17 Questions
What is the main characteristic of the Waterfall model?
Late changes to requirements or design are limited
In which scenario would the Waterfall model be most suitable?
When requirements and implementations are clearly understood at the project's start
What distinguishes the Prototype Model from the Waterfall model?
Development of a basic working model early in the project
Which type of prototype shows human-machine interaction to understand the level of interaction in the desired software?
Paper prototype or PC-based prototype
What is a key feature of the Spiral model in software development?
Progressive implementation of risk analysis and mitigation
What is a key characteristic of the Spiral Model in terms of risk management?
Risk analysis and mitigation
Which software development model combines elements of both iterative development and prototyping?
Prototype Model
Which software development model allows for changes and adjustments at each spiral based on feedback and evolving requirements?
Spiral Model
In the Spiral Model, what is often used in the early spirals to gather user feedback and validate design decisions?
Prototyping
Which software development model divides the development process into multiple iterations or spirals, each focusing on different aspects such as planning and evaluation?
Spiral Model
Which development model is most suitable when the project size is large and customers expect all features at the first delivery?

What key benefit of the Spiral Model involves adding new features and functionality to the evolving system in each spiral?
Incremental Development
In which scenario would the Incremental model be preferable over the Waterfall model?
When expecting additional funds and resources
What factor influences the choice between the Spiral model and the Waterfall model?
Risks and impacts in the project are high
When would the RAD model face resistance from stakeholders and team members?
