5 common problems in the software development process
What are 5 common problems in the software development process?
Â
1. Poor requirements – if requirements are unclear, incomplete, too general, or not testable, there will be problems.Â
2. Unrealistic schedule – if too much work is crammed in too little time, problems are inevitable.Â
3. Inadequate testing – no one will know whether or not the program is any good until the customer complains or systems crash.Â
4. Featuritis – requests to pile on new features after development is underway; extremely common.Â
5. Miscommunication – if developers don’t know what’s needed or customers have erroneous expectations, problems are guaranteed.
