Evaluation Stage

These are the features we evaluate software
Readability - blank lines, indentation, good variable names and internal commentary (pseudocode)
User Interface - how easy it is to use, how it looks
Fitness For Purpose - does what the porogram is supposed to do

Maintenance
Perfective - add in new features
Adaptive - changing the program to work on different platforms
Corrective - fixes any errors not found at testing
