Waterfall Definition

Definition: “Waterfall” in software development refers to a sequential project management approach where the development process flows linearly through distinct phases, including requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, and deployment.

Each phase is completed before moving on to the next, without room for significant iterations or changes once a phase is completed.

Use It In a Sentence: The team opted for a waterfall approach in their software development project, carefully following the predetermined sequence of activities from requirements analysis to coding, ensuring a systematic and structured progression throughout the development lifecycle.
