Answer

In Software development, the evolutionary prototyping is a method in which developer or the development team first constructs a prototype or a model or you can say a sample for the customer. After receiving some feedback from customers or the users, some subsequent prototypes are also produced and in each subsequent prototype with some additional improvements and advance functionalities. Contrary to the other prototyping techniques that are used in development like rapid or throwaway prototyping, in evolutionary prototyping technique, the developer starts with the best-understood requirements. Note that evolutionary prototyping is similar to incremental development in that parts of the system may be inspected or delivered to the customer throughout the software life cycle model.
