This is the end of this software architecture recap. Remember that it was not intended as as a full software architecture class. The goal of this chapter was to help you remember some important concepts we will use along this course course, and to motivate you to learn more about software architecture.

Our second goal with this chapter is to understand the conceptual gaps you have at this point. Your answers will not be graded. The purpose of this test is to generate a diagnosis report regarding the topics that should be reinforced in previous courses. Please be honest in your answers.
