Sample Practice Questions:
Question 1
Succeed Insurance has defined a new user role called Catastrophe Specialist for handling hurricane claims in Florida and Texas. This role requires permission to view claims from any office in the organization during disaster mode but cannot edit any financial transactions on claims assigned to other adjusters, to maintain segregation of duties. The business analyst must document the security requirements for this new role. What should the business analyst specify in the requirements to properly define this role?
A. User interface layout for the Catastrophe Specialist desktop
B. Business actions permitted and access conditions for claim visibility
C. Database queries that the role will execute to find claims
D. Permission name and role code in the security dictionary
Answer: B
Explanation:
A. Incorrect. Specifying the UI layout is a design concern, not a security requirement. The scenario focuses on what the role can do, not how the desktop is arranged.
B. Correct. The business analyst's responsibility is to document what the role is permitted to do and under what conditions. Specifying that the role can view claims from any office but cannot edit financial transactions on others' claims captures the business-level security requirement accurately.
C. Incorrect. Database queries are a technical implementation detail belonging to the developer, not a business requirement the analyst should specify.
D. Incorrect. Permission names and role codes are technical naming conventions determined during implementation. The analyst documents the business behavior, not the technical identifiers.
Domain: Topic 1 - Quality Analyst Basics | Bloom Level: K2 (Understanding) | Scenario Type: Role-based security requirement documentation
Question 2
A business analyst is documenting a requirement that a new dropdown field called Garaging Type, with values of Owned Garage, Street Parking, and Commercial Lot, be added to the Vehicle Details screen. The field must be mandatory for personal auto policies in urban zip codes. Which two story card tabs are most appropriate for capturing this requirement? (Choose TWO)
A. Rules tab to document conditional mandatory logic based on zip code and policy type
B. Financials tab to associate the field with reserve calculations
C. UI Fields tab to define the field's screen position and mandatory behavior
D. Typelist tab to list the allowed values for the dropdown field
Answer: C and D
Explanation:
A. Incorrect. The Rules tab documents processing rules such as assignment and validation rules, not UI field definitions. The conditional mandatory logic is a separate concern from documenting the field itself.
B. Incorrect. The Financials tab covers reserve and payment configurations. It has no role in documenting a UI dropdown field on the Vehicle Details screen.
C. Correct. The UI Fields tab defines the field's screen position, data type, and mandatory behavior, which are essential for implementing the dropdown on the correct screen.
D. Correct. The Typelist tab lists the allowed values for the dropdown field, in this case Owned Garage, Street Parking, and Commercial Lot, providing the value set developers need to implement the field correctly.
Domain: Topic 1 - Quality Analyst Basics | Bloom Level: K2 (Understanding) | Scenario Type: UI requirements documentation using story card methodology
Question 3
An insurer processes 10,000 checks weekly through an external check-printing vendor. The vendor requires a unique trace ID per check that ClaimCenter does not generate or store. The insurer needs to look up claims by trace ID for reconciliation. Voided checks must retain their original trace ID. How should the business analyst document this requirement?
A. Vendor requirement only, as ClaimCenter does not need to retain the trace ID after transmission
B. Integration requirement that ClaimCenter generate and store the trace ID before transmission with void retention
C. Both a data requirement and an integration requirement, as the trace ID must be generated, stored, transmitted, and retained through the void lifecycle
D. Data requirement only, for a new field on the Payment entity to store the trace ID with void handling logic
Answer: C
Explanation:
A. Incorrect. Passing all responsibility to the vendor ignores the insurer's own need to retain the trace ID for internal lookup and reconciliation.
B. Incorrect. An integration requirement alone is insufficient. Without a data requirement to store the trace ID on the Payment entity, the insurer cannot later retrieve claims by trace ID.
C. Correct. Both a data requirement and an integration requirement are needed. The trace ID must be generated and stored (data requirement), transmitted to the vendor (integration requirement), and retained through the void lifecycle. This is the only option that fully addresses generation, storage, transmission, and void retention.
D. Incorrect. A data requirement alone does not ensure the trace ID is generated by ClaimCenter and transmitted to the vendor. Both aspects must be documented.

Target a consistent score above 80% across all domain areas before scheduling your real exam.

Baseline (Test 1): Any score is acceptable. Focus on identifying gaps.
Mid-preparation (Tests 2-3): Target 65-75%. Progress indicates growing readiness.
