[Year 12 SofDev] SD exam - C1b - milestone

[Darren Scott]

Same thought as Lisa … I still pull out the “classic” milestones from way back, adapted to the new study design: analysis ends with the SRS, design ends with the blueprint, development ends with the functioning program/system, etc. In this case “software installed on system” was the safest I came up with. I don’t envy the exam markers though …

IMO Students would definitely need to have generated their own additional milestone, as none of the tasks listed are suitable for that purpose.

This one perplexes me.

We are asked to name a milestone for the project, yet none of the listed activities have zero duration.

Are students meant to invent a milestone, such as "End of Project" rather than identify and name one that has been given to them?

What did you guys say for that question?
