Quiz on Effective Change Management in Software Development

What is change management in the context of new computer systems?

• A process to manage resistance to change

• A strategy to improve user interface design

• A technique to reduce hardware costs

• A method to increase system speed

Which of the following is an advantage of parallel running?

• Immediate cost savings

• Allows comparison of old and new systems

• Requires less time for implementation

• Eliminates the need for user training

What is a common problem during data migration?

• Enhanced user interface

• Reduced hardware costs

• Data loss or corruption

• Increased system speed

Why is user acceptance testing important?

• It speeds up the implementation process

• It reduces the cost of hardware

• It ensures the system meets user requirements

• It eliminates the need for debugging

What is debugging?

• A technique to reduce hardware costs

• A strategy to improve user interface design

• A process to identify and fix errors

• A method to increase system speed

How does beta testing differ from user acceptance testing?

• Beta testing is done by developers only

• Beta testing involves a select group of users

• Beta testing is more expensive

• Beta testing eliminates the need for debugging

What is the main difference between parallel running and pilot running?

• Pilot running eliminates the need for user training

• Parallel running is less expensive

• Pilot running tests the system in a small area first

• Parallel running involves a full-scale implementation

What should organizations consider when choosing between client hardware and remote hosting?

• The brand of the hosting provider

• Budget, security, scalability, and customization needs

• The color of the hardware

• The location of the organization

How can compatibility issues be addressed in legacy systems?

• By reducing system speed

• By increasing hardware costs

• By planning and managing implementation carefully

• By ignoring the old systems

What is the role of testing in new computer system implementation?

• To ensure systems function as intended

• To increase hardware costs

• To reduce system speed

• To eliminate the need for user training
