01. SDLC stands for __________

  1. Software development life cycle
  2. Software design life cycle
  3. System design life cycle
  4. System development life cycle

Answer : A
Explanation: SDLC stands for Software development life cycle. Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a process used by the software industry to analyze user requirements and then design, develop, test and maintain high quality softwares. The SDLC aims to produce a high-quality software that meets or exceeds customer expectations, reaches completion within times and cost estimates. So, option A is correct.

02. The spiral model was originally proposed by

  1. IBM
  2. Barry Boehm
  3. Royce
  4. Pressman

Answer : B
Explanation: The spiral model was originally proposed by Barry Boehm. So, option B is correct.

03. Agile Software Development is based on

  1. Incremental Development
  2. Iterative Development
  3. Both Incremental and Iterative Development
  4. Linear Development

Answer : C
Explanation: In agile Software Development, the software is developed in increments with the customer specifying the requirements to be included in each increment and the highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. They are iterative because they work on one iteration followed by improvements in next iteration and so on. So, option C is correct.

04. Which of the following is a functional requirement

  1. Portability
  2. Robustness
  3. Maintainability
  4. None of the above

Answer : D
Explanation: All of the above mentioned are non-functional requirement which represents the quality of the software. So, option D is correct.

05. What is the major advantage of using the Incremental Model?

  1. Easier to test and debug and it is used when there is a need to get a product to the market early
  2. Customer can respond to each increment
  3. It is used when there is a need to get a product to the market early
  4. Easier to test and debug

Answer : D
Explanation: Major advantage of using the Incremental Model is that it is generally easier to test and debug than other methods of software development because relatively smaller changes are made during each iteration and is popular particularly when we have to quickly deliver a limited functionality system. So, option A is correct.

06. Selection of a model is based on

  1. Requirements
  2. Development team
  3. Users
  4. All of the mentioned

Answer : D
Explanation: Selection of a model is based on all of the above mentioned: Requirements, Development team and Users.

07. Purpose of process is to deliver software

  1. In time
  2. With acceptable quality
  3. That is cost efficient
  4. Both in time & with acceptable quality

Answer : D
Explanation: Purpose of process is to deliver software Both in time & with acceptable quality.

08. Which one of the following is not a software process quality?

  1. Portability
  2. Productivity
  3. Timeliness
  4. Visibility

Answer : A
Explanation: Portability is not a software process quality. So, option A is correct.

09. What are the attributes of good software?

  1. Software maintainability
  2. Software maintainability & functionality
  3. Software functionality
  4. Software development

Answer : B
Explanation: Good software should deliver the required functionality and maintainability however, Software development is not an attribute but a fundamental. So, option B is correct.

10. Efficiency in a software product does not include ______________

  1. Processing time
  2. Responsiveness
  3. Licensing
  4. Memory utilization

Answer : C
Explanation: Efficiency in a software product does not include licensing.
