What is the "systems life cycle"?

• A cycle of physical exercises

• A cycle of software updates

• A systematic process for developing and managing systems

• A cycle of project meetings

Which phase of the systems life cycle involves defining the problem or opportunity and identifying the goals of the system?

• Implementation phase

• Design phase

• Requirements analysis phase

• Testing phase

During which phase of the systems life cycle are detailed specifications for the system's components created?

• Requirements analysis phase

• Design phase

• Implementation phase

• Maintenance phase

What is the primary goal of the testing and quality assurance phase in the systems life cycle?

• Developing user documentation

• Identifying potential risks and issues

• Designing the user interface

• Conducting team training sessions

How does the systems life cycle approach address the ongoing evolution of systems after implementation?

• It focuses solely on initial development

• It emphasises minimising maintenance efforts

• It includes stages for maintenance, updates, and eventual replacement

• It excludes user feedback

Which phase of the systems life cycle involves building the actual system based on the design specifications?

• Implementation phase

• Requirements analysis phase

• Testing phase

• Design phase
