1. A waterfall model is also known as ____.

a).Prototype model

b).Linear sequential model

c).Iterative Model

d).None of the mentioned above

Answer: B) Linear sequential model

Explanation:

A waterfall model is also known as linear sequential model. This model gives a systematic, sequential
approach to system development that begins at a systematic level and progresses through
communication, planning, analysis, modeling, testing, deployment and maintenance.

a).Spiral model

b).Prototype model

c).Waterfall model

d).Iterative model

Answer: C) Waterfall model

Explanation:

Waterfall model is the oldest model of system development. The Waterfall Model was the first process
model to be introduced.

5. With reference to waterfall model, each phase must be completed before the ___ can begin and there
is no overlapping in the phases.

a).Previous phase

b).Next phase

c).Both A and B

d).None of the mentioned above

Answer: B) Next phase

Explanation:

With reference to waterfall model, each phase must be completed before the next phase can begin and
there is no overlapping in the phases.

6. The Waterfall model approach for the system development divides the whole process of system
development into separate phases.

A).True

B)False

Answer: A) True

Explanation:

The Waterfall model approach for the system development divides the whole process of system
development into separate phases.
7. Problem identification is the ___ and initial phase of the waterfall model.

A)First

B)Second

C)Third

D)Fourth

Answer: A) First

Explanation:

Problem identification is the first and initial phase of the waterfall model. This phase is used to identify
the problem.

8. In the requirement analysis phase, the experts gather ___ and thinks about the solution of a problem.

A)Analysis

B)Requirement

C)Both A and B

D)None of the mentioned above

Answer: B) Requirement

Explanation:

In the requirement analysis phase, the experts gather requirement and thinks about the solution of a
problem.

9. System design is a ___ of the solution. The process follows the steps i.e. first creates logical design and
physical design.

A)Fundamental

B)Blueprint

C)Process

D)Maintenance

Answer: A) Fundamental

Explanation:

System design is a blueprint of the solution. The process follows the steps i.e., first creates logical design
and physical design.

10. With reference to waterfall model, implementation shows the final ___ of the system.

A)Enhancement

B)Development

C)Integration

D)All of the mentioned above

Answer: C) Integration

Explanation:

Implementation shows the final integration of the system. In this phase, all the developed components
are integrated with one another in a proper manner so that system can fulfill all the objectives for which
it has designed.

11. Testing is a process to ___ the objective of the system through various steps. It is a mechanism that
makes sure that the system is working properly or not.

A)Development

B)Validate

C)Enhancement

D)Verification

Answer: B) Validate

Explanation:

Testing is a process to validate the objective of the system through various steps. It is a mechanism that
makes sure that the system is working properly or not.

12. ____ begins after successful testing of the developed system.

A)System Design

B)Requirement Analysis

C)Deployment

D)None of the mentioned above

Answer: C) Deployment
Explanation:

Deployment begins after successful testing of the developed system; it is deployed to an individual
company for which it has designed.

13. After a successful deployment of the system at customers end, it is compulsory to ___ it from time to
time, so that system can successfully run to a long period.

A)Testing

B)Maintain

C)Development

D)Design

Answer: B) Maintain

Explanation:

After a successful deployment of the system at customers end, it is compulsory to maintain it from time
to time, so that system can successfully run to a long period.

14. The waterfall model is the most suitable model when the ___ are crystal clear and don't change
frequently.

A)Testing

B)Analysis

C)Requirements

D)None of the mentioned above

Answer: C) Requirements

Explanation:

The waterfall model is the most suitable model when the requirements are crystal clear and don't
change frequently.

15. The waterfall model explores a ___ of development phases during the development of a system.

A)Physical progression

B)Logical progression

C)Both A and B
D)None of the mentioned above

Answer: C) Both A and B

Explanation:

The waterfall model explores a logical progression of development phases during the development of a
system. A waterfall model describes the process of system development in a linear sequential manner;
here every phase in the cycle of development only starts when the previous phase is complete.
