Study Notes
Choosing the Right Approach
- Organizations should tailor their project management approach based on project needs and environment, by combining plan-driven and agile practices.
- This approach allows for leveraging the strengths of both methodologies to achieve successful outcomes.
Component Selection and Design
- The component selection and design stage involves identifying reusable components for a project.
- If reusable components are unavailable, the design process involves creating new components to meet project requirements.
Reusable Component Example
- Utilizing a third-party payment processing API (e.g., Stripe) can streamline payment handling in a project.
Testing Phases in a Plan-Driven Software Process
- The V-model is a common example of testing phases in a plan-driven software process.
Software Evolution
- Software is inherently flexible and adaptable to changes.
- As business requirements evolve, the software supporting those requirements should also adapt and change.
- This makes maintenance a crucial component of the software lifecycle.
Coping With Change
- Change is an unavoidable aspect of large-scale software projects.
