Pros & Cons of Water Fall Model
* Enforced discipline through documents.
* No phase is complete until the docs are done & checked by SQA group.
* Concrete evidence or progress.
* Testing is inherent in every phase.
* No fair division of phases in the life cycle.
* The following phase should not start until the previous phase has finished
* Document driven model as a result customers cannot understand these.
* Re-design is problematic.
Pros & Cons of V -Model
* Simple and easy to use.
* Each phase has specific deliverables.
* Higher chance of success over the waterfall model due to the development early on during the life cycle.
* Works well for small projects where requirements are easily understood.
* Very rigid, like the waterfall model.
* Little flexibility and adjusting scope is difficult and expensive.
* Software is developed during the implementation phase, so no early prototype software are produced.
* Model doesn’t provide a clear path for problems found during testing phases.
