ITPEC FE Subject A April 2026 — Question 39 of 60

Agile model — small cross-functional team, constant evolution, frequent user feedback across all modules.

Every clue in the scenario points the same way: a small team that spans disciplines, a product that keeps changing, and feedback expected continuously rather than at fixed gates. Agile delivers in short iterations, each producing working software the users can react to.

Answer (a)

Why not others:
- (b) Prototyping model — builds a prototype to clarify unclear requirements, then proceeds with development; the feedback loop ends once requirements settle, whereas here it never ends

- (c) Spiral model — iterative but risk-driven and ceremony-heavy, aimed at large projects where each cycle begins with formal risk analysis

- (d) Waterfall model — strictly sequential phases; feedback arrives only after delivery, the opposite of what is required

Key rule: "Constantly evolves" plus "frequent feedback" plus "small team" is the Agile signature. Spiral is also iterative, so use the team size and the absence of formal risk gates to separate them.
