Question

Distinguish between Iteration and incrementation in Software Engineering

Answer 1

Iteration related the method of implementing, it is repeating the work process (and reflecting on how to improve upon it between iterations), while Incremental development is iterating on the whole thing (each iteration is a minimal useable feature set that is potentially shippable). Every iteration you deliver one or more increments to one or more functional areas.
