When developing solutions for mobile devices, in which phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) should technical limitations related to devices be specified?
The technical limitations related to devices should be specified in the initiation phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) when developing solutions for mobile devices. The initiation phase is the first phase of the SDLC, where the project scope, objectives, requirements, and constraints are defined and documented. The technical limitations related to devices are part of the constraints that affect the design and development of the software solutions for mobile devices, such as the screen size, memory capacity, battery life, network connectivity, or security features. The technical limitations should be identified and addressed early in the SDLC, to avoid rework, delays, or failures in the later phases. The implementation, review, and development phases are not the phases where the technical limitations should be specified, but where they should be considered and tested.
