Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to carry out rapid application development (RAD), in the context of preparing for software development. The selection and use of suitable RAD tools can have an impact on the cost and quality of a software project.It applies to individuals who are programmers in a variety of information technology areas, who develop software using RAD.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Determine RAD requirements
  • 1.1 Select and use, the most suitable industry-standard tool set
  • 1.2 Implement a prioritised plan using a series of recursive stages of build, and review for delivery of the system
  • 1.3 Implement and incorporate a physical database
  • 1.4 Identify, document, and schedule the modules to be implemented by incremental development techniques
  • 1.5 Identify and formally allocate responsibilities to the authorised user, and to suitably skilled builders, for each module
  • 1.6 Plan for, and document, the endorsement of reviews, administration schedules and development milestones
2. Determine the work metrics
  • 2.1 Set development goals
  • 2.2 Seek and secure agreement on, and adherence to, a single common notation
  • 2.3 Determine the tools, features and techniques most appropriate to the development environment
  • 2.4 Facilitate, plan, develop, and document version and change-control methods
  • 2.5 Facilitate training and exposure for the user participants via RAD
3. Implement the administration method
  • 3.1 Determine and reach agreement of stakeholders on the specifications
