Exam Questions and CORRECT Answers
SDLC (Systems Development Life Cycle) - CORRECT ANSWER - The overall process
for developing information systems.
SDLC Phases - CORRECT ANSWER - 1. Planning
2. Analysis
3. Design
4. Implementation
Deliverables - CORRECT ANSWER - 1. project plan
2. System Proposal
3. System Specification
4. New system and maintenance plan
System Development Methodology - CORRECT ANSWER - Formalized approach to
implementing the SDLC
Methodology Categories - CORRECT ANSWER - 1. Structured Design
2. Rapid Application Development (RAD)
3. Agile Development
structured design - CORRECT ANSWER - the design process of organizing a program
into a set of modules and organizing those modules into a hierarchical structure
(Waterfall & Parallel)
, Rapid Application Development (RAD) - CORRECT ANSWER - A development method
that uses special tools and an iterative approach to rapidly produce a high-quality system.
(Phased, Prototyping, & Throwaway Prototyping)
Agile Development - CORRECT ANSWER - a guiding philosophy and set of guidelines
for developing information systems in an unknown, rapidly changing environment
(eXtreme Programming)
Waterfall Development - CORRECT ANSWER - Development method that focuses on
completing each stage of the SDLC for the entire project before moving onto the next.
Parallel Development Methodology - CORRECT ANSWER - -Subdivide the project into
subprojects that can be worked on at the same time.
-Reduce the overall project length
Phased Development - CORRECT ANSWER - breaks an overall system into a series of
versions that are developed sequentially
System Prototyping - CORRECT ANSWER - performs the analysis, design, and
implementation phases concurrently in order to quickly develop a simplified version of the
proposed system and give it to the users for evaluation and feedback.
Throwaway Prototyping - CORRECT ANSWER - Prototyping of user requirements, after
which the prototype is discarded and implementation continues.
Extreme Programming - CORRECT ANSWER -
Object Oriented Analysis & Design - CORRECT ANSWER - Uses UML
