- Iterative: In this the process start with simple implementation of small set of requirements and repeat with same stages.
- Evolutionary: It is combination of iterative and incremental model. At starting it will implement big set of requirements and later will deliver small sets
- Agile: it is a combination of iterative and incremental model. Agile brake the product in small sets and deliver. Each release lasts from about 1-3 month with define set of teams.
MODELS:-
Waterfall model which is old model who required information, analysis, Design, testing and development all phases are very important in waterfall model when stakeholder using this model.
