[Year 12 SofDev] Sample questions and examination advice

[Mark Kelly]

Hi Gordon

Oops!  Q1 was a typo - I meant to say 1B, so we agree there.

Q7 - how can you test *before* analysis and design? No product has been 
developed yet - it can't be tested if it doesn't exist  :-)

Q19 - is tricky.  I categorised 'system flow charts' as more of a 
procedural design tool.  Might be wrong there.

Q20 - the firewall should be the first device exposed to the internet, 
so I'm confident it has to be 'D'.  Also, it has to be a switch that 
feeds the workstations, not a firewall.

Cheers
Mark
