Is a Waterfall model an Incremental development model?


I was wondering if a Waterfall model is an incremental model because technically each phase of the Waterfall model adds on a little more.

Thus saying this I have read from quite a few different websites that it is not incremental.

Can someone please provide examples of both Iterative and Incremental models as I find the 2 a bit confusing?


Solution

  • A Waterfall model is neither Incremental nor Iterative because it develops the whole system at once, without any increments or iterations.
