Each question is followed by evaluation scheme.
Q1. Waterfall Model, V-Model and Spiral Model are of the software development processes. Companies are
using these models to have a systematic and defined approach in software development. Which of the four
phases are involved in the software development process?
Answer : Four phases in software development process :
There are various software development approaches defined and designed which are used/employed during
development process of software, these approaches are also referred as “Software Development Process
Models”(e.g.Waterfall model,incremental model,V-model,iterative model,etc.).Eachprocessmodel followsa
particular life cycle in order to ensure success in process of software development.
Software life cycle models describe phases of
Q. 2 Software estimation is the first phase of project planning and it is the process of
judging a software product and solving the problem associated with the software
project. We follow some important steps to achieve reliable cost and effort estimates.
Explain the different estimation models and estimation techniques.
Ans : Different estimation models:
There are many models for software estimation available and prevalent in the industry.
Researchers have been working on formal estimation techniques since 1960. Early work in
estimation which was typically based on regression analysis or mathematical models of
other domains, work during 1970s and 1980s derived models from historical data of
various software projects.

2. Q3. a. You are a SCM manager in a software company. How will you establish a software configuration
management process in a company?
Answer : Software configuration management process :
In software engineering, software configuration management (SCM) is the task of tracking and controlling
changesinthe software, part of the larger cross-discipline field of configuration management." SCMpractices
include revisioncontrol andthe establishmentof baselines.If something goes wrong, SCMcan determine what
was changed and who changed it. If a configuration is working well, SCM can determine how to replicate it
across many hosts.
Procedure :
CM is the practice of handling changes systematically
b. You are appointed as a software developer in a software company and you have been asked by your
project manager to check detailsof the bugsfrom the previousversion.How will you gather detailsassociated
with the various bugs in the previous version?
Answer: A bugtracking systemordefecttrackingsystemisa software applicationthatisdesigned to help keep
track of reportedsoftware bugsinsoftware developmentefforts. It may be regarded as a type of issue tracking
system.
Many bug trackingsystems,suchas those usedbymostopensource software projects,allow usersto enter bug
reports directly. Other systems are used only
Q4. a. If you are a software engineeryoumust be expertin the field of software, hardware and also database.
It has been listed by the industry professionals that time and effort are the most important factors in the
system analysis stage. Briefly explain the steps used in system analysis.
Answer : Steps used in system analysis :
1.Identify system users
2. Define main users goals
3. Define system usage patterns
4. Invent functional solutions to meet users and usage patterns
5. Define main navigation paths
b. If you are a software developer in small company, how will you conduct a specification review?
Answer : Conduction of specification review :

1.two major benefits to the specification authoring body:
2.It provides a very thorough review of the specification.
3.A complete set of test assertions (
Q6. What are the different methods of software prototypes and tools?
Answer : Software prototype :
Software prototyping, refers to the activity of creating prototypes of software applications, i.e., incomplete
versionsof the software programbeingdeveloped.It is an activity that can occur in software development and
is comparable to prototyping as known from other fields, such as mechanical engineering or manufacturing.
A prototype typicallysimulatesonlyafewaspects of, and may be completely different from, the final product.

3. Methods of software prototype :
1.Horizontal prototypes
The purpose of a horizontal prototype is to develop one
Q.5 Write short note on
a. Unit testing
b. System testing
c. Debugging
d. Verification and validation
Ans : a. Unit testing :
Unit testing, also known as component testing, refers to tests that verify the
functionality of a specific section of code, usually at the function level. In an object-
oriented environment, this is usually at the class level, and the minimal unit tests
include the constructors and destructors.
These types of tests are
b. System testing :
System testing of software or hardware is testing conducted on a complete, integrated
system to evaluate the system's compliance with its specified requirements. System
testing falls within the scope of black box testing, and as such, should require no
knowledge of the inner design of the code
c. Debugging :
Debugging is a methodical process of finding and reducing the number of bugs, or
defects, in a computer program or a piece of electronic hardware, thus making it
behave as expected. Debugging tends to be harder when various subsystems are
tightly coupled, as changes in one may cause bugs to emerge in another. Many books
have been
d. Verification and validation:
In software project management, software testing, and software engineering,
verification and validation (V&V) is the process of checking that a software system
meets specifications and
Q6. List and explain any 5 principles of design fundamentals.
Answer : Principles of design fundamental : Principles applied to the elements of design that bring them
togetherintoone design.Howone applies these principles determines how successful a design may be . Good
design,muchlike anything, starts with understanding the basics. Applying the following design principles will
help us avoid design disasters and allow you to communicate your key
