What is the purpose of a retrospective in Agile?
To assign blame for past mistakes and failures.
To reflect on the team's performance and identify improvements for future iterations.
To celebrate the team's successes without any critique.
To plan the next sprint without any feedback from the team.
Describe the Waterfall model in the Software Development Life Cycle.
The Waterfall model emphasizes continuous integration and delivery throughout the process.
The Waterfall model is a linear and sequential software development process consisting of distinct phases: Requirements, Design, Implementation, Testing, Deployment, and Maintenance.
The Waterfall model is an agile software development approach with iterative cycles.
The Waterfall model consists of overlapping phases that allow for frequent revisions.
What are the phases of the Software Development Life Cycle?
Concept, Development, Evaluation, Support
Planning, Requirements Analysis, Design, Implementation, Testing, Deployment, Maintenance

How does Agile differ from traditional project management?
Agile is iterative and flexible, while traditional project management is linear and fixed.
Agile requires a fixed timeline for project completion.
Agile is always more expensive than traditional project management.
Traditional project management is more focused on customer collaboration than Agile.
What is a user story in Agile development?
A user story is a comprehensive user manual for software.
A user story is a detailed technical specification for developers.
A user story is a project timeline for Agile teams.
A user story is a brief description of a feature from the end user's perspective.
What is the significance of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP)?
The MVP is a comprehensive feature set for all users.
The MVP helps validate product ideas quickly and cost-effectively.
The MVP eliminates the need for user feedback.
The MVP is a final product ready for launch.
Define the term 'iteration' in the context of Agile.

Explain the concept of continuous integration.
Continuous integration involves only manual code reviews before merging changes.
Continuous integration is a method of deploying code directly to production without testing.
Continuous integration is the practice of writing code in isolation without sharing it with others.
Continuous integration is a practice of merging code changes frequently into a shared repository, followed by automated testing to ensure code quality.
What are the advantages of using Agile methodology?
Reduced team communication
Slower project timelines
Increased bureaucracy
The advantages of using Agile methodology include flexibility, improved collaboration, faster delivery, enhanced customer satisfaction, and continuous improvement.
How do you measure the success of a software project?
Success is measured by the number of bugs reported after launch.
Success is determined by the number of features implemented.
Success can be measured by meeting project goals, user satisfaction, and adherence to budget and timeline.
Success is based solely on the technology stack used.
