Q

The 5 quality of customer preferences

A

Must be quality, One dimensional, Attractive, Indifferent, reverse

30
Q

The Kano quadrants

A

Delighters, satisfiers. Dissatisfiers, Indifferent

31
Q

Dot voting risks

A

cant consider new features, too many features should be limited, similar options are penalized, group think

32
Q

This prioritization approach is best for business features

A

Monopoly money

33
Q

Relative prioritization

A

priority features, simple first, meet budget and schedule, changes may change list (priorities and some may be removed)

34
Q

While a sprint is in flight can the priority change

A

No, new priorities can be added to backlog. PO can choose to cancel sprint if there was something tectonic

35
Q

Incremental delivery requires

A

Regression testing

36
Q

What is regression testing?

A

testing new feature and all previous

37
Q

Cons of incremental delivery

A

Cost may exceed value, new functionality may reveal problems

38
Q

Cost of change

A

Change is least expensive at the beginning, change increases as functionality increases. Change is expected but expensive

39
Q

MVP

A

Minimal viable product

40
Q

examples of low touch high tech tools

A

task board, burndown,

41
Q

Gulf of evaluation

A

difference between what was said and what was understood

42
Q

Examples of verification and validation

A

pair programming, unit testing, customer collab, stand-ups, acceptance testing, iteration demos, product release

43
Q

Types of testing

A

Exploratorily, scripted, usability,TDD

44
Q

UAT testing

A

how easy is it to use

45
Q

exploratory testing

A

discover issues and unexpected behavior

46
Q

Continuous integration

A

small frequent code commits, with tools to integrate new code when checked in

47
Q

A continuous int system is made up of

A

source code control, build tools, test tools, scheduler or trigger, notifications

48
Q

Benefits of cont int?

A

early warning if code breaks something, problems fixed as they occur, immediate feedback, frequent unit testing defines issues, easy to reverse

49
Q

Cons of cont int

A

setup time, cost, setup of integration suite

50
Q

Define TDD

A

Test driven development, test are written before code, code is written and developed and tested until the test passes. Then code is refactored

51
Q

Who should write tests in tdd

A

not the dev

52
Q

Phases of tdd

A

red, green, refactor or clean

53
Q

phases of acceptance test driven development

A

discuss requirements, distill test in a framework, dev and run tests, demo with automated test scripts

54
Q

WIP

A

work in progress

55
Q

Characteristics of WIP

A

Risk, hides bottlenecks, requires investment, delivers no return, needs to be limited

56
Q

WIP should be limited to offset

A

Risk and reveal bottlenecks

57
Q

What is littles law

A

duration of q is proportional to its size.

58
Q

RFP

A

request for proposal

59
Q

Agile projects constrain what?

A

time and cost

60
Q

Agile is flexible on?

A

Scope

61
Q

What is DSDM

A

Dynamic systems development

62
Q

What is RAD

A

Rapid application development

63
Q

DSDM characteristics

A

The benefits of RAD - communication, stakeholder engagement and transparency, along with waterfall - control and quality

64
Q

Characteristics of graduated fixed price contract

A

both parties share risk, vendor is paid hourly rate to deliver on time, paid above rate is early and below rate is lat

65
Q

Benefits of a fixed price contract

A

no sandbagging, celebrate success, initiate work effectively, focus on results not hourly rate

66
Q

Fixed price work packages

A

estimated for cost, price of work is constant, scope changes will require a new estimate

67
Q

Unit testing

A

smallest testable portion of application code, module, function, procedure, code fragments

68
Q

Acceptance testing

A

Test to determine acceptability of requirement, spec

69

A

on the fly, how a user may use it, spontaneous, not scripted

70
Q

Usability testing
