Self-Test 2

Question 1

Which of the statements below are true in regards to the Waterfall develoment processes?

Answer 1

• The idea with the waterfall model is that you have clear control points between each phase.
• All testing happens at the end of the process.
  *In a project with a firm release date, there is a high risk that you will not finish all the tests you have planned in this model because it is hard to determine the quality of the software without testing.

Question 2

Which of the following are advantages with Testing in an Agile Development?

Answer 2

*An advantage with agile developmentproject is that you avoid some administration, since it is possible to fix some problems directly when they happen.
*All in the agile project are responsible for quality and that the test cases are written and executed
