medium📝 Analysis Q14 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Recall Waterfall phase order and rules
Waterfall requires completing one phase fully before starting the next.Step 2: Identify issue with starting Testing before Implementation
Testing before Implementation means testing incomplete or missing code, violating the model's sequence.Final Answer:
Testing before Implementation breaks the Waterfall sequence and may cause incomplete tests. -> Option AQuick Check:
Waterfall = phases done fully in order [OK]
Quick Trick: Waterfall phases must finish fully before next starts [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Thinking Testing can start early in Waterfall
- Believing Implementation and Testing overlap
- Assuming Design phase can be skipped
