Explain the software development lifecycle.
There are seven stages of the software development lifecycle
1.Initiate the project – The users identify their Business requirements.
2.Define the project –
The software development team translates the business requirements into
system specifications and put together into System Specification
Document.
3.Design the system –
The System Architecture Team design the system and write Functional
Design Document. During design phase general solutions re hypothesized
and data and process structures are organized.
4.Build the system –
The System Specifications and design documents are given to the
development team code the modules by following the Requirements and
Design document.
5.Test the system - The
test team develops the test plan following the requirements. The
software is build and installed on the test platform after developers
have completed development and Unit Testing. The testers test the
software by following the test plan.
6.Deploy the system –
After the user-acceptance testing and certification of the software, it
is installed on the production platform. Demos and training are given
to the users.
7.Support the system -
After the software is in production, the maintenance phase of the life
begins. During this phase the development team works with the
development document staff to modify and enhance the application and
the test team works with the test documentation staff to verify and
validate the changes and enhancement to the application software
