Are you ready to take the TOGAF 9.2 Foundation exam? One of the best ways to prepare is by practicing with realistic questions that mimic the style, difficulty, and syllabus weighting of the actual exam.
Remember: For the Foundation level, you need to answer 11 out of 20 questions correctly (55%) in this practice set to stay on track for the real 60% passing mark. This is a closed-book exam, so try to answer these without looking at the manual!

1. Which of the following describes the 'Enterprise Continuum' in TOGAF?
2. In the TOGAF ADM, which phase is responsible for creating the Architecture Vision and obtaining approval to proceed?
3. What is the primary purpose of the Preliminary Phase in the ADM?
4. Which ADM phase is focused on defining the Technical Architecture?
5. What does the term 'SMART' refer to in the context of Architecture Principles?
6. Which document is the primary output of the Preliminary Phase?
Section 2: Artifacts, Building Blocks & Techniques
7. Which of the following is an example of an 'Architecture Building Block' (ABB)?
8. What is the primary purpose of a 'Gap Analysis' in the ADM?
9. Which part of the TOGAF standard describes the 'objects that can be stored in the Architecture Repository'?
