Software engineering must include the code and regulations that its members must uphold to be judged as a(n):
professional engineering practice.
Entry criteria include a listing and a description of which of the following resources?
Artifacts, People, Tools, and Activity definition
The disadvantage of the waterfall process for software development is:
very little overlapping of the tasks, it is a single iteration, and sequential order of tasks.
Software process models define the:
tasks to be performed, task's input and output, and
task's preconditions and postconditions.
As a software product is developed using RUP, it may go through several iterations during which of the following?
Inception, Elaboration, Construction, and Transition
Which of the following phase has an objective to establish the critical use cases and the major scenarios that will drive the architecture and design?
Inception
Which model has the disadvantages of very little task overlap, a sequential process, and a single iteration?
Waterfall
Which of the following phase has an objective to establish all the major and critical requirements for the system?
Elaboration
The definition of software engineering that points to a multi-person construction of multi-version software is from:
David Parnas
One advantage of the waterfall process is:
it provides a clear way to track the stages of development for the project managers.
Which one of the following is not one of the characteristics of software or software projects that the U.S. General Accounting Office "highlighted"?High customer satisfactionWhich model gave project managers a way to describe the actual status versus "almost complete"?Waterfall modelThe RUP framework is driven by which of the following major concepts?Use-case and requirements, Architecture centric, and Iterative and incrementalProjects take a longer time with poor end products and, in worse situations, total project failure because of inconsistency in the:tasks to be performed and order to perform the tasks.You are working on requirement specification #22 and you define it to be "completed," which means:all specifications have been reviewed by the customers and other stakeholders, all exceptions found during the requirement review are changed, and the modified specifications are accepted by all parties.Which of the following could improve the waterfall model?Develop multiple components, Overlap the development, and Be more evolutionaryRequirement specification can be tested with:hand-drawn screens and a prototype.The distinct tasks to develop software are:requirements, design, code, test, integrate, and packageProgrammers left alone will often think the single most important task in the development of software is:coding.The need to develop multiple components, to overlap the development, and to be more evolutionary leads to the:incremental model and spiral model.Which of the following is one of Davis's early principles for testing?Inspect code. Get it right before you make it faster. High-quality software is possible.
