risk Aversion Iterations
• ABBs and SBBs
