Software Process and Product – 2

1. If a software production gets behind schedule, one can add more programmers and catch up.
a) True
b) False

2. Choose an internal software quality from given below:
a) scalability
b) usability
c) reusability
d) reliability

Answer:c
Explanation: rest all are external qualities which are visible to the user.

3. RUP stands for____________ created by a division of ____________.
a) Rational Unified Program, IBM
b) Rational Unified Process, Infosys
c) Rational Unified Process, Microsoft
d) Rational Unified Process, IBM

Answer:d
Explanation: None.

4. The RUP is normally described from three perspectives-dynamic, static & practice.What does static perspective do ?
a) It shows the process activities that are enacted.
b) It suggests good practices to be used during the process.
c) It shows the phases of the model over time.

Answer:a
Explanation: None.

5. The only deliverable work product for a successful project is the working program.
a) True
b) False

Answer:b
Explanation: A working program is only one part of a software configuration that includes many elements. Documentation provides a foundation for successful engineering and, more important, guidance for software support.

6. Which phase of the RUP is used to establish a business case for the system ?
a) Transition
b) Elaboration
c) Construction
d) Inception

Answer:d
Explanation: None.

7. Which one of the following is not a fundamental activity for software processes in software engineering ?
a) Software Verification
b) Software Validation
c) Software design and implementation
d) Software evolution
e) Software specification

Answer:a
Explanation: Software Verification is accounted for in implementation & testing activity.

8. A general statement of objectives is the major cause of failed software efforts.
a) True
b) False

Answer:a
Explanation: A formal and detailed description of the information domain, function, behavior, performance, interfaces, design constraints and validation criteria is essential which can be determined only after thorough communication between customer and developer.

9. The longer a fault exists in software
a) the more tedious its removal becomes
b) the more costly it is to detect and correct
c) the less likely it is to be properly corrected
d) All of the mentioned

Answer:d
Explanation: None.

10. Component-based Software Engineering allows faster delivery.
a) True
b) False

Answer:a
Explanation: Due to using previously tested components they produce more reliable system at a faster rate.

v. Manufacture
vi. Maintain
a) 2, 4, 5, 1, 6, 3
b) 4, 2, 5, 1, 3, 6
c) 2, 4, 5, 1, 3, 6
d) 4, 2, 5, 1, 6, 3
