Exam 1: The Systems Development Environment

The Agile Methodologies promote a self-reflective software development process.

The transition phase of RUP involves only coding of the project.

Which of the following programming languages could be used for OOAD?

The systems development environment in the late 1990s focused on systems integration.

The traditional waterfall life cycle locked users into __________ that had been previously determined.

During which of the following RUP phases will analysts define the scope,determine the feasibility of the project,understand user requirements,and prepare a software development plan?

Match each of the following terms with its corresponding definition. -Systems development methodologies and techniques based on objects rather than data or processes.

__________ is the part of the design phase of the SDLC in which all functional features of the system chosen for development in analysis are described independently of any computer platform.

Computer display and report generators help prototype how systems __________ and __________.

__________ refers to systems development methodologies and techniques based on objects rather than data or processes.

Match each of the following RUP phases with its corresponding definition. -During this phase,analysts detail user requirements and develop a baseline architecture.

Computer software designed to support organizational functions or processes best defines:

RAD depends on extensive __________ involvement.

During the __________ phase of RUP,the software is actually coded,tested,and documented.

Match each of the following phases with its corresponding products,outputs,or deliverables.(Answers may occur more than once.) -Code,documentation,training procedures,and support capabilities.

Match each of the following RUP phases with its corresponding definition. -During this phase,the software is actually coded,tested,and documented.

__________ is the organizational role most responsible for the analysis and design of information systems.

Proponents of the Agile Methodology state that techniques that work well for stable projects,such as building a bridge,work well for software projects.

Techniques are comprehensive,multiple-step approaches to systems development that guide an analyst's work and influence the quality of the final product.

The goal of OOAD is to make system elements more reusable.
