There are various software development approaches defined and designed which are used/employed during development process of software, these approaches are also referred as “Software Development Process Models” (e.g. Waterfall model, incremental model, V-model, iterative model, RAD model, Agile model, Spiral model, Prototype model etc.). Each process model follows a particular life cycle in order to ensure success in process of software development. [Read more…] about What are the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) phases?

What is Software Testing? Basics, Tutorial, Importance, Interview Questions
Software testing is a process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding the software bugs.
- It can also be stated as the process of validating and verifying that a software program or application or product:
- Meets the business and technical requirements that guided it’s design and development
- Works as expected
- Can be implemented with the same characteristic. [Read more…] about What is Software Testing? Basics, Tutorial, Importance, Interview Questions
What is the cost of defects in software testing?
The cost of defects can be measured by the impact of the defects and when we find them. Earlier the defect is found lesser is the cost of defect. For example if error is found in the requirement specifications during requirements gathering and analysis, then it is somewhat cheap to fix it. The correction to the requirement specification can be done and then it can be re-issued.
In the same way when defect or error is found in the design during design review then the design can be corrected and it can be re-issued. But if the error is not caught in the specifications and is not found till the user acceptance then the cost to fix those errors or defects will be way too expensive.
If the error is made and the consequent defect is detected in the requirements phase then it is relatively cheap to fix it. [Read more…] about What is the cost of defects in software testing?
What is Incremental model- advantages, disadvantages and when to use it?
In incremental model the whole requirement is divided into various builds. Multiple development cycles take place here, making the life cycle a “multi-waterfall” cycle. Cycles are divided up into smaller, more easily managed modules. Incremental model is a type of software development model like V-model, Agile model etc. [Read more…] about What is Incremental model- advantages, disadvantages and when to use it?
