    @JarrodRoberson Waterfall is only an anti-pattern when there is a giant brick wall between BA and DEV and requirements are just thrown over the wall and finished software just flys back over after a pre-determined period of time. When continual feedback between BA's DEV and QA occur throughout the development phase then it can and does work effectively for fixed price, set deadline projects. Commented Nov 21, 2011 at 20:41
  • @maple_shaft - Nice breakdown. That is in fact what occurs here. So, it is being mishandled in this way. Commented Nov 21, 2011 at 20:44
