Software Engineering Basics

What is the waterfall model?

• The waterfall model is a type of dance move.

• The waterfall model is a sequential design process.

• The waterfall model is a type of irrigation system.

• The waterfall model is a type of hairstyle.

List the phases of the waterfall model.

• Design, Development, Testing, Deployment, Support

• Requirements gathering and analysis, System design, Implementation, Testing, Deployment, Maintenance

• Analysis, Design, Coding, Testing, Maintenance

• Planning, Execution, Monitoring, Controlling, Closing

What are the advantages of the waterfall model?

• Clear project phases, well-defined requirements, easy to manage and understand

• No need for extensive documentation

• Flexible to changes

• Continuous feedback loop

What are the disadvantages of the waterfall model?

• Accurate time and cost estimation

• Lack of flexibility, difficulty in estimating time and cost accurately, high risk of project failure, limited customer involvement

• Low risk of project failure

• Easy to manage

What is software testing?

• Software testing is the process of writing code for a software application.

• Software testing is the process of marketing a software application.

• Software testing is the process of evaluating a software application to identify any discrepancies between expected and actual results.

• Software testing is the process of designing user interfaces for a software application.

Explain the difference between white-box testing and black-box testing.

• White-box testing is manual testing, while black-box testing is automated.

• White-box testing looks at the internal logic of the code, while black-box testing looks at the functionality of the software.

• White-box testing is only applicable to web applications, while black-box testing is used for desktop applications.

• White-box testing focuses on the external behavior of the software, while black-box testing focuses on the internal code structure.

What is unit testing?

• Unit testing is a technique to test the entire software system at once

• Unit testing is a software testing technique where individual units or components of a software are tested in isolation to ensure they work correctly.

• Unit testing is not necessary in software development

• Unit testing is only applicable to hardware testing

What is integration testing?

• Integration testing is not necessary in software development

• Integration testing is a method to test individual units separately

• Integration testing is a software testing method where individual units are combined and tested as a group to ensure they work together correctly.

• Integration testing is only done after deployment

What is system testing?

• System testing is a level of software testing where testing is done without any test cases.

• System testing is a level of software testing where individual modules are tested in isolation.

• System testing is a level of software testing where only the user interface is tested.

• System testing is a level of software testing where a complete and integrated software is tested to evaluate the system's compliance with specified requirements.

What is acceptance testing?

• Acceptance testing is the process of evaluating a system's security measures.

• Acceptance testing is the process of evaluating a system's compliance with business requirements and determining if it is ready for release.

• Acceptance testing is the process of evaluating a system's performance.

• Acceptance testing is the process of evaluating a system's compliance with technical requirements.
