Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement that "The Agile Methodologies era favors close cooperation between developers and clients" is true. Option A describes the early era of systems development, which existed before the rise of the professional software industry. Option B is contradictory as the artist-as-developer era was characterized by a focus on creativity, individualism and flexibility, rather than engineering principles. Option D and E are both incorrect because Agile Development formally began in the 1990s with the Agile Manifesto.
