What is a walkthrough?
Ans. A walkthrough is a peer-review of a product. They can be used to verify and validate the models developed during analysis. Members of the walkthrough come from the client, the analysis team, and the design team. A presenter "walks" the team through the models. The team members are free to ask questions. The goal is identify errors. A scribe or recorder makes notes of the errors and problems identified by the team so these can fixed later. The team does not fix the problems, they are here to find problem spot only. To ensure reusability of the models that were developed, a special person called the "maintenance oracle" asks questions regarding maintenance of the models. The analysis team will correct the errors before handing the project over to the design team. Response: See page 273-274
