Software Engineering - SDLC Models
Why does the iterative and incremental model reduce risks compared to the traditional waterfall model?
ABecause it requires no planning or documentation
BBecause it delivers working software early and allows changes based on feedback
CBecause it completes all design before any coding starts
DBecause it avoids testing until the end of the project
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify risk factors in software development

    Risks come from late discovery of problems and inflexible plans.
  2. Step 2: Compare model features that reduce risk

    The iterative model reduces risk by early delivery and adapting to feedback, unlike waterfall.
  3. Final Answer:

    Because it delivers working software early and allows changes based on feedback -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Risk reduction = Early delivery and feedback adaptation [OK]
Quick Trick: Early working software reduces risk [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Thinking no planning reduces risk
  • Believing testing only at end reduces risk
