Consider a project using the Spiral model with 3 cycles. Which statement best describes the process?
AThe project is planned fully in the first cycle, then built in the next two cycles
BEach cycle includes planning, risk analysis, building, and evaluation, improving the product step-by-step
CAll coding is done in the first cycle, and testing in the last cycle
DThe project skips risk analysis if the first cycle is successful
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand cycle activities in Spiral model
Each cycle repeats planning, risk analysis, building, and evaluation to improve the product gradually.
Step 2: Evaluate each option against this process
Each cycle includes planning, risk analysis, building, and evaluation, improving the product step-by-step correctly states the repeated cycle activities and gradual improvement. Others describe incorrect or skipped phases.
Final Answer:
Each cycle includes planning, risk analysis, building, and evaluation, improving the product step-by-step -> Option B
Quick Check:
Spiral cycles = repeated full phases [OK]
Quick Trick:Each cycle repeats all phases for gradual improvement [OK]
Common Mistakes:
Assuming planning happens only once
Skipping risk analysis after success
Thinking coding is done all at once
