Question 22

After several weeks of work, the development team delivered its product to the customer. Unfortunately, the customer refused to sign off on the product, stating that it doesn't include all of the functionality they need. Which type of project life cycle was MOST likely used for this project?
  • A Predictive
  • B Just-in-time
  • C Adaptive
  • D Agile
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Just-in-time relates to maintaining a minimal amount of materials in inventory. Agile is a type of adaptive life cycle. In an adaptive life cycle, the requirements are adapted throughout the development process, based on ongoing feedback from the customer/stakeholders. In a predictive life cycle, most of the requirements definition and planning is completed upfront, before development takes place.
