| A configuration is found when? | A Specific version of each artifact from which a given version of the complete product is built |
| What is a Version Control Tool? | A tool that maintains detailed records of deviations for every version of the product |
| Configuration Control during post-delivery maintenance using a team of programmers? | Is difficult when programmer simultaneously maintain a product and Requires a programmer to create copies of artifacts |
| The team Freezes refers to what process? | It allows the software to only be edited by a single person at a time. It maintains a logical step forward so that the same code is not edited twice |
| Once coding of an artifact has been completed, it should immediately be destroyed informally by the programmer? | False |
| What is a Build Tool? | A tool that assists in selecting the correct version of each compiled code Artifact to be linked to form a specific version of a product |
| An activity is a minor unit of work that has a beginning and an end? | False |
| Explain your understanding of the Productivity Gains with using CASE technology? | Better Communication and Version Control |
| What is the difference between a life cycle model and a life cycle? | The model is a description on how to build the software and the life cycle is a series of steps in the build |
| What is the moving target problem? | When affordability becomes problem, when the clients needs change, and product expansion |
