Software Engineering Methodologies
Software Engineering Methodologies¶
A methodology is a set of tasks, tools and principles used to accomplish some goal. It is logical, structured, repeatable,
Methodologies give details of what should be done in each phase. They do not necessarily specify how. Methodologies are used to implement frameworks.
