Software Development Life-Cycle (SDLC) follows the different activities that are used in the development of a software product. SDLC is also called the software process and it is the lifeline of any Software Development Model. Software Processes decide the survival of a particular software development model in the market as well as in software organization and Software testing is a process of finding software bugs while executing a program so that we get the zero defect software. The main objective of software testing is to evaluating the competence and usability of a software. Software testing is an important part of the SDLC because through software testing getting the quality of the software. Lots of advancements have been done through various verification techniques, but still we need software to be fully tested before handed to the customer.

Abstract


Software Development Life-Cycle (SDLC) follows the different activities that are used in the development of a software product. SDLC is also called the software process and it is the lifeline of any Software Development Model. Software Processes decide the survival of a particular software development model in the market as well as in software organization and Software testing is a process of finding software bugs while executing a program so that we get the zero defect software. The main objective of software testing is to evaluating the competence and usability of a software. Software testing is an important part of the SDLC because through software testing getting the quality of the software. Lots of advancements have been done through various verification techniques, but still we need software to be fully tested before handed to the customer.
