UNIT ONE
1. List and identify system development methodologies?
Ans: The various system development methodologies including: waterfall model, agile method, and
Rapid application development (RAD).
A system is an interconnected set of business procedures used within one business unit working
together for a purpose.

and better performance and productivity.
19. What is the System analysis and Design?
Ans: System Analysis and Design is the mechanism by which people build (Automated) information
System.
Ans: This method is extremely important because it involves investigating the current system
documentations.
Ans: Unit testing: each unit in the system is tested. Output is tested against the given output.
Ans: Integration Testing: Units already tested and debugged are integrated to form the complete
system and integrated system is tested at this stage.
34. What is the system testing?
Ans: System testing: this is the complete system is tested for its outputs for the given inputs. 57.
35. What is the acceptance testing?
Ans: Acceptance testing: Acceptance or user acceptance testing is carried out at the late stages of
testing. This testing is carried out at with the user of the system and the user is allowed to use the
system.
36. What is the deployment of the system?

at this stage.
37. List the different deployment approaches to deploy a system?
What are the different types of deployment system?
Ans: The deployment approaches:
❖ Direct deployment . in si toos loogu guuro system ka cusub. Lana joojiyo kii hore.
❖ Parallel deployment . labada system in la isla isticmaalo.
