Test your knowledge on the Build & Fix process model taught by Prof. Zhao Han at the University of South Florida for the Software Engineering course in Spring 2024. Learn about the incremental Scrum, synchronization, stabilization, commonalities analysis, design, and delivery aspects throughout the process. Explore the relatively flexible approach and its usage.
