Software Engineering 5 Flashcards
refers to a flexible software development strategy that focuses on experimentation and quick feedback rather than explicit design
Rapid Application Development
- application development methodology that emphasizes speed and efficiency in creating web applications.
- It typically involves using pre-built, reusable code libraries and frameworks and agile development techniques such as incremental development and prototypinG
Rapid Web Application
Development
Rapid Application Development Steps
- Requirements Planning
- User Design (Prototype, Refine, Test)
- Construction
- Cutover
Why do you use Rapid Application
Development?
best approach to develop prototypes swiftly for testing software functionalities without worrying about any effects on the end product
RAD asks for a broad
requirement
Define the
requirements
are quickly made to
work to showcase just
the key features
Prototype
flesh out a working
system from a working
model
Construction
deploying the built system into a live production environment
Deployment
Benefits of Rapid Application Development
- reduced risks
- cost savings
- increased value generation
- enhanced customer satisfaction
each small iteration is
manageable and can be easily
tested, the risk of any major
issue affecting the entire project
is significantly reduced
Reduced Risks
RAD involves continuous user
feedback, errors and issues
are identified and rectified
early in the development
process.
Cost Savings
RAD allows for the frequent release of
smaller features, which not only keeps
the end-users engaged but also
provides them with immediate value.
Increased Value
Generation
RAD ensures that the final
product meets user
expectations and
requirements.
Enhanced Customer
Satisfaction
When can you use the Rapid Application
Development methodology?
- you have budget
- you need project done quickly
- reliability test on prototype
Where to use the RAD model?
- Clients need to be involved in the development
- The project requires a dynamic approach
- Apps need to be developed quickly
- progress needs to be visible
- user feedback is readily available
- technical risk is not high
