What are the Triple Constraints according to CompTIA

doctafaustus

I'm getting conflicting information from the Sybex box.
As one of the end-chapter questions, it says they're budget, quality, and time:





But on the companion CD, it say's they're scope, time, and quality.



Which one is it???

Neither, actually. The triple constraint refers to:

• Scope: Deliverable of the project
• Time: Schedule of the project
• Cost: Budget of the project

Good luck.
Also, as an additional comment, this comes up from time to time, as different industries do sometimes substitute quality as one of the constraints. If you do some searching for what CompTIA wants, I think you'll find that what I've written above is correct. I passed this exam earlier this year (in Feb), so it was correct at that point.

Agreed

Even though that companion CD is a great tool (IMO) there are still some inconsistencies with the practice test portion.

Ok, thanks for confirming this. I've seen these constraints change 3 times in this book between the flashcards, book questions, and CD tests. That's sort of unacceptable but at least now I know.
