PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
What is the purpose of the Quality Review technique?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse the Quality Review technique with quality planning (Option A) or with user acceptance testing (Option C), as candidates often misattribute the technique's purpose to broader quality management activities rather than its specific role as a structured product review against quality criteria.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
To assess whether the product is fit for purpose by reviewing it against its quality criteria.
The Quality Review technique in PRINCE2 is a structured assessment of a product against its predefined quality criteria, ensuring it is fit for purpose before formal approval. Option B correctly identifies this as the technique's primary purpose: to review the product against its quality criteria, not to plan or test broadly.
