What is your knowledge on how these Audits will happen for a BA?
• Leveraging data visualization tools in the planning, execution and reporting phases to drive
• efficiencies and effectiveness
• Participating in planning activities to develop audit scopes
• Designing audit programs and test plans to determine the adequacy and effectiveness of
internal
• controls and compliance
• Interviewing select personnel and documenting and assessing business processes and
• information systems to determine the adequacy of the control environment
• Testing information technology application and system processes and controls
• Understanding financial, operational and compliance risks which impact information systems
• Identifying value-added recommendations and aligning with management on corrective
actions
• to address identified risks
• Presenting audit results to management
• Preparing audit reports detailing recommendations to strengthen and improve the control
• environment
• Maintaining work papers and participate in department projects
• Provide advice and training to IT application owners on implementation of Computer and
• Interface controls • Perform design effectiveness testing (DET) and detailed operational
• effectiveness testing (OET) of IT controls.
• Perform Quality Assurance Reviews of control documentation and testing
• Perform risk analysis for control matters/issues identified during testing
2 – BA Approach Strategy
In Brainstorming elicitation technique where a problem or topic is presented to the group, and
participants are asked to produce as many ideas to solve/address the topic as possible. As ideas are
presented, a scribe documents the ideas and ensures the participants can see what is being captured.

10. CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Project sign-off is typically executed during the contract closure phase – the company presents
the results of the work done to the client and then, after getting the necessary acceptance from
them, should get a client statement to verify that the job was completed.
How to update the progress of the project to the Stakeholders, how t o take signoff on the
UATClient
Project Acceptance Form)
User Acceptance Testing (UAT) is a type of testing performed by the end user or the client to
verify/accept the software system before moving the software application to the production
environment. UAT is done in the final phase of testing after functional, integration and system
testing is done. Deliverables for UAT testing are Test Plan, UAT Scenarios and Test Cases, Test
Results and Defect Log.
Once execution is over, and as many defects as possible are resolved, it is time to sign off on UAT
and go live.
The sign-off approval indicates that the change meets business requirements and is ready for
deployment.
Business Analysts or UAT Testers needs to send a sign off mail after the UAT testing. After sign off
from client.
• Each tier (Presentation, Logic, Data) should be independent and should not expose
dependencies related to the implementation.
• Presentation tier (front end) – The top most level of the application is the User interface (UI).
• The main function of the interface is to translate task and result to something that user can
understand -
• Logic Tier – This layer coordinates the application process commands, makes logical decisions
and evaluations and perform calculations. It also moves and processes data between to 2
surrounding layer. A dynamic content processing and generation level application server, e.g.,
Java EE, ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion platform (middleware).
• Data Tier (Back end) – Here information is stored and retrieved from database or file system.
The information is passed back to the logic tier for processing and eventually back to the user.

.Question 6 – This project Elicitation Techniques
Which Elicitation Techniques can be used in this Project and Justify your selection of Elicitation
Techniques? Prototyping / Use case Specs/ Document Analysis / Brainstorming.
I would be using Workshop and will invite all stakeholder and will set up agenda ; discussion ; req
gathering ; client expectation and out .
I would be using use case specs as it helps for early designs, mock-ups, prototypes with real users. User
testing helps us to find out if the potential design will be usable.
