Unit 3- Set 3

​Class Coupling

By Carmen Retief-Alharbi

The degree of interdependence between classes in an object-oriented system, indicating how much one class relies on another.

​Traceability

By Carmen Retief-Alharbi

The ability to track and document the relationships between different artifacts throughout the software development lifecycle, ensuring that all requirements are properly addressed and verified.

​Intergration

By Carmen Retief-Alharbi

The process of combining different components or systems to work together as a unified whole.

​Performance Degradation

By Carmen Retief-Alharbi

The decline in a system's efficiency, speed, or responsiveness over time, due to factors like increased load, resource limitations, or software bugs.

​Multitasking

By Carmen Retief-Alharbi

The ability of a system or processor to execute multiple tasks or processes simultaneously or by quickly switching between them, thereby optimizing the system's use.

Multiple Choice

What does Class Coupling describe?

• how fast a class runs a program

• how many variables a class has

• hw much one class depends on another class

• how large a class file is

Multiple Choice

What does traceability help developers do?

• find and fix bugs faster

• track the links between requirements, design and tests

• improve user interface design

• add new features directly

Multiple Choice

Why is traceability important in software development?

• it helps reduce costs

• it ensures that all requirements are met and verified

• it increases CPU performance

• it makes the software run faster

Multiple Choice

What does integration mean in software development?

• writing a new program from scratch

• combining different parts of a system to work together

• testing only one small part of the code

• deleting old files from a system

Multiple Choice

Which of the following can cause performance degradation?

• fewer users using the system

• optimized code

• increased load or software bugs

• updated hardware
